The Simple Girl Index

As I was reading a blogpost from Chuvaness, I came across about the simple girl index. The above mentioned index is created by Divisoria.

From: Divisoria (www.divisoria.wordpress.com)

In every culture there is an ideal girl. For pinoys? It’s what we can just call “the simple girl”. Ask your guy friend – “so who’s your dream girl?” and he’s going to say, among other things – “I want her to be cute, nice and simple”. Check out your facebook, who are the ones happily married and living the perfect lives? the simple girls. and it really makes you ponder “who’s the simple girl?” so over milk tea, tweets and emails, we’ve decided to put together “the simple girl index” to find out what makes this elusive girl tick.

So, out of curiosity, I took the test and here's my scores:
