It usually bother me when people have clearly mis-typed themselves. It seems like when people take a free online tests, with little understanding of MBTI, there's a good chance they get the wrong type. I suppose worse would be if they happen to be delusional about who they are. I'm not even sure...

Re: Music? Rave Dance Remix Techno Rock (Whatever they're calling "modern" rock) Celtic Easy Listening/Alt (whatever you want to call it) Anime and Game soundtracks Some J-rock isn't too bad Classic Music or remakes I end up picking up a lot of random songs I just like. I can pretty much stand...

I'm certainly not that calm and I don't feel like an "Old soul" as a matter of fact I don't feel like I'll be around long enough to see what happens and know everything I want to. Maybe INFPs would fit the description better. I don't know. I wish I could believe something like that...

If you have trouble deciding maybe take a look at the function and see which is more like you. I guess it's possible to be close the 50-50.

I don't like phones at all... If someone wants to communicate with me on the phone I prefer text. I guess the placement idea is true. Depending on who I'm with I try to figure out what role I play. I suppose extroverts don't think about this, because being around people energizes them...

I say I'm at stage one to be safe. I don't actually know... I'm not sure if I care too much either. Action and reaction makes sense. However, If someone asked me why it's wrong to kill I would be a little conflicted, because... To some killing is okay if it justifies some outcome, like in the...

Your comments make me extremely nervous. It just so happens that recently I've been dealing with a pain in the ass that has been trying to ... assimilate them self with me in order to establish some kind of friendship. But this assimilation has backfired and I've not only found it annoying and...

I wish I had an awesome biology class. The last one I took was in highschool and it was crappy. Then I ended up taking geology for my sciences. I plan to take more biology and a range of science classes that interest me in the future though. I think the best arrangement for my major would be to...

My male sociology teacher was a feminist theorist. murkrow- Actually, like I said, I thought the ideas you expressed were romantic and socially sound. I still think they are, even if that's to say the structure is in order to produce children.

I'm not shy. Depending on the situation I may talk. For some reason it seems like I always end up around someone who just thinks I look like a perfect listener and talk at me. I tend to get along well with males. Females kind of scared me (especially when they were in those groups), unless the...

I do not think it is harsh, but I am a harsh person (most of the time anyway). I dislike it when people simply play ignorance as if that frees them of any responsibility. While I understood the intent of such a statement and the fact that is was contradictory, I do not think such a statement...

Sometimes I feel depressed, because I want to. It is easy for happiness to be fleeting, to be artificial, to be taken away. Normally I will more likely be stressed or concerned about something... I am not sure about the writer of this article, but the basics of it are true enough. People...

I find it interesting that some of us have questioned the meaning of Good/Happy and others have actually answered the question or admitted to some reality of Goodness and Happiness. Even though it's a bit off topic, it seems essential to know... Do you Believe in Good as a reality? I...

Re: Would You Rather Be Happy Or Good? Radium is an unstable element isn't it? It would be unlikely to make a drug out of that. And even if the druggist bought the Radium for $200 developing such a drug would be expensive. Still the likeliness of one drug "curing" a type of cancer is pretty...

Re: Would You Rather Be Happy Or Good? I've heard this example before... Why doesn't Hans seek some kind of support? Why is there only this one drug? What is it made out of? Who made it? Aren't there alternatives? Does he try to discuss this with the merchant? Is there a way to make a deal...

Since happiness and goodness are rather subjective I would rather have to say neither. Ultimately I would like to have truth, no matter the disappointment that might follow. Then again, let's say I was to obtain some truth, wouldn't that qualify as my happiness? Isn't seeking and understanding...

My teacher for Sociology of Gender was male and the primary caregiver to his daughter. He said he'd done his part as a "man" in society and spent his years "dying" in the work force. He talked about spending time with his daughter like it was the first time he'd really felt alive. But it's not...

My dreams aren't normally nightmares. Sometimes they actually play through with perfect sense, but they can be so vivid and intense that when I wake I don't really feel like I've slept. I use to have consistent patterns of dreams, but now they're more random. I tend to dream of ships, large...

As silly as this may seem I've been thinking about this comment for quite a while. I actually found it incredibly heartless and ignorant... You SHOULD think about it. Some people live up to the expectations of gender and play out their roles as a way of survival, but they simply play out a...

I have read... that they are ideal for each other.... because one's extroverted thinking and the other is introverted thinking. I believe thinking is both of their primary function...

Live action role playing and air guitar I would have to say.... I would find the worst... I read on Urban Dictionary that Furries is just the name given to people who like Furries... And furries are just those humanoid animals and I guess character animals themselves? Did I see something...

If I said I really wanted to go skydiving or something she would probably arrange it... I would really have to want to go though. Usually the request has to have some rational aspect. If I asked her to do a chore she'd probably hurt me. If I asked her to make me something and she was already...

I'm apparently pretty nerdy from what I can gather... I've even written and read fan fictions (and some comics). I've collab written, have two blogs, forum and chat roleplay...MMOs, games... I'm also an anime/manga fan. But I suppose my worst is Futanari (You can look it up on dictionary.com...

