Frida Kahlo, because the troll post was closed :/

I agree, I've seen this type of research before. However not every homophobe is a repressed gay/bi/lesbian person. Some hate, because of religious reasons, some because that's how they were raised and some because they simply don't understand it. There are many reasons. So you are not even...

This is such a good advice. Thank you. *stares into your eyes**squeezes your arm* :confused: Is this as uncomfortable for you as it is for me? I was just being curious about what works for others. I tried touching people :D when I was in university and would meet a lot of new people...

I've actually learned to do a lot of the things mentioned here through trial and error. But how do you start touching people? Randomly touching someone feels so awkward that I can't do it even on my most social days. If it's something like a hug for hello/goodbye or a handshake then it's fine...

Ummm.... I've seen so many comments from men that contradict what you are saying, but I'm just going to link to the latest one. She covers men's comments after the 3:40 mark, but I'm putting the whole video below, because it's all about shaming women for having sex...

What kind of sneaky behavioral programming would you recommend?

You shouldn't stress about it so much. You should just bite the bullet and talk to them. You take the same classes and you have a common topic. Start small - ask them to clarify something about the lecture, ask them if they understood what the teacher was talking about. If you are nervous about...

I'm often told that I have a relaxing presence. People say that it's my willingness to discuss any topic, give them useful advice and not judge them/react emotionally. I think those are very INTP traits.

So what do you think would improve the situation for both genders? Up until this point I haven't asked for any sources, but I'm asking you to source yourself on why men rape. I admit I haven't actively researched the topic, but from what I've read there hasn't been any conclusive research...

You are talking about biology, but you are not willing to discuss it. I said that I like the idea of women being picky, but I can't say that I honestly believe they are. I see plenty of people sleeping around and plenty waiting for true love, some even saving themselves for marriage (both men...

I don't see anything surprising in either position. But to answer you question - I like the idea of women having higher standards and not sleeping with the first guy they see. That doesn't mean that I can't entertain the theory of women being just as inclined towards promiscuity as men are. A...

I looked up some statistics and the numbers don't seem that drastically different to me, especially considering that infidelity carries more risk for women than for men. Also attitudes towards women sleeping around are still more negative then towards men. Basically 10% - 15% of married women...

^Which app do you use? I've gone through a few, but can't seem to find a good one. OP, I haven't read "Getting Things Done", but just from the Wikipedia description it looks like something that would make me waste time with too many details. Is this true?

I didn't care about socializing when I was in high school. I wasn't oblivious, but I just wasn't interested in people. I became very social in my university years. I can be friendly and keep the conversation going. Some people even consider me very warm and caring. But then if I don't want to...

My inability to truly feel attachment towards another person. I feel like I've already spent whatever emotions I had and can't form real bonds. That puts me in a bad place where any sort of relationships are concerned. Also I wish I could be friends with more people, but it's more of a wish...

Another vote for Solaris and Arthur C. Clarke. Other books from Clarke you might enjoy are the Odyssey series and The City and The Stars. I can also suggest Michael Crichton's work. I've always liked his books, but The Andromeda Strain is probably my favorite.

I'm struggling with echopraxia by peter watts (no capital letters). So far the style is unnecessary flowery/difficult and I don't find the story particularly gripping, but for some reason I've decided to finish it.

I really enjoy writing code and tinkering with it. I was going to apply for an IT program in university, but I was pressured not to. Now I'm taking the long road around.

I've read research on both, but I don't care. My view on the world is that everyone needs a poison. I was an on and off smoker for a few years, haven't smoked since last september. I do enjoy drinking. I picked smoking as worse only because of all those people smoking on crowded streets that...

Occasionally I get inspired to do my hair and nails.

Cracked regularly posts personal interviews with people who have interesting (for a lack of a better word) stories to tell. They have interviewed transgender people, prostitutes, and rape victims among others. I know it's a comedy website and might not be the best source of information on...

That, but I've always thought that that's how people should be. I don't fully identify with my body, so I don't really feel male or female. I do think of myself as slightly more female, but that's just because my body is and it makes life easier. Even then I feel different levels of...

I don't read them. As a part of my last job I had to create a lot of fake reviews praising different business. Also I've been told plenty of stories where competitor companies would leave bad reviews for each other.

The games I play are usually shooters/slashers/some-other-action-genre, so they have a story that just ends. When I do play open world games I finish when I exhaust the interesting missions and get the weapons/armor/magic/etc that I wanted from the beginning. Once that's done, even if there are...

Not right now, but maybe some day. As things are I'm horrified of the idea of giving birth (to the point where I start crying, feel strangled and develop a massive headache :kodama1: ), I'm entertaining different ways I can deal with this. I would like to have the option even if I never decide...

