My result for Are You a Jackie or a Marilyn? Or Someone Else? Mad Men-era Female Icon Quiz…

You Are a Katherine!

 

Katherines are energetic, lively, and optimistic. They want to contribute to the world.

 

How to Get Along with Me

  • Give me companionship, affection, and freedom.
  • Engage with me in stimulating conversation and laughter.
  • Appreciate my grand visions and listen to my stories.
  • Don’t try to change my style. Accept me the way I am.
  • Be responsible for yourself. I dislike clingy or needy people.
  • Don’t tell me what to do.

 

 

What I Like About Being a Katherine

  • being optimistic and not letting life’s troubles get me down
  • being spontaneous and free-spirited
  • being outspoken and outrageous. It’s part of the fun.
  • being generous and trying to make the world a better place
  • having the guts to take risks and to try exciting adventures
  • having such varied interests and abilities

 

 

What’s Hard About Being a Katherine

  • not having enough time to do all the things I want
  • not completing things I start
  • not being able to profit from the benefits that come from specializing; not making a commitment to a career
  • having a tendency to be ungrounded; getting lost in plans or fantasies
  • feeling confined when I’m in a one-to-one relationship

 

 

Katherines as Children Often

  • are action oriented and adventuresome
  • drum up excitement
  • prefer being with other children to being alone
  • finesse their way around adults
  • dream of the freedom they’ll have when they grow up

Katherines as Parents

  • are often enthusiastic and generous
  • want their children to be exposed to many adventures in life
  • may be too busy with their own activities to be attentive

I had quite hoped to be a Bette Davis, but I am pleased to be a Katherine Hepburn.

About three-quarters of the description is true. Points to anyone who can guess which three-quarters.

Katherine’s pretty good. I’m Ingrid Bergman, but the only movie of her’s I’ve seen is Casablanca.

A lot of that sounds like the Cindy I know. :)

I took the test and apparently I’m a Grace:
