I agree Von, and I think the founders of the MBTI wouldn't want it to be seen as super solid, it is a foundation of framework to help us communicate. " In other words, I think I just had an Ni moment where all the models lined up. " This solidity seems a bit contradictory to your post...

Well I agree we shouldn't hate a MBTI type, but given the forum it is an ok question to explore as long as we realize that MBTI types are not absolutes and while we may hate an xxxx we don't hate all xxxxs. That said, I think we can make some generalizations. I hate murderers, why shouldn't...

Any type that is arrogant and bossy, but I just love pointing it out to them, so I am probably just as bad.

Cool counter metaphor, but fence sitters will by nature will adjust with and take advantage of this change I would think he may argue. However, being a fence sitter myself I am not sure any one extreme is good. Sometimes you gotta sit on the fence and sometimes you gotta make a choice (or...

One thing I want to mention. Be careful about seeing the types and their direction as too solid. Not that you are doing this in your head, but I think we should use this more of a guide than an absolute. The shutting down function theory is interesting, but I would tread carefully. "I'm...

Thanks for all the positive responses, and sorry to Sithious and Zero Angel for offending your delicate sensibilities. Quite a strong emotional response for a monkey rhyme, what happened? (I knew I should have said Wreath Monkey)

Agreed, trust it but show great caution if you think it may have bias.

Personally I have found in my experience that every single NF is different from each other. ENFP is different than ENFJ is different than INFP is different than INFJ. That said I have had a special connection with each one, finding I think alike and differently from all of them. The...

Yeah, you can, I think to view it otherwise would be ridiculous. 6 Billion people and NO ONE can switch between the two? Like 6,000,000,000 have to fit into 16 types? What do you think?

There are some major differences and some major similarities. I have experience myself and I am an ENFP. I find that ENFJs are more decisive in general and a bit less open minded to certain things. Sometimes when they have made their mind up you just can not sway them, even if they happen to...

You can call yourself ENFX if you want, means you are between things. Remember the function order too. ENFJ primary feelers ENFP primary intuition

I think obviously it should be ok. I mean they do it to animals that can't even choose their fate, but they don't let humans? It is pure selfishness and self survival instinct that prevents assisted suicide. People don't want to see their loved ones go, and while we can all understand that...

I don't know why this is but I just can't stop :m196: posting these damn monkeys!!! Nose monkeys :mill: Tongue monkeys :mp: Teeth monkeys :m196: I can't stop Clothed monkeys:m123: Fun monkeys :m058: Thief monkeys:mxmas: (what, you preferred wreath?) Flower monkeys:m045: Power...

I encourage everyone to vent, but remember if you are venting about someone, try and find the positive in it. Maybe it made them feel better, maybe their complaints were dead on, etc. The idea is to prevent harmful judgments of others and to work on positive solutions or traits.

First of all, NOBODY is an exaggeration. Let's say like 25% care about who people actually are and the other 75% latch on to shallow things like social power or money, or image etc. The key is to be able to quickly and accurately identify people that won't do this. Be reasonable and nice and...
