Life Hacks/Mods Guide/Personality Attributes

Personality Attributes are factors in someone's personality that present in everyone, regardless of culture or upbringing. Everyone has a rating somewhere on one of these personality sliders. Some sliders have 2 features listed. These are cases where an attribute is named differently depending on whether your score in that attribute is high or low. The first name is the name it is called when the trait is high, the second name is the name it is called when the trait is low.

Presentation

How one relates in their day-to-day lives to the people around them.

Confidence

How sure a person is that what they are doing is right, and how sure they are that they will not be harmed in a way that they care about.

Kindness/callousness

How much someone concerns themselves with the well-being of others.

Aggression/Passiveness

How likely a person is to accept or chase out intrusions onto their time or space, or pursue a goal of some kind.

Drive

The things that motivate a person to take/not take action.

Will

The drive to change something that inconveniences or harms you or someone you care about.

NOTE: This trait is best if it is somewhere in the (upper) middle. Both extremes can be detrimental. Someone with exceedingly high will values might waist effort and be thought crazy trying to change something no human being has the ability to change (the force of gravity for instance,) while someone with exceedingly low values may not even take the effort to remove a rock from their shoe as it is cutting a hole in their foot.

Motivation

The drive to do something that is on your physical or mental list of things to do.

NOTE: One can have high motivation values and low will values. In this case, the person's list of things to do will consist entirely of things that other people told them to do.

Obedience

The drive to do what another person wants them to do.

NOTE: Obedience is opposed by will, and mutually exclusive with defiance (cannot have points in obedience if there are points in defiance.) Higher levels of will will make a person less likely to obey. High levels of will and obedience will make a person more likely to attempt to negotiate with the person issuing the orders, or present the problem if they are being asked to do something they can't accomplish, but high levels of obedience means they will still attempt to carry out the other person's will if they cannot negotiate it out.

Defiance

The drive to explicitly go against what another person wants them to do, even if doing so is detrimental to themselves.

Note: Defiance and obedience are mutually exclusive characteristics (cannot have points in defiance if there are points in obedience.) Defiance is enhanced by will. A strong willed person will actively protest orders given to a person they are defiant to and may state outright their intention not to do as they are told, while a weak-willed defiant person may say they will do something and then either not do it or do a poor job of the task they were given.

Self Worth

The drive to take care of your own best interests.

Most people have a sense of self worth that can be described as around 60-70%. Not incredibly high, but not low either. Having a high self worth can create a sense of narcissism, where as a low sense of self worth is associated with depression in the same way that umbrellas are associated with rain (they can exist disconnected from each other, but that is unusual.)

Self Knowledge

(Does not fit cleanly into any category, but this fits the closest.) The drive discover one's own personality traits in order to overcome, alter, or just be at peace with them.

How aware a person is of their own personality traits. Most people have fairly low self knowledge, developing self knowledge normally requires a person to mentally acknowledge their own reactions to things and activities they prefer and they way they treat certain people or avoid doing certain things. Low levels of self knowledge mean a person will be ruled by their personality traits. High levels of self knowledge mean a person can consciously defy their personality traits and attempt to change them.

Subject by subject reactions

A person's opinion on literally every subject on the planet. A person's reaction to a subject can always be measured on this list, regardless of whether it is a person, place, thing, idea, or activity. (If they are not aware the person, place, thing, idea, or activity exists, then they are rated as "Ambivalent.") While this is only one list of points on the slider, there are actually 3 sliders for every subject that exists. The person's conscious slider, the person's sub-conscious slider, and the person's projected slider. The projected slider measures what they tell everyone else through words and observed actions their opinion is, the conscious slider measures what that person acknowledges their own opinion on the subject to be, and the sub-conscious slider is their true opinion on it. The farther these three sliders are from agreeing with each other, the more mental stress it creates for a person when the subject is brought up.

Projected Disgust

Hates something so much they cannot even stand the idea of someone else participating in it.

Disgust

Hates something to the point they cannot stand the idea of being in any way involved in it.

Avoidance

Dislikes something to a point that they will try to avoid being involved in/with it but will get involved if strongly pushed to do so.

Hesitance

Dislikes something to a point that they would prefer not to be involved in/with it but will get involved with a bit of pressuring to do so.

Discomfort

Slightly dislikes something and has a first reaction to avoid it, but can easily be pushed into it.

Ambivalence

Neither likes nor dislikes something, does not really have an opinion.

Slight interest

Reacts positively to a subject, but can easily be distracted toward other things that get their interest more.

Comfort

Reacting positively toward this subject seems like the natural thing to do, and does not get upset by the subject.

