sounds pretty accurate but depending on a cancer's life experiences some traits might be more dominant than others. overall sounds about right..

I don't think it sounds pathetic.... I'm not a cancer but I believe this is accurate.... the traits listed as "weakness" are the ones that make me feel so protective of the crabs in my life....this combination of strengths and "weaknesses" is exactly what makes me love them.

I agree with most of what is listed above, however, I do believe that life experiences/upbringing can cause and increase/decrease in the manifestation of certain strengths and/or weakness.
