My Least Favourite Question

There's always been something that has bothered me. I'm not talking about when people say "bet" as a past participle of "beat", I'm talking about the question: "What's your type?"

There are many ways to ask this question; I hate it in all of its forms. What are you supposed to say? "Well, I like tall/short/not too tall/not too short/my size/taller than me/shorter than me brunettes/blonds/red-heads, preferably Caucasian/Asian/black"?

It's sickeningly shallow.

Even answers that pertain to have a certain depth that describe a person with ideal qualities that would suit them are superficial. I can't stand categorising of people, and in my opinion, a person's perfect match is simply found (or not found) and people shouldn't go out looking anything in particular.

No, I'm not saying I believe in soulmates (because I really don't) but is somebody's ideal partner so easily definable. Nu-uh! True love can't be defined. :oops:

So don't judge or choose a person based on what they seem to be. Get to know them if you like them, and then make an informed decision.

Try before you buy people!