Attraction

Will prefer this subject over other available activities.

Passion

Positive thoughts about the subject absorb this person's mind.

Strong or projected passion

Becomes absorbed in the subject so much that it pushes other things out of their life, and may insist upon others sharing the same passion as them.

Sexuality

A person's sexual preferences, things that have to do with the act of sex and reproduction. Note that acts not related to reproduction, fore-play, or homosexual analogs to what would be reproductive acts in a heterosexual pairing are listed as fetishes.

Libido

An attribute that determines how actively one seeks sexual activity and/or orgasm, how often they want sex, and how long sex will keep their interest after their first orgasm of the encounter. An individual will get better orgasms and satisfaction in situations that match their sexual preferences and fetishes.

Heterosexuality

Prefers sex with members of the opposite gender.

Note: having a "true" setting in both homosexuality and heterosexuality makes a person bisexual.

Homosexuality

Prefers sex with members of the same gender.

Note: having a "true" setting in both homosexuality and heterosexuality makes a person bisexual.

PIV

Prefers penis in vagina sex.

Note: it is possible, in rare cases, for a homosexual individual to like PIV sex. It involves having a member of the same gender present as well and treating the member of the opposite gender as just a sex toy while making out with their same-gender partner.

Anal(Male Homosexual)

Uses anal sex as an analog to the heterosexual PIV sex.

Fingering/hand-job(heterosexual)

Uses manual stimulation as a form of fore-play or birth control. (becomes a fetish if this sex act is preferred over PIV sex instead of acting as foreplay or the next best thing to PIV sex.)

Fingering/Cunalingus (female homosexual)

Uses fingers or tongue in partner's vagina as an analog to the heterosexual PIV sex.

Cunalingus/blow job

uses oral sex as a form of fore-play or birth control. (becomes a fetish if this sex act is preferred over PIV sex instead of acting as foreplay or the next best thing to PIV sex.)

Cream pie

Prefers to have semen go inside the vagina in heterosexual sex, or the anus in male homosexual sex over any other place it could possibly go. This is a measurement of the strength of that preference. High levels of cream pie preference will create a strong aversion to condoms, pulling out, or ejaculating during fore-play. Very extreme levels may even prefer rape over masturbation.

Age prefference

Approximate physical/mental age one prefers their sexual partner to be. There will always be a preferred range, an acceptable range, a fringe range, and then everything outside the fringe range is unacceptable. As such, there are actually 6 sliders for this attribute, a minimum and maximum each for the preferred, acceptable, and fringe range of age preference.

In-group/out-group ethnic preference

How willing you are to have sex with someone outside your own ethnic identity. This is measured as a 2 point range from preference for your own identity to preference for other identities. Preference for other identities can be further tuned to specific ethnicity under sexual preference traits.

Standard sexual preferences

There is a standard list of sexual preferences that everyone has, it is just a question of how strong those preferences are and whether or not they can be overridden. These preferences are the result of evolution and are ingrained into every human being's DNA. These preferences differ by gender.

Standard sexual preferences for men

• Young: between the ages of 15-21, prime female reproductive years, is best, but might like them a few years younger. If the selection pool consists 100% of partners who are over 21, then younger is always going to be better.
• 1 to 0.7 hip to waste ratio: Men do not necesarilly want skinny women, they just want women who's waist is smaller than her hips, a 1 to 0.7 ratio being the best. If she has larger hips, then she can have a larger waist as well provided that ratio is still present.
• Firm skin and full lips: These traits denote a lot of estrogen in a woman's blood stream, witch means she has healthier reproductive organs.
• Neoteny: Also sometimes referred to as "pedomorphism." This is a characteristic where, regardless of age, someone looks more child-like. The key features that do this the best are large eyes, short height, and small hands. Neotenous features trigger a protective instinct in men that is hard to resist, and this protective instinct can lead to a relationship.

Standard sexual preferences for women

• Height: Must be tall, especially relative to her. Height means strength witch means better able to protect her and her kids.
• Wealthy: Must have access to resources to provide for the woman and her children, more resources means the woman can feel more secure, so more is always better.
• Confident: Must seem like he can handle whatever challenges come his way. It usually does not matter if this confidence is associated with him being an ass-hole.
• Older: So long as he is not frail due to his age, or soon to reach the age where that will happen, older is always better. The preferred age is usually her own age +50% at minimum, 40 years old at maximum. (Cases of extreme wealth override this calculation completely.) This is more association than anything, older men usually have more of all three of the above listed features, especially wealth. It is really more a factor of betting on a sure thing though, a man of that age has usually already proven his value where as a younger man is a risk.
