That's true I suppose. Although this guy (http://babyboyfreberg.typepad.com/) is an exception to your rule. He used to go out with a friend of mine. I never even thought about not sharing emotions in my blog until I read his blog - which is page after page of raw emotion. I can't finish reading most of his posts. I just cringe =)
My dad is stoic silent Clint Eastwood type who grew up in the 50s, and my mom was a nurse for 40 years so she is used to shutting off her emotions at will (which after that long is pretty much all the time). I don't really blame society in general on being emotionally stoic, but my folks. And that's just how they were raised. So I don't know...maybe it is society that is at fault.
Relate a cheese grater and a vagina? Eeeek....not even going there!
I was actually disappointed in the results. I was hoping to be a gothic femme fatale that hangs out in the shadows at parties smoking cloves. Too much of an extrovert now for that I think =)
