GUESS WHO??
Yeah reason.
Thats a curse and a gift. I go through several possibilities through my head of a certain situation, but then I have too many to choose from 🤣 I guess I go for my instincts after that.
Sometimes I just go for instinct straight.
It's like flipping a coin though. Sometimes I make the right decision, sometimes I don't.
Feeling and intuition, as well as reason.
Often I make decisions on feeling though XD I think that's the one I use most, but I don't really trust it.. I just do it.
Not that I'm unreasonable though o_o

Reason. Any other answer would be unreasonable.

I trust intuition, as your "gut reaction" can be subconsciously based on reason and feelings.
If you've ever thought or said "Nice Guys finish last" and really meant it, then you should probably read this LJ post by DivaLion. It's incredibly insightful whether you're male or female.

With me it's a combination of reason and belief. As a scientist I see the world in a very rational and logical manner but at the same time there are so many things we can;t explain and every answer only raises more questions in science so I draw on my beliefs and feelings when reason fails. Though belief, feeling and intuition are all basically the same anyway.
The pen is mightier than the sword...and considerably easier to write with.

Reason.
The rest are BS
and lead to bad endings.
I disagree. Sometimes what a person considers 'reason' isn't reasonable at all. And in a situation where you have to think quickly, there isn't always time to think rationally.
You probably use intuition more than you realize.

I speak of the solid reason,
not what people find to be reasonable
in the situation, since that reasonability
is never static and differs amongst people.
This would make a good manga.
Put a bunch of characters in a sticky situation and have them get out of it in different ways. One uses reason, another intuition (his gut so to say), and etc.
Or a pretty good one shot at the least...

I trust in my beliefs. They are made up of what I consider a Equilibrium of reason and aestheticism. I personally fail to justify most morals before myself without resorting to those values. They aren't inflexible, though.

And you actually believe to be capable of "solid reason"? That is a very unreasonable claim.
