Yeah, I agree on the part about follow-through. I seem to have a problem where I think by analyzing I can arrive at a more efficient path to my objective, which is usually true. I don't stop there though and eventually I realize that I was trying to arrive at my destination through thought...

It is possible in small groups and 1-on-1, but once you have a large and diverse enough audience, you will have people that will have different opinions on what you do. One person will see your strong body language and think of how their father stood like that and how great he was while he was...

The biggest reason why INTPs struggle to socialize is BECAUSE they try to systematize it. I haven't met any successful socializers that have systematized what they do. When I eventually decided to try to understand people on a more fundamental level, I went about it from a systems perspective...

Research is showing that there are two different kinds of visual abilities. One of these abilities is the ability to have clear mental imagery, such as that used by an artist. The other is to think spatially, used by scientists and architects. Here is a website that goes into more detail...

My focus isn't on whether or not these are true for the actual world, but on whether or not this is a good model for defining how intuitives and sensors experience things. Thanks for the links, Vrecknidj.

I would like everyone's opinion on a current line of thought I have been taking towards intuition and sensation. Theory: Intuitives' worlds are defined by abstractions and semantics, where as sensors worlds are defined by the concrete and unique. Therefore, to an intuitive, specific...

What in particular don't you enjoy about modern dancing? Girls allow strangers to basically hump them on a dance floor, and your favorite type is one known to be pretty okay with this behavior. What's to dislike? :twisteddevil: I agree with you on dancing that isn't 1-on-1 or structured...

I would be pretty surprised if he did. You might just be picking up on many comedian's tendencies to see through "societal bullshit" and think that implies a lack of social understanding. I would think that most comedians would require tremendous amounts of social acumen, something that is by...

Yeah, I agree with you. I think that it's possible that there are sub populations with different preferences. If people can go so far as being gay and lesbian (not that there is anything wrong with this, just that it's VERY different from the "standard" mating preference!) I don't see why...

I don't think women have much of a sense for how horny most men are. I don't think men have a very good idea of how horny most women are either. I'd guess that it's probably pretty similar between the genders. A theory: women are probably also more aggressive on hen nights because of the...

I find that I have a somewhat rare openness to new ideas and possibilities while simultaneously having a more critical and skeptical mind. Everything gets examined and no matter the evidence, it never gets turned into a "law". Most people appear to either be very shut off from "reality...

I enjoyed everything except for your section on IQ. (The following may read more aggressive than it was meant) Could you define intelligence rather than expect your readers to do it for you? What is there other than IQ in your opinion? I'm not disagreeing with you in the sense that I don't...

Alright, I registered for this forum for the sole purpose of responding to the OP. Okay, so an IQ is determined by first measuring performance on multiple facets of cognition, then the results are run through equations, and finally a number is spat out that is used as a way to summarize the...
