A lot of people are on here explaining cancers as if they're weak-willed, lazy, and home all the time. I've found the opposite! No other group of people will be more willing to go out late at night, order tons of food and have a party, and entertain you. I particularly notice that Cancer men aren't wussies, and every one of them seems to have a sharp wit. I like the "shell" aspect of a cancer. There's something about cardinal ego and assurance in public that makes me at ease - I'm never afraid that a cancer will say something retarded in front of people or be afraid to "pinch" when provoked...a lot of you are more badass then you let on, aren't you?

I'm a cancer and I am NOT lazy. I've been working since I was 13 yrs old! I've held 2 jobs for 4 years. I like socializing, just not all the time. I love to entertain! The more the merrier. Although I may let people walk all over me -- if you push me too far I FIGHT BACK but, if someone is hurting someone I love WATCH OUT! I defend to the death and trust me, you don't want to mess with me I'm pretty BADASS!

Cancer's come off as "lazy" in that we tend to be easy going and don't "come across" as generating as much activity as many other signs. However this can deceiving, because we are also one of the most tenacious signs and best at business and finances.

And as far as a timid appearance, there is a saying that says "the quiet cat scratches the most". The majority of cancers i know are pretty jovial and friendly and avoid conflict at all costs, yet are intensely ferocious when they find themselves "taken there". Often in life it is the more quiet people that you REALLY need to be worried about. They won't be bitching and yiping over every minor infraction, but when they are upset they are REALLY upset and someone is going to pay---especially with people who hold gruges the way we do.

Well, if you've known a cancer for a LONG time, you'll notice that they wont ever forget anything. They tend to hold grudges. Our intuition is amazing - We can pretty much tell if you're just trying to butter us up with a blunt smile when you hurt our fragile feelings, we can pretty much distinguish if you're being honest with us when you're trying to say "You're sorry". We're complainers, and it's never enough for us if you don't show the affection we crave for constantly. Most cancers don't even know it, but they can also distinguish selfish people, but infact we're being selfish & hypocrites ourselves with the commitment! Cancers always think about love, trust, care, affection, & time - but it's so hard for us to express these thing since we're so sensitive and hurt easily. The key to opening a cancers heart is affection - if there isn't enough, prepare to see the b!tch withen!

One of my good friends is a Cancer, and there's no way in hell he's more badass than me. He's cool as hell though, and may be more of a partyer, but I'm more badass in the traditional sense, you know, willing to start/get caught up in some shit.
