What is your attitude to morals, sex and honesty?
The fascinating personality test below was written by a Sydney marriage
expert who is a qualified psychologist. It began as a dinner party
conversation gimmick, but it has been prepared in this form for readers
to test themselves.
To do the "test" you must give your honest opinion about morals and
honesty of the four characters in our story of Sherwood Forest.
Forget any preconceived ideas you may about them - this is a different
sort of story from all the others.
"The Sheriff of Nottingham captured Little John and Robin Hood and
imprisoned them in his maximum-security dungeon. Maid Marion begged the
Sheriff for their release, pleading her love for Robin. The Sheriff
agreed to release them only if Maid Marion spent the night with him. To
this she agreed. The next morning the Sheriff released his prisoners.
Robin at once demanded that Marion tell him how she persuaded the
Sheriff to let them go free. Marion confessed the truth, and was
bewildered when Robin abused her, calling her a
slut, and saying that he never wanted to see her again. At this Little
John defended her, inviting her to leave Sherwood with him and
promising life-long
devotion. She accepted and they rode away together..."
Now in terms of realistic every-day standards of behaviour, put Robin,
Marion, Little John and the Sheriff in the order in which you consider
they showed the most morality and honesty. There is no "right" answer,
and the following is the
psychologist's estimate of you for each of the 24 arrangements.
