Smart and curious thinkers who cannot resist an intellectual challenge.

'Indeed, you said some very charming things about gay people ... Point is: I have compared you to the sexual[ly] frustrated creeps here, and I've found you wanting. That's not how words...

No boobs for me, thanks. Hard pass.

Glad we could help you put our completely idiotic mediocrity in the proper perspective. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Ooooh, gurl. Noel Coward is a guilty pleasure. Also: yes, of course, Shakespeare. When I was a kid and wanted to stay home from school because I was sick, my mother--an English...

This is just too delicious.

An actual ENTP would probably not allow another person to set expectations as to how he (or she) should behave, and would likely see any attempt to do so as a cheap manipulation. But, anyway, do...

Yes, this. I have two close friends who are INFPs. (They have taken the tests, so I'm not just going off a hunch, but honestly it would be hard to see them as any other type.) One of these...

A few more: In Cold Blood by Truman Capote (I can't over sell the writing) Slaughterhouse-Five and Cat's Cradle by Kurt Vonnegut (I mean, who doesn't love Vonnegut?) Also, if you like reading...

Completely agree. When I first discovered Kerouac (with OTR in college), I went on a binge and learned the hard way that brilliance can be fleeting.

Hmmm ... this is a hard question hard to gauge for an F-dom. But here are some very Ne-tastic choices Novels A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter Miller (post-apocalyptical and theological) Billy...

Lewis Carroll is the archetype--the patron saint, if you will--of the introverted ENTP.

So, I need to say first off: I am super-obsessed with your profile pic. I need to meet that kitty. Second, I don't agree that female ENTPs are button pushers. ENTP women are irreverent,...

I certainly know INFPs who are highly intelligent and VERY capable of logical thought. F-dominants aren't intellectually ham-stringed by any stretch. That's just not how they form their world view....

I have found that biting sarcasm is a common trait among your people. Also tattoos.

Well, yeah, because we usually come off sounding like a cross between James Bond and Oscar Wilde. The other stuff--e.g., the pathological procrastinating, absent-mindedness, and unconventional...

My experiences have been similar. We and they are not from the same home planet.

Aw ... I remember when I used to wander in to gay bars. Oh, no! I'd exclaim. I've unknowingly strayed off the righteous path and, by a cruel act of fate, been led directly into a house of...

Incorrect. All feelers are hollow, sub-human monstrosities, who spend their empty lives terrorizing NTs with cloying, self-indulgent fits of angst. These facts are unassailable. It's all in the...

Well, hellllllllllooooo there, oddly confident stranger... If I might be so bold as to offer a brief assessment of Your Majesty's debut ... Your instincts were right to come in strong, but...

I'm surprised no one has responded to this thread yet. You realize that your tertiary Fi requires more than cheap wine and Budweiser puppy commercials, don't you? :tongue: Let me see if I can...

Now you're just trolling me, aren't you? C'mon, you can't insist that there's a body of literature supporting your position and just leave it at that. Not to mention that type descriptions are...

:cool:

You are maligning literally half of all Jungian personality types based on your limited and subjective experience with a small group of people who you have determined to be F-dom or F-aux...

I have an IQ in the mid-to-high 140s, and I am a member of Mensa. In my more insecure moments, these facts provide a little comfort. Other than that, though, there's no real advantage to having a...

To say that happiness is the purpose of life is to adopt a very solipsistic world view: i.e., it is to say that only I exist and therefore the reason for my existence must be simply to satisfy my...

To the extent the model is valid, Jungian typology is really only useful for self improvement. When first introduced to MBTI, many ENTPs revel in the fact that they are inherently programmed to be...

1. What is your profile name? aliceinbrc 2. Why would you answer #1 when we could clearly see your name? I've embraced redundancy as a strategy for communicating with other N-doms. It saves...

It's really more the story unseen.

Yes, that's right. The idea is that an ENTP's understanding of external (or objective) reality is informed primarily by intuition--i.e., the perception of things not immediately perceivable by the...

And this, children, is how ENTJ's use Se to manipulate others.

Heh ... that is Ti drawing upon auxiliary Ne to satisfy inferior Fe.

Well at least you exhibit the expected response of an ENTP under pressure: grasping for Te. As you deftly point out, it is difficult to quantify a psychological orientation that is couched in...

And/or you haven't read Carl Jung.

As I approach my dotage years, I often struggle to distinguish funny from the proverbial true-true.

That's what Ne is.

I'd give up the T. What I perceive is too good.

This sounds like a very stressful process. Can't I just have some Scotch and punch the wall in? :wink:

I had friends like that, too ... until the fire ...

I highly enjoyed this story, but I'm not sure that savaging a Canadian is bad ass. I mean ... did you maybe bite off one of his arms or something? :kitteh:

Perhaps ... or perhaps the voices in my head are just a little more interesting than the ones in yours. :cool:

I farted once on the set of Blue Lagoon.

This is so deliciously understated.

I have an ENFP partner of almost six years. It's smooth sailing most days. That is until Ti and Te butt heads. Then shit goes down.

STOP GAY BASHING ME!!!! Heh ... juuuuust kidding. I understand that you are saying you believe a person's sexuality or gender identity is shaped by their formative environment, and that this is...

I appreciate that you are trying to make sense of something that is outside your experience and intrinsic perceptions. However, I would encourage you to move away from theories/explanations that...

Fluid was a poor word choice in so far as it suggests ambiguity or nebulousness. I mean that ENTPs are one of the more consciously expressive types, and thus we are able to construct--and later...

Since you came here to understand your ENTP better, I will first say that what's going on in his mind is that you are depriving yourself of a wonderful experience and he is simply trying to show you...

I'm fascinated by gender. It presents a very interesting definitional problem to work out, and I regularly playing around with gendered mannerisms in the performance of my own persona. (FYI, I am...

I'm good at spin, but bad at lying.'
