How to analyze people on sight through the science of human analysis : $b the five human types
Benedict, Elsie Lincoln
Characters and characteristics
¶ On the other hand, each one of the five human types has certain points
of strength and from these gets its natural "moral" qualities. We spend
a great deal of energy giving praise and blame but when we realize--as
we are doing more and more--that the type of an individual is
responsible for most of his acts, we will give less of both to the
individual and more of both to the Creator.
Type vs. Training
¶ The most that training can do is to brace up the weak spots in us; to
cultivate the strong ones; to teach us to avoid inimical environments;
and to constantly remind us of the penalties we pay whenever we digress.
Child Training
¶ As this great science of Human Analysis becomes known the world will
understand for the first time "how the other half lives," and _why_ it
lives that way.
We will know why one child just naturally tells fibs while his twin
brother, under identical training, just naturally tells the truth. What
is more to the point we will know this in their childhood and be
prepared to give to each the kind of training which will weed out his
worst and bring out his best.
Short and Stocky
¶ The extreme Muscular type (See Chart 5) is below medium height, though
one of any height may be largely muscular.
The extreme type, of which we are treating in this chapter, is shorter
and heavier than the average. But his heaviness is due to _muscle_
instead of fat. He has the appearance of standing firmly, solidly upon
the ground, of being stalwart and strong.
The Square-Shouldered Man
¶ The Muscular's shoulders stand out more nearly at right angles than
those of any other type and are much broader in proportion to his
height. The Alimentive has sloping shoulders and the Thoracic inclines
to high shoulders. But the shoulders of the pure Muscular are
straighter and have a squareness where the Alimentive's have curves.
This accounts for the fact that most of the square shouldered men you
have known were not tall men, but medium or below medium in height. The
wide square shoulders do not accompany any other pure type, though
naturally they may be present in an individual who is a combination.
Has Proportionately Long Arms
¶ The arms of pure Musculars are longer in proportion to the body than
the arms of other types. The arms of the Alimentive are short for his
body but the extreme Muscular's arms are always anywhere from slightly
longer to very much longer than his height would lead you to expect.
The Pure Muscular Head
¶ A "square head" is the first thing you think of when you look at a
pure Muscular. His head has no such decided digressions from the normal
as the round head of the Alimentive or the kite-shaped head of the
Thoracic. It is not high for his body like the Thoracic's nor small for
his body like the Alimentive's, but is of average proportions.
