Manufacturers even market a wide variety of blood-type specific products, including calendars, chewing gum, colas, and condoms.<br>http:\/\/thegreatgeekmanual.com\/blog\/japanese-culture-101-personality-by-blood-type<br>The obsession with blood types began in 1927, when a psychology professor by the name of Furukawa Takeji who work as a high school administrator began observing the the differences in temperament of the students who applied to his school. From his observations, he conjectured that all humans could be divided into two personality types. According to Furukawa, people with blood type A were mildly tempered and intellectual. People with blood type B were just the opposite \u2013 easily roused to anger and unintellectual. Furukawa published a series of articles and books, called \u201cThe Study of Temperament Through Blood Type,\u201d which the public gobbled up, despite a complete lack of hard evidence. Interest in ketsu eki gata waned after Furukawa\u2019s death in 1940, but was revived in 1971 when journalist Masahiko Nomi expanded on Furukawa\u2019s theories in a best selling series of book, \u201cUnderstanding Compatibility from Blood Types.\u201d The new theories associated some blood types to academic success and different types of crime.<br> After Masahiko Nomi\u2019s death, his son Toshitaka Nomi founded \u201cKetsueki-gata Ningen-gaku Kenkyusho,\u201d the Institute of Blood Type Humanics. Since the Institute\u2019s founding, interest in ketsu eki gata has continued to grow. It has been used to hire employees, divide labor forces into blood-type appropriate roles, broker marriages, and even dictate child-rearing techniques. It\u2019s use has become so widespread, in fact, that some people have reported being discriminated against because of their blood type.<br> My Boyfriend Is Type BSouth Koreans in particular have embraced ketsu eki gata on the dating scene. Men with type B blood are reportedly having an increasingly difficult time finding dates. In a recent nationwide survey conducted by a South Korean site, Type-B men were overwhelmingly voted the most difficult blood-type to date. In addition, forty percent of female respondents indicated that they would never marry a type B man. Magazines, television shows, and internet communities have all jumped on the band wagon, espousing the perils of getting involved with a type B man. There was chart-topping song entitled \u201cType-B Men\u201d which featured lyrics describing these men\u2019s short-comings, and even a hit movie, \u201cMy Boyfriend is Type B.\u201d In the movie, the heroine, a type A personality, falls in loves a passionate but completely irresponsible type B personality, and, inevitably, hilarity ensue.<br> Type A: The Farmer<br>Speaking broadly, it is said that people with Type A Blood are calm, composed, levelheaded, and very serious. They have a firm character, and are reliable, trustworthy, and hardheaded. They are shy, introverted perfectionists. They are considerate to others and don\u2019t easily lie. They are loyal to friends and coworkers. They can be secretive, though, and don\u2019t often share their feelings. They try to suppress their own emotions, and because they have continual practice in doing this, they appear strong, when, in actuality, they have a fragile, nervous side, as well. They tend to be hard on people who are not of the same type, and consequently, tend to be surrounded with people of the same temperament. They also don\u2019t hold their liquor well. Type A\u2019s are the most artistic of the groups. They can be shy, cautious, conscientious, reliable, trustworthy, and sensitive. They can also be overcautious, picky, arrogant, and reckless when drunk.<br> Type B:The Hunter<br>People with Type B Blood are curious everything. That may be good, but they also tend to have too many interests and hobbies. They tend to get excited about something suddenly only to drop it again just as quickly. They seem to manage to know which of their many interests or loved ones are truly the most important. B Types tend to excel in things rather than just be average, but they tend to be so involved in their own world that they neglect other things. They have independent spirits with strong personalities. They have the image of being bright and cheerful, full of energy and enthusiasm, but some people think that they are really quite different on the inside. They also don\u2019t really want to have much personal contact with others. While they don\u2019t care what others think of them. They are extremely passionate about the things they hold dear. Type B\u2019s are the individualists of the blood group categories and find their own way in life. Type B personalities can be curious, bright, cheerful, enthusiastic, independent, sensitive, and unpredictable. They can also be superficial, unreliable, selfish, unpredictable, indiscreet, lazy, and impatient.<br> Type AB: The Humanist<br>Type-AB people are an unpredictable, distant lot, but tend to use their heads over their hearts. They are good with money. Type AB\u2019s are the split personalities of the blood groups. They are considerate of other people\u2019s feelings and deal with them with care and caution. On the other hand, though, they are strict with themselves and those close to them. They, therefore, seem to have two personalities: one for those \u201coutside,\u201d and another for people on the \u201cinside.\u201d They often become sentimental, and they tend to think too deeply about things. AB Types have a lot of friends, but they need time to be alone and think things through, as well. They can be both outgoing and shy, confident and timid. While responsible, too much responsibility will cause a problem. They are trustworthy and like to help others. Type AB personalities can be sensitive, considerate, careful, and efficient. They can also be strict, moody, easily offended, critical, and standoffish.<br> Type O: The Warrior<br>Type-O people are outgoing, expressive, and passionate. They are highly motivated, natural leaders. Blessed with a strong physical presence, they aren\u2019t afraid to gamble because they are so convinced they\u2019ll win. Type O Blood people are said to set the mood for a group and to take on the role of creating harmony among its members. Their image is one of being peaceful and carefree. They are also thought to be big-hearted and benevolent, and they tend to spend money on others generously.They are natural athletes. They tend to be obsessive in their quest for success, and this can make them boring to others. Type O\u2019s are outgoing, and very social. They are initiators, although they don\u2019t always finish what they start. They appear to be levelheaded and trustworthy, but they often slip and make big blunders inadvertently. That is also the what makes O Types lovable. Creative and popular, they love to be the center of attention and appear very self confident. Type 0 personalities can be carefree, generous, independent, flexible, idealistic, goal-oriented, athletic, competitive, and adaptable. They can also be clumsy, flighty, jealous, greedy, unreliable, obsessive lover, vain loudmouths.<br> Romatic Compatability by Blood Groups:<br>A is most compatible with A and AB<br> B is most compatible with B and AB<br> AB is most compatible with AB, B, A and O<br> O is most compatible with O, and AB<br>\u201cJapanese Culture 101: Personality by Blood Type\u201d was written by Pipedreamergrey and originally appeared at The Great Geek Manual. It may be reposted as long as this notice and its hyperlinks remain intact.<br> Disclaimer: This article was written by a B type personality. Information presented here may be unreliable.<br> Footnote: I came across the following excerpt just after writing this post:<br> The popular indigenous typological system called ketsueki-gata holds that one can categorize people according to blood types A, B, AB and 0. This type of classification only dates back to 1927 when it was first proposed by Furukawa Takeji, a professor at Tokyo Women\u2019s Teacher\u2019s School.10 In this scheme there are four basic types (Table 3). Blood Typology has broad applications: a nursery school in Saitama used it to divide students into different groups, and Mitsubishi Electronics once relied on it when they put together product development teams composed of only AB blood types. One of the most interesting developments is the combination of western astrology with Japanese blood typology. This means that for each of the twelve zodiac signs there can be further elaborations made on the basis of ketsueki-gata, yielding forty-eight separate personality profiles. Almost every woman\u2019s magazine now follows this syncretic practice.<br> Alternatively, the twelve western zodiac signs may be classified as one of four elements (Air, Earth, Water or Fire), and combined with the four Blood Types to produce sixteen categories. In one article, each of the sixteen combinations is accompanied by an individual \u201cLove Biorhythm Graph.\u201d&#8221; A paradigm chart also cross-references all the possibilities by sixteen male types, yielding 256 fortunes in a \u201cYou and your boyfriend\u2019s love compatibility chart.\u201d To illustrate, a woman who is a Water sign with Blood Type AB will do well with a man who is an Earth sign with Blood Type A, while someone who is a Water sign with Blood Type O should stay away from men who are Fire signs with Blood Type A.<br> People types: Personality classification in Japanese women\u2019s magazines<br>Laura Miller.
