What is the most popular type category among designers and why?

I’m doing a project for my Type class…and I wanted to do a bit of a poll.

So for you Graphic Designers out there, what do you think is the most favored type category (Serif, Sans Serif, Modern, Transitional, Old Style, Square Serif) among Designers and why?

This can be either your personal preference or a textbook answer.
Thanks in advanced!!

Serif, because it has been proven to be the most easy to read. When you use a lot of copy, it needs to be Serif.

Headlines are almost always Sans Serif, because they look much better bold or in caps.
