Liberal stuff:

You prefer documentaries over action movies
You have a messy desk
You think the government should treat the lives of its citizens as equal to those of other countries
You think it's okay for your partner to look at porn alone
You use a modern browser
You prefer the Met to Times Square
You're not completely proud of your country's history

Conservative stuff:

You like dogs more than cats
You think kids should respect authority
You think self-control trumps self-expression
You're not wild about fusion cuisine
You think the world benefits from nations and borders

Not so sure of their metrics, but I've always thought of myself as a "centrist" more so than a strong liberal/progressive. Mostly, though, I just think that libs/progs have better ideas for making life better for people than conserves do.

I know that they construed some of my "slightly prefers" as YOU PREFER statements.
