You may have noticed that Aona created a really cool thread about how asexuality relates to the Myers Briggs personality scale:


And that got me interested in how asexuals identify on the Four Temperament scale. You can find an explanation of the Four Temperaments here: https://www.catholicmatch.com/institute/temperaments/

 

Please cast your votes. :)

Mix of Choleric and Phlegmatic.

That is very unique, as those two are pretty contrasting. Which is your dominant?

Melancholic to a T (its been in my profile for a while now). Although I can understand people very well that have other temperaments. Alas, I am the self reflecting type and I am usually very mellow in most situations. My patience is profound. 

 

If I had to pick a sub type, I would most def be phlegmatic. But thats in just an "if" situation. I don't fancy myself as phlegmatic, apart from being even-tempered.

Melancholic as the dominate trait and choleric as a close second

Being in the military, you have to react fast to changes of circumstances, usually alone. Now in civilian life, I have to balance my speed with a consensual approach with others and have developed a more laid back attitude. But choleric alone, phlegmatic with others are the dominant traits.

Are any music lovers aware of this?: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symphony_No._2_(Nielsen)

 

The movements of the symphony are intended to describe the four temperaments - Nielsen saw an engraving in a pub personifying them and that gave him the idea. Does it succeed?

 

I'm mixed choleric and sanguine. Which are also my favourite movements of the symphony.

Definitely a mix of melancholic and phlegmatic (voted melancholic but I have traits of both); I've always been described as serious/cynical and analytical yet even-tempered and possessing a dry sense of humor. I'm not a super popular person, but some people appreciate having someone who'll say it how it is.

Me too (well, except for the even-tempered part). Yet my temperament is different than yours :o

Phlegmatic describes me the best.

As expected, I see a majority of votes for the introverted temperament types, but I am surprised at how there are more extrovert temperament votes here than on the Myers Briggs thread.

Except for the part about having a neat desk Melancholic seems to describe me pretty well.

Melancholic fits me best and the test I took came out with that too, with phlegmatic also coming up quite high. I think I fit most of the melancholic traits, apart from the neat desk thing lol.
