Traci Lords
approach to life and appearances

The following is a description of Traci's basic stance toward life, the way others see her, the way Traci Lords comes across, the face she shows to the world. In the page about motivation you will read about the inner Traci Lords - 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 Traci Lords" may not shine through and others may be in for so a few surprises once they get to know Traci a little better. This page describes the disguise Lords wears, her role in life, while the page about motivation talks about the real person beneath the disguise.

She is a natural diplomat, reasonable, tolerant, fair, always willing to listen to varying viewpoints, and prepared to see the other side of an issue. Even if she strongly disagrees with someone, Traci Lords will try to find points of similarity and agreement rather than emphasizing the differences. She often avoids taking an extreme or one-sided stance on anything. Traci has a strong desire for harmonious and pleasant relationships, and revels in a spirit of cooperation, compromise, friendship, and fairness. Traci Lords very much wants to be liked and because of her need for approval and acceptance, Lords is easily influenced by others' opinions, especially those expressed by the young. She so much wants to please that often Traci Lords will suppress her own intense or unpleasant feelings in order to avoid offending others. Sometimes Lords' politeness is interpreted as being phony or wishy-washy.

Her need to create harmony extends to her physical environment and personal appearance as well. Traci Lords appreciates beauty and has a natural sense of balance, symmetry, and proportion. She does everything in good taste, with a sense of style and art. From her home furnishings to her choice of clothing, everything must be aesthetically appealing, not simply functional or utilitarian.

She also feels that relationships are a form of art - one that Lords is especially interested in and usually quite skilled at, for Traci possesses tact and acute awareness of other people. Marriage is very significant to her and finding the right person to share her life with is extremely important. Being part of a close relationship seems natural to Traci Lords - she is not an independent loner. Having a partner increases her self-confidence. Traci Lords does have a tendency, however, to become overly dependent on her partner and perhaps not to develop a clearly defined identity outside of the relationship. Finding the balance between being herself and blending and uniting with another is a challenge for Traci.

Others see Traci Lords as an agreeable, smooth, harmonious, and "nice" person. Though there may be much more to her, this is the sort of face Lords shows to the world. She possesses personal charm and an understated, non-combative manner. Her motto could be "one catches more flies with honey than with vinegar" for Traci Lords usually adopts a friendly, cooperative approach rather than a strong, forceful, I'm-going-to-conquer-the-world attitude.

Traci Lords has a tendency to live in a world of her own, a world that is likely to be far from reality. Traci wants to make a big impression, and with her dazzling personality she knows how to put on a brilliant show.
