    But you are okay with thumbs up?.... This question tells me a lot about your personality. And it's not flattering.

    Well?..... lost it..... It says you seek approval also.

    Source(s): Just like comments..... I don't need approvals and don't care

    It's almost the same as voicing an opinion in public. Some might like it, some might attack it. It really depends on how you deal with the results and come to the conclusion if your opinion is mainstream or different.
