According to the Jung type test, I'm ESTP.
--- Quote --- (click to show/hide)According to Myers-Briggs, ESTPs are hands-on learners who live in the moment, seeking the best in life, wanting to share it with their friends. The ESTP is open to situations, able to improvise to bring about desired results. They are active people who want to solve their problems rather than simply discuss them.
According to Keirsey, ESTPs, or "Promoter Artisans", are the most adept among the types at influencing other people. Promoting is the art of maneuvering others to one's position. Concrete in speech and utilitarian in action, they are smooth operators. The ESTP knows everyone who matters and everything there is to do because they are very resourceful, always knowing where the fun and action is. They like to indulge themselves in the finer things in life and to bring other people with them. Their goal in life is to sell themselves and their ideas to others. Dramatic and debonair, they are gifted at earning others' confidence.
According to Keirsey, based on observations of behavior, notable Promoters might include John F. Kennedy, Teddy Roosevelt, Madonna, and Donald Trump.

Feels like I was reading my horoscope or something. It's about half right.

I see it as clockwise, but then again silhouettes of naked women do not bring out the best of my cognitive processes.

I originally used a spoiler because the image was large & just tried to reduce visual/motion clutter in the topic. I also "hid" my hint with font size/color for those who wanted to just try and guess why it's a trick question without someone telling them what to look for.
(click to show/hide)Like I said, I can change her direction at will. She is spinning neither clockwise nor counterclockwise ... each person who looks decides what direction they "want" to see her spinning. Notice the axis through her center of gravity that she spins around. You can shift your viewpoint for it to be slanted "away" from you or "toward" you, and her spin direction then changes.
It's a pretty classic optical illusion; first time I saw it with this dancer, but I've seen several similar examples before. It's a negative/positive space perception test. You can view a mask as having a positive or a negative topology; this is just another way to play with the same shift using motion instead of being static.

In fact an optical illusion is still just an illusion - so there's a "correct" answer - the girl's just a 3d model that hasn't any shadow/light applied to it (if it had you'd clearly see how she was really rotating, however you only get the silhouette of the girl and the perspective is chosen so that you can mistake the rotation - so that if you overlook some details it would be "easy" to get the illusion that she is rotating counter-clockwise). The same's with the example with the mask (in this case it is also a matter of shadows - you can think of the mask as either "in" or "out" depending on the shadows/the postion of the light source) - what's more if you hadn't noticed you need some time to "adjust" to the illusion - because it is an illusion - it has flaws - so in order to overlook them you need a little time I'd guess.

OK, I see it now. It took me a few minutes of staring at it before I finally figured out that my brain was assuming some details on the female form that simply don't exist since the entire body is blackened. My perception actually shifted for the first time when I focused on the shadow of her foot at the bottom of the screen.

You are wrong sorry. This picture is a well known one and there is no "good" answer as of what way she is rotating. In fact it's the all point, but it's very hard once you think she is turning one side to try to see her the other side.
