You are a Social Liberal (86% permissive) and an... Economic Liberal (0% permissive) You are best described as a: Socialist Link: The Politics Test on OkCupid.com: Free Online Dating Also : The OkCupid Dating Persona Test

I'm not sure if this is completely accurate, but I'm definitely not surprised. I've never seriously thought of myself as a socialist, but I'm pretty sure if I had to give myself a label that social democrat wouldn't be too far off. I've been thinking a lot lately about how I define myself politically and I realise I've never really thought beyond 'liberal', which is way too broad a term to really define anyone's political ideology.

Hey, I didn't know most of that until I looked it up. ;)

I looked at the Third Way philosophy (which I think is similar to radical centrist--something I didn't know existed, actually) and a lot of it makes sense.

I figured you for Libertarian leanings. It's another philosophy that I agree with in part (I like a lot of the Libertarian attitude towards drug laws, for instance) even though I can't get my head around a bunch of it. But because I agree with some Libertarian stuff, I don't think I could be classified as a socialist (not that I'd be upset if I were, it's a valid category of political thought).
