Hot Take: Your “Type” Isn’t a Personality

Some people wear their “type” like it’s a badge of honor. Brunettes only. Gym rats only. Artsy but emotionally unavailable? Bonus points. But here’s the truth: having a “type” isn’t a personality. It’s just a shopping list.

You can rattle off your preferences like you’re building a Sims character, but none of that says anything about who you are. Attraction is fine, but if your entire identity is built on who you swipe right on, then congratulations you’ve got no identity. You’re not interesting because you like blondes with lip gloss or guys over six feet. You’re interesting if you bring something to the table yourself.

Final Thought: Your type might get attention, but your personality is what keeps it.