You should apply as soon as possible if you need resident permit, visa and other such documents to reside in the country you want. Also if you apply early the university will be able to provide accommodation (most universities do). Another thing is that some programs accept only a limited amount...

However when you are talking to administration ask them if you have to legalize your diploma and your birth certificate. This basically means that a lawyer will need to put a stamp on them that says they are authentic. I am pretty sure Norway has grade requirements for Bachelor applicants...

I'm assuming you are applying for a Bachelor degree. Are from Guam and do you hold only Guam citizenship? I don't know how much research you've done, but in the EU each country has its own admission rules. But pretty much everywhere you have different rules for applicants from inside the EU and...

Lately some test results have started showing that I might be an ENTP, but I'm definitely an INTP. Among people I tend to act as an ENxx, depending on the people and situation. I've met a few confirmed INTPs, but never really got close to them. They were too introverted to care about...

This all sounds really interesting. Here are my ideas: - I understand that different personalities will have different styles and I like that. My issue with it is that I am an INTP and I love getting up close and personal with my enemies. I only use magic and long range attacks as supporting...

What? Seriously? :D I think it really depends on the industry you work in. I'm in Digital Marketing, so for me it's important. I've been contacted by head hunters through it and got one job (that I declined in the end, but I had other plans).

I can't really speak for the pure existance of your inner motor and force of will, but I can answer the first part of your question. I have absolutely nothing against language and culture growing and adapting elements (be it words, believes or something else) from others. I don't even mind...

English is not my first language. English has nothing in common with my first language. I get really angry when people use English words in a conversation just because. We have a word for that! It's not outdated, it's not weird, just use the word. I understand when people can't remember and...

Would NT immortals care about seeing so many people around them die?

I was washing dishes at a restaurant as well. I truly believe that the real reason they didn't renew my contract was, because I was that antisocial :rolleyes:

Which countries are you interested in? I've studied in the UK, the Netherlands and Bulgaria, so I might be able to help :)

Throughout history both genders have participated equally in raising the children. Only when the factories became the main source of jobs the divide came around. Due to the heavy conditions men were more suitable for working there. Before that everyone had to participate in working the land...

Ah, I killed it:segen:

I can get up within 5 minutes of waking up and have no problem with hearing an alarm even if low on sleep. I only get up for coffee, though. No coffee, no getting up. Either way I won't be fully functional until about 10 am. I don't think it's an INTP thing. The ENTJ, ESFJ and ISTP I've shared...

Thank you for that. It intrigued me, I'll definitely check it out :)

Hey, did you find information about european universities?

The keyboard. But all of the patterns, timing, tropes and stereotypes are useful. Take a look at movies. They have to set up the characters and give you the story and to proceed with the events in a limited amount of time. So they rely on tropes to get the information out of the way as...

I went to read their IMDB page, looks appealing, but what is the drama about? Can you describe it in a few words? I don't mind being spoiled, you can send me a pm if you'd like. I'll definitely give True Detective a try, though.

I like Ancient Aliens. It helps with my sleeping problems :D I haven't watched tv in about a decade. My father is the only person I know who still does that. I watch some american tv shows mostly out of habit. I've been watching them for more than 8 seasons now, so why not stick till the end...

I do that as well. It happens in real life, I do it for movies and books. It's the main reason why I've stopped reading books. I read the summary and everything is so predictable I don't want to invest in it. From what I've read INTPs are good at seeing patterns, even in big data sets. My...

The 3rd Resident Evil movie Lets say it was mildly entertaining, average as far as action goes and full of unresolved plots... actually, I didn't finish it. Sleep won the battle :D

What is your name? I have this general rule: don't give your name online Where are you from? Bulgaria, but does it matter? How old are you? 25 What's your gender? Female How did you find out that you were INTP, or other type? Our 12th grade psychology teacher gave the...

1. English teacher to home schooled kids 2. Dish washer 3. Waitress 4. Graphic Designer (volunteering) 5. Paper rat at the Deposit Insurance Fund (internship) 6. Marketing Assistant (aka secretary and oh! I hear Doctor Who from the other room :D ) 7. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) &...

Yes? I was going to add something, not to make this post completely off-topic, but then realized that I don't have a second favorite genre. :kodama1: Do Spider and Free Cell count?

I like shooters. They need to be very atmospheric and have a nice story. Not necessarily deep, but nice. I detest everything that doesn't have a plot and makes you go from point A to point B, while killing everything in between for no reason. Give me characters and make me care. That's the way...
