Wow for a second there I thought I was on a slam Virgo forum.... a bit harsh and discriminating in itself.
I agree so much with what I read from other Virgos on this site and do believe that there is a bad rap of this nit picking and being too organized that many Virgos start feeling bad about, therefore start down sizing an attribute that is such a small part of the being.
I have 2 friends who are Virgos and I love being around them. I don't think that there is such a deep secret about what a Virgo is made up of other than respect, kindness, loyalty and yes simplicity, this can be misconstrued as too organized- it's easier to create on a clean slate than one that has a lot of chaos.
