    MBTI really butchered Jung's actual ideas.

    I've been slogging through Jung's works lately, as well as reading through some essays on the Personality Nation Forums, and it seems that Jung implies that one cannot be an empiricist and still be an N, and Jung himself said that he is a "Introverted Thinking with Sensation" type, an ISTP. Oh...

    [PAX] INFJ Ethics

    The "no static sense of ethics" thing is more a problem of unhealthy Fe Dominant types (ExFJ). In INFJs Fe form a team with Ti that is subordinate to Ni. Fe adapts Ni ideas so that they work in the social context.

    Are INFJs really that rare?

    IMO intelligent Sensors tend to mistype as intuitives because of popular prejudices about S vs N that filter into popular internet tests. And because of the bigoted "S = Stupid and Shallow" notion

    The role of Ti in INFJs

    Every time somebody says poor people are poor because they are lazy I get REALLY angry and want to tell them to walk a mile in those people's shoes.

    The role of Ti in INFJs

    This is a fascinating thread! Well, this explains why it seems like INTJs and Libertarianism go together, LMAO!

    How many INFJs assumed they were Ts before they understood typology?

    This is why I supect Thomas Jefferson was an INFJ. Jefferson had a socially-oriented moral system (Fe) that was intimately intertwined with his political beliefs and ideals, and then used "logical data and principles from various sources" to back them up.

    How many INFJs assumed they were Ts before they understood typology?

    If you think Dom Si = "close-minded and ignorant" then you do not understand Jungian psychological types. Sensor-bashing is the bane of all MBTI message boards.

    How many INFJs assumed they were Ts before they understood typology?

    This is why I say that we are conscious of our Tertiary function, but hold it apart from our Ego. Thus we easily recognize it as a distinct process of cognition in our minds easily, while the Dominant and Auxiliary functions are to some extent taken for granted

    How many INFJs assumed they were Ts before they understood typology?

    One misconception that causes misunderstandings is calling cognitive functions "stronger" or "weaker" relative to other cognitive functions. A better way to understand the cognitive function heirarchy is in terms of identification with and intergration into the Ego structure. For an INFJ this...

    How many INFJs assumed they were Ts before they understood typology?

    I thought I was an INTP or INTJ for a long time because most online MBTI tests do a piss-poor job at determining F-T and P-J, using questions more suited for the Big Five's "Agreeableness" and "Conscientiousness" axes then to Jungian cognitive functions.
