Where do you fit on my newly created Ethical Philosophy spectrum? Are you selfish and impulse based? Are you selfless and lead by reason? Or maybe your reason leads you to live for yourself. Maybe you like Nel Noddings Feminine ethics, a system of morality based on the impulse to care for others. Find out with this neat selector. Note: This selector is by no means intended to be 100% accurate. Philosophy is a complex thing. Selectors like this are merely tools. All true knowledge comes from within.