Furries? You mean the humanoid animals right? I've seen a lot of people interested in those... I don't care for them myself... at all, but I'm an anime, manga and gamer fan, so I've seen them and like their musk (catboy/catgirl) counterparts. I'm not sure what the whole hobby includes as in...

It pretty much looks like everyone has clarified S/N. My mother is an Sensing type and I've found that she doesn't have any patience for theory... She's an ESTP, so we're similar in some aspects. If something is purely logical or has been applied continuously she understands it... She once...

Usually when someone makes an absurd and extreme statement we would instantly ask for proof... This thread isn't suppose to be about God or gods. Just because the majority of us are INTPs doesn't mean we can't have a bit of organization...

I don't think I would try any of the traditional methods, so I don't know what the chance of my actual dying would be. I think if I were to attempt it, I would go a few days without eating and maybe some time without drinking (note it would have to be winter) then I would wander into the...

This we can see, this we can observe, this we know... And we'll do nothing about it. Ignorance.

I wish I didn't have hesitation about dying... The fact I do probably means I won't end my life. All the same, I've numbered my days, maybe just for the hell of it. Normally people who are going to commit suicide have a history with depression, illness perhaps or something major has changed in...

I thought about suicide quite often, but I've never tried to do anything. I thought thinking of suicide when I was young was normal. I almost know exactly how I would go about it. For me the most depressing thing is to realize how rotten and backwards the world is, how slow it is to change and...

Me? Obsessive much? Hedgehogbe, I almost convinced I have no idea what you are talking about. The focus I meant to be on the FUNCTIONS, not the Attitudes. How you input information, how you observe the world. Hence Intuition and Thinking- for instance. What you're talking about with Introvert...

After seeing a lot of stereotypes and conditioning aimed at children I wonder how useful something like the MBTI would be in use towards children. Would people learn to see their children as individuals and not try to make them into perfect men or women or perfect/improved/better versions of...

If we could truly progress in science we would be much better off. There are two types or phases of science; one that observes and one that constructs and experiments. Tsunami walls and education are a result of observation and then trying to construct something that would help cope with...

I dreamed I was eating a small Trilobite, then I decided that was disgusting and spat it out in three bites. I'm not sure that has any meaning. Sometimes I dream of huge ships and weird places, but I think it's mostly experiences, desires and fears. I'm not really afraid of Trilobites though. I...

Well, my introvert attitude has the highest percentage, anywhere between 70-100%. Despite the fact that I wasn't ever classified as argumentative or brilliant as a kid I've always been very "independent" as people said. Especially when I'm ill or irritated (Currently I seem to have a cold) I...

Usually I think of a leader as a group leader and someone who specifically works with organizing people. That is very ENTJ. My ENTJ friend DOES that. He's hilarious. I don't want to work directly with people, it's annoying.

That's very structural fundamentalist.

I'm surprised I didn't spot this until now. Well, personally I hate gender role and I think they are sick and twisted boxes we're constantly forcing people in too. For structural fundamentalists gender roles... well they create a reliable structure. Personally I go with the Sandra Bem Lens...

I like knowing I'm pretty much an INTP. I don't know if I like being an INTP necessarily. If it's what I am, then it's what I am. Self-improvement wise, it gives me a basis to start with and to understand myself. MBTI gives me a way to deal with other people more effectively and affectively.

I wonder what the ideal leader personality, in combination with INTP, would be? I would rather be something like "controller" rather than "leader". I would think ENTPs would make excellent leaders.

What forum (section) are they talking about this on? I don't want to be a leader, nor does anyone usually think I would be worthy as a leader. I certainly couldn't stand being a leader, if anything I would rather be in the background of such a title and influence the "leader". Leaders have to...

I have a lot of trouble with death, as far as being emotionally normal. I had my great grandmother die on Christmas Eve and one of my grandmothers died. In a really bizarre instance in my ... youth (I guess it wasn't childhood) I was told to watch over a boy in a coma. They said talking to him...

Depending on the situation my reaction, emotionally, might be instantaneous. If I am personally targeted and harassed my emotions are fairly quick to react, though the last time I was attacked like this I used my Thinking to point out the immaturity and stupidity of the person harassing me...

..........Good Eyes... Not so much... I'm slowly becoming near-sighted, but I guess, for now, I could say I have good eyes. As far as INTPs changing, supposedly the functions NT are always the same your whole life. Thinking, intuition, sensing, feeling. I recall people talking about the...

-loner (I can be alone and be alright. It's a little awkward to eat alone in public is the only thing) -more interested in intellectual pursuits than relationships or family -wrestles with the meaninglessness of existence -likes esoteric things -disorganized -messy -likes science fiction...

This is too far beyond me. I'm still having trouble accepting DID as something real... -_-; I guess if I were about to lose one of my friends I had online for years... I would probably be shocked, probably would detach from it directly after, but eventually the realization would come back to me...

Catcher in the Rye anyone?

I have so many plots in my head I can't normally settle on one. However, there is one that emotionally strikes me above the rest. I really really can't plan stuff out though. Every time I've planned stuff out I've lost interest... I have to think about it, write out a few versions (like the...

It's... complicated. Don't get me started seriously...
