Kathleen Quinlan
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Kathleen's basic stance toward life, the way others see her, the way Kathleen Quinlan comes across, the face she shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Kathleen Quinlan - her real motivation, which describes the kind of person she is at heart and where her true priorities lie. Study this page and the next one and compare them - there may be significant differences between the two, in which case "the inner Kathleen Quinlan" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Kathleen a little better. This page describes the disguise Quinlan wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

Forward-looking and progressive, she is a person who supports change, innovation, and human advancement, and Kathleen Quinlan is often strongly committed to a humanitarian cause or social improvement. She is extremely aware of the interrelations between all people, and is always projecting personal issues unto a greater whole. Quinlan sees the political or social ramifications of personal actions, and she wishes to contribute something of value to the world, or at least to her community or group.

The ideals of equality, fairness, human rights, brotherhood, and social justice color Kathleen's whole outlook and approach to life. She is truly interested in the good of the whole and not only her own personal well-being.

Sometimes she may overlook or ignore her own and others' personal needs, desires, and feelings, especially if they do not conform to her ideals of how one should feel or act. Though she has little patience for conservative narrow-mindedness, Kathleen Quinlan herself is sometimes dogmatic about her beliefs and ideologies.

She is attracted to the avant-garde, the latest advances in human thought and development, and she is eclectic and cosmopolitan in her tastes. She may consider herself a "global citizen" rather than claiming a narrow, limited identification based on nationality, race, familial heritage, etc. Kathleen Quinlan is strongly influenced by her peer group and the flavor of the times in which she grew up, more so than by parental or family influences. She is involved and active in groups, community efforts, as well as cultural and progressive movements.

On a personal level, Kathleen Quinlan is friendly and expresses a kind of impersonal good will towards others. Quinlan probably has many acquaintances but few really close friends, and much of Quinlan's relationships with others are based on a sharing of common ideals and principles, rather than on emotional ties. Others see Kathleen Quinlan as a good friend and a comrade who is objective, fair and rather detached emotionally. Kathleen does not often show her emotions, and may be unsure about how to respond to others' emotional expression, for she tends to be very rational.

Kathleen Quinlan is also very independent and refuses to be possessed by any individual. Kathleen Quinlan is not comfortable with traditional sexual roles and is inclined to have "liberated" views about marriage, relationships, sharing of child rearing responsibilities, etc. Kathleen Quinlan needs to have a life outside of the personal, domestic sphere and to be involved with people on a broader scale. The nurturing of family ties, and close, deep, personal relationships may take a back seat to Quinlan's work or outside social activities.

She is forceful and energetic and goes for what she wants quite aggressively. She is a doer and an achiever and has a positive "I can" attitude. She may run over people and stir up opposition and conflict because Kathleen Quinlan tends to be very self-centered, or simply oblivious to the needs and intentions of others.

Kathleen Quinlan appears to be sweet to other people, and she knows how to use charm, persuasion, and affection rather than more direct (but possibly disagreeable) methods to get her point across. Being overly concerned with appearances and surface beauty is possible; and if so, Kathleen Quinlan may also seem vain and narcissistic to others.

Kathleen Quinlan appears contained, and perhaps wary or mistrustful as well. She watches her step, and frequently withdraws if her environment does not feel welcoming and safe. As a result, Quinlan may seem much more conservative than she actually is. Kathleen fears making mistakes in social situations, and is extremely sensitive to criticism or rejection. As she matures, Kathleen Quinlan is likely to grow in confidence, because she will learn to depend more on her own evaluation of herself.
