I see a black girl and I want to paint her red.

All that spinning tells me she must be in politics.

I'm I the only one that looks at the reflection/shadow to make the decision on spin direction?

If you look at the shadow and think about it, she can only be spinning counterclockwise. Anyone who "sees" clockwise is failing to notice the shadow and it's relationship to the scene and spinning figure.

I see it clockwise. I can do the opposite of what was suggested and cover everything but her head and get her to turn CCW. Then, after uncovering the rest of her, I can see her turn CCW for about 2 spins, then she reverses and continues to turn clockwise.

If I try the suggestion of scrolling down and then back up enough times.. I can see her going clockwise one time and one time only... except for the two as eskimo showed.. in that case... at first.. it looked like they were each going a different direction... after scrolling down.. they were both going counter clockwise and never went the other way again.

counter clockwise always dominates.

You're right, but only because the shadow is cut off by the edge of the pic.

He's right because we can see behind her and see the shadow when it goes behind her. When the shadow disappears it is becuase the leg is in front (towards us) and therefore clipped by the front edge of the pic.
