In case you were confused

I've always been an active debater, in school and in college. Many, many times I have had friends come up to me shaking their heads saying, "I thought you were someone else. What the hell was that?" Well here's the answer; usually I prefer to debate both sides of a topic. If I can't I debate both sides, I choose the one that I disagree with. I don't know, I guess I always try to see everything from every possible perspective. Personally, it has helped me gain a better understanding of my own opinions and beliefs and of what makes me who I am. Also, one of my pet peeves is that most people don't give a second thought to their beliefs and opinions. So I'm always saying things to make them re-think everything.
