Are these women ISTPs?

Well ruling out S's as being thinkers is ridiculous. According to Carl Jung the 4 types that have thinking as their dominant function (both extraverted and intraverted) are ESTJ, ENTJ, ISTP, and INTP.

I agree though that many ISTP's can come off as INTP. I myself have a weak preference of S and can sometimes move into N territory.

You also have to consider that ISTP's are practically bipolar. A lot of the time they can sit about doing nothing, then suddenly run off on an adventure at the drop of a hat. This can make it difficult to type them as it seemingly changes a lot.

As for those women, no idea. I'd need to know them personally to judge properly.

 

Holly Hunter is ENFP
Amy Goodman is INTJ
Maria Bello is an ENFJ


I have two pro-tips for you Enfp_can_be_shy:

The higher one's feeling function is, they higher it will readily go up on the face. I wrote a thread on this back on INTPforum, check it out:

Also, I highly recommend you use videos and not photos if you are into visual typing. You can see so much more information about a person when you are actually seeing them move, speak, and react to their environment, than you can with just a still image.

 

I'm quite convinced that Tesla was an INTP. I just love his rotating magnetic fields. What a genius.

I'm an INTP engineer and my brother is an ISTP physicist and I can tell you that we couldn't be more different except that we both share a knack for mathematics.

 

Tesla was an INTJ.

 

There aren't many.
