CSpenceFLY 1 #2 April 1, 2008 Without knowing what you are talking about I would say it is because many people with the type A personallity think they are the golden child and they are the bomb when it comes to what ever they are doing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
denete 3 #3 April 1, 2008 I'm not so sure about that Spence. I knew a lot of idiots with fast cars in high school who were definitely NOT in possession of a type-A personality. They did, however, share one common trait: testosterone.SCR #14809 "our attitude is the thing most capable of keeping us safe" (look, grab, look, grab, peel, punch, punch, arch) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BIGUN 1,402 #4 April 1, 2008 Quote The Type T personality has been described by various psychologists as a thrill seeking or risk taking personality. One positive physical outlet for these thrill seeking tendencies is extreme sports, which are a form of deviance. As more participants become involved in various extreme sports, there is a clear formation of subcultures within the individual sports. While the formation of one subculture is often independent of the formation of the other extreme sports subcultures, there are marked similarities. This paper discusses the commonalities of several extreme sports subcultures and the relationship of their development to evolution of the sport.
