Why is it so horrible to be wrong?

Apparently I cannot be gamine. I'm too tall and too busty and too athletic for that.
But it seems that I am nothing else, either...

With Kibbe it's all about IMPRESSIONS.
It's more a question of whether you APPEAR to be tall or short, than how tall or short you really are. Proportions, you know.
It's more a question of whether you APPEAR to be symmetrical than what a tape measure says.
So when it comes to yin and yang, it's the OVERALL APPEARANCE that matters, not the specifics.

Here's a table about the yin-yang divition in Kibbe categories:
