The only truly nonforgivable act to me was Robins, so heres my order... MARION, LITTLE JOHN, SHERIFF, ROBIN: You are essentially a contented person, even if you consider yourself a little superior. You are moral by your own standards, for you believe that morality is what best suits the occasion. (Men) You are sexually uninhibited, more romantic than you may appear, and more dependent on the approval of others than you care to admit. (Women) You like being a woman, you understand what love is, and frankly enjoy sex.

It just amazes me how we all see something so different in one little story. This quiz really fascinates me.

Fansab, I do agree with you that that Robin guy is a piece of work. If I went to all that trouble for him and after he got out he bitched to me about it, I'd go back and ask the sheriff if he would trade another night's sex to put Robin's butt back in the stanky dungeon.

LITTLE JOHN, MARION, SHERIFF, ROBIN: You are the slightly romantic realist. You respect truth, and are broadminded and flexible. Whether you are a man or a woman you are probably a happy person. You like people and they can readily make friends with you. You are not very adventurous, but this does not bother you.

LITTLE JOHN, MARION, ROBIN, SHERIFF: You are fairly broadminded, romantic and reasonably contented. You value kindness greatly and try to live by your ideals. You do not conceal from yourself, or from others, your strong need for security, which may be either emotional or material. (Men) Perhaps you tend to idealize women and credit them with virtues they don't possess. (Women) Your experiences of men have not all been happy, perhaps because you hope for a little too much?

Az, I'm right there with you. Do you know that my husband put Marion LAST! We talked about this quiz and how we saw tings for an hour last night...lol...it is fascinating I told hubby that the word that did it for me was "abused." The writer used that word to describe Robins treatment of Marion and I couldn't get that out of my mind. This is funny how we all read it differently.

Fansab, my bf hasn't taken the test yet, but if he puts Marion in last place, we will be having a long talk, too. I took a different meaning from the part where it said he abused her. I took it to mean he abused her by calling her a . I did't think in the context it meant that he physically abused her. A lot of people are putting Robin last. I think that is just as amazing as putting Little John first. Robin was just a big stupid jerk guy that you wouldn't want to have a relationship with. The sheriff was a person in a position of power that abused that power to possibly imprison innocent people. He used extortion to obtain sex from poor maid Marion and he then possibly released people who by the law were considered criminals back into society. He was a very very bad man! I think all the women that take this test put themselves in Marion's shoes and I have to tell you it seems to be true, at least at TVCH, that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned!

Well I'm a woman and I put Marion after Robin. I put myself in her shoes and I would've come up with another alternative, like a knife in the Sheriff's heart. Anything other than submitting myself, jmo.

Mocha, all I can say I've been waiting for someone besides me to put Marion after Robin. I put the Sheriff last but Marion just before him. It says I'm very old-fashioned and that's true but I also would have found another way. Your way sounds good just about now. It also says that maybe I hope for too much in a man but my reality is that I do have very high standards and waited until a long time until I found the right person and he found me. That is one reason we'll be together forever and we have a profound mutual respect for each other.

MARION, LITTLE JOHN, ROBIN, SHERIFF: We would expect you to be a happy, well-balanced person who likes people and is liked by others. You question whether many conventional views on morality are valid under all circumstances. (Men) Do we detect a sense of chivalry and idealism under the sophistication? (Women) You will expect high standards from the men to whom you give your love LOL Azriel, we do sound a bit high maintenance with that last part...

Well, I'm one of those who put Marion first and Robin last. Speaking only for myself, when I put them in order I didn't imagine Marion happily just jumping into bed with the Sheriff, to save Little John and Robin. Marion putting a knife in the Sheriff's heart would have been one of my other choices as well (although that would be another morality quiz, wouldn't it?) I took it to mean, as a last resort, with no other resources, Marion did what she felt she had to do to save her friends. That being said... she already knew the Sheriff was a degenerate, just for asking her to do this to begin with. Up until then though, she had faith in Robin... but he had already decided what was moral for his own self (the quiz doesn't ask whether you think what Robin did, for him to end up in prison was moral... hmm.) I just think his moral line was the squidgiest so I put him last.

oops... forget any pre-conceived notions, the quiz said. OK, I will try and re-think Robin. All right, I've tried.
