Hello, my name is Bonnie and I am a Libra.
While we tend to ask “What is your zodiac sign?” here, people on the other hemisphere, especially in Asia, tend to ask another question. Instead, it is common to ask “What is your blood type?” And the reason is most likely not even related to blood drives.
There is a common superstition that blood type can be used to predict a person’s personality. This categorization is thought to have originated and developed in Japan, where studies claim to back it up with proof. There are even some companies in the country that will perform blood tests to determine what jobs applicants would be suitable for.
Enough of that background info….Scroll down to find your blood type and see if you match the predicted traits!
