Straight Edge Poll!

[smiffy]

hello I'm doing a straight edge poll out of curiosity to see if there's a link between straight edged personalities and MBTI.

For the purpose of this poll straight edged ness is defined as taking no alcohol or recreational drugs (excluding caffeine but including nicotine) in any amounts in your normal pattern of life (less say the last 2 months as a time frame)

I'm also going to go one step further and integrate sub categories like religous influence and the topic of sex if you don't mind.

Hard drugs are defined in this context as any thing above pot, weed and marajuna. example crack, cocaine, e, heroin, crystal meth


Oh cool if you would mention your religious orientation if your comfortable on the comments.



Ok I have an idea! How about anything on this chart with a value of more than 1 for the intoxication quantity (or would, if it were added to the chart), is considered "non-Straight-Edge":

I believe in God, am quite spiritual but do not follow any set religion is that agnostic?

Wait where do caffeine and nicotine come into this? Are they considered recreational drugs?

 

[Cecilff2]

Never had the want to try cigarettes or other drugs. Don't need anything to alter my world(I can do that myself already thanks to Ni)

Very very rarely drink.(Maybe once every 6 months or so, and pretty much always wine) Never been drunk though.

So I guess that makes me straight edge.
Christian.

caffeine can we consider that not a drug?

nicotine yes, we will consider that a drug

i only had so many options and had to give the bloody ISXX a chance to vote

Caffine is a drug though.

Caffine is a drug though.

I know, but then tea and coffee drinkers will be put down under recreational use, for the limits of the 45 options I think this will give a better picture of what people are looking to find out.

Hmm... we should redefine straight edge then, I was under the assumption that straight edge meant no use of drugs and unnatural substances that pollute ones body. Caffeine definitely changes ones physical chemical condition.

Quote from Toefur-StraightEdge.com:

Is taking caffeine straight-edge?

Most straight edgers seem to feel that caffeine is not an issue, whilst some do. So you can't really say that taking it is or isn't straight edge. Like a lot of straight edge, it's more about what you feel is right for you, rather than trying to adhere to some strict set of rules.

(I'm not making a judgement just presenting more data.)

voted 2nd one, not for moral issues but because I have asexual tendencies(Im not really interested in sexual activity)

ok for the purpose of this poll, we'll just stick to loose definitions defined at the start of the thread, if you don't like it, you can set up another poll, there is nothing stopping you

Thanks but I'm an ENFP and I believe we could have a separate thread over the definition of straight edge, which I'm not gonna get into. But thanks for the input

lol

You can't smoke as a straight edger?

 

[midnightmelody]

Out of the option I would say the only one I may do is drink. And I'm not talking hard stuff.
I mean like sissy fuzzy navels and margaritas. Stuff that has a lower concetration than Nyquil.
Possibly wine. But this isn't until I'm 21, so I'm pretty much straight edge.

everyone has an opinion on what straight edge is, for the purpose of the poll smoking counts as been non straight edge.


I think I understand your view though
