Do you know what your blood type is? This is not only of medical concern, but supposedly also reveals something about your personality. Does the Japanese typology apply to you?

Do you have blood type A, B, AB or 0? You do not know? But you should! If only because it is important when you need medical help. Anyone who is esoteric may also do something with the Japanese blood group typology. It is based on the theory that our blood group not only provides medical information, but also says a lot about the character. Do not you think? Of course you don't have to, because there is no scientific evidence for this. For anyone interested, continue here.

Where does the typology come from anyway?

The blood type theory was first mentioned by the doctor Kimata Hara, who in 1916 saw a connection between a person's blood type and personality. Blood group clustering got a bitter aftertaste at the end of the 20s when the psychologist Takeji Furukawa took up the theory again to assign certain characteristics to certain population groups (which is reminiscent of the racial theory of the Nazis). Fortunately, Furukawa's assumptions were forgotten after the war. Today the Japanese blood group theory is more like our horoscope.
