'Ehm... to be honest, the first thing I've noticed about my future ENTP husband was his ability to make fun of literally anything. He was so funny and playful! I met him 14 years ago so the details...
Hey Ariz :D! Welcome to the site :] I have been with my INFP for almost four years now and I would gladly talk about what I like about our relationship and the things we may consider working...
Out of curiosity - what is the English word for a male version of cougar?
Endologic I am not sure if I understand your question, could you explain me what you mean?
I don't agree. It lacks Eysenck's Psychoticism. Uhm.. the idea behind Keirsey's temperament theory is people sharing certain traits, what you propose is the opposite, and in this sense me...
What's your theory? Please do elaborate :] When I was an intern in a mental hospital [personality disorders department] I found it really hard to type people, sometimes I couldn't even tell if...
I used to have doubts about me being extroverted. When I am among people I usually talk a lot. A lot :D! But I did some research and observation and turned out that I confused introversion with...
HeadofHudet Thanks for this! I've never thought about it from this perspective, but I have a question - what is in your opinion the reality the chess represent? The goal of the game is to...
How does the procedure of genetic testing look like? Do they draw your blood or sth? Why did you get tested in a first place?
Unfortunately I cannot agree, at least when it comes down to being an atheist in Poland :] But I do agree that it probably has little to do with the type.
OK my few thoughts, on the Fi, and you considering yourself to be INTP(ish) while you were depressed. I can relate. I have a system of deeply rooted values and I act on them when it's...
I second this. I listen to System of a Down when I have to clean my flat :] I love SOAD, it always lifts my mood, so I am trying classical Pavlovian conditioning to make me like tidying up. ...
... and what does she thinks on this subject? Did you have Are We a Thing relationship talk yet :>? How long have you known her before you became intimate?
No, never. I cried like baby when President Roslin died in the last episode of Battlestar Galactica though. Shite... I have to stop thinking about it... ... and now I am sad.
Yeah, I've seen that one! Black Mirror is awesome.
INTP Mammas... Guys, you are my heroes! I don't want to have children on my own, I never did. It's not that I don't like them, I work with kids and I do enjoy that experience. But I only do...
Go on.. I am intrigued :D
O good gods -.- I think you missed the whole idea of what functions are. Who said that NTs can't get pissed, sad, happy, feel scared or lonely? Preference for thinking and feeling has to do...
Psychology is a social science. The results are approximations. On my first day of uni, our social psychology teacher told us that the more we will know, the more frequently we will respond to...
Barnum effect I don't believe in horoscopes. I am a Sagittarius, ascending Scorpio, MC Virgo, Luna in Gemini. My Mars, Venus and Luna form a pretty triangle, and when you add Uranus in...
Excuse me for posting below my own post. I hate when people do that :D This is almost exactly what Jung wrote on Ni doms, being the lone voices crying in the wilderness, prophets who are not...
nynaeva ... and I was using the word temperament the way I was taught when I was studying psychology [temperament - unique kind of a nervous system]. Keirsey's definition imo is to broad and...
I am definitely not a hugging type. I don't plan to change it, and I see no reason why should I. My Mom told me that this freaked out her and the rest of our family, because since I was a baby I...
Thanks a lot for this suggestion! I will try to sell it to one of my little patients I am seeing tomorrow :D
And did you :D?
SkyRacerX Geee, I am so sorry to hear about your situation! I deal with this kind of people like this woman on a daily basis unfortunately [I am child therapist and I try to help their poor...
I wonder if there was actually any research done on the subject, or the editors from 16 personalities came up with this theory because the attraction of opposites seems so... romantic I guess? ...
When it comes to working with somebody I work best coupled with INTJs. When it comes to getting along I get along well with intuitives in general.
Even if this is true [protecting the feeble-minded, lol :D], I still see no reason why somebody is censoring nipples. Is there something wrong with men having an erection :>?
flotore [INTP pep-talk begins:] When I decided to go to technical university I was.. thirty :] I had a degree in philosophy, psychology, but I lost contact with math as a subject at school when...
Out of curiosity (but on the subject): what do you guys think about breastfeeding in public? The same nipples, different context.
Uhhh... this is gonna be a tough one, because my english vocabulary is lacking when it comes to intricacies of anatomy and temperament, and I read lost of positions about this subject in polish - but...
Intentionally vague :D? It's gonna take me some time to write you a response, don't expect it before monday. I have exams this weekend, and since english is not my first language writing something...
So true, so true...prefers to spend time alone...values theory... so true... wait... maybe... no way... structure? organized? Me? ME? This test is bullshit!
My ENTP Dad :D! Stawker Both Nietzsche and Wittgenstein made it to my short list of philosophers I admire. To be honest with you, I am torn between deciding whom do I love the most and who had...
I feel you! Gettig accustomed to = not meaning equals took me some sweet time. Also, I've noticed that each time I am reading a book and I stumble upon ; my sight starts to go backwards, from the...
Raconteur I've started writing websites kind of spontaneusly, when I was a teenager, back in 1998. I wanted to have a gallery on the web so people could see my Sailor Moon inspired manga :] I...
Bitterself Can you think about any resons why you would like to be an INTP? I mean why this particular is appealing to you? I am with Dasein - the type description he linked you is imo really...
Well said! Right now, in my country the government is planning to ban abortion, even if the featus was concieved due to rape. On the other hand, our delegates are fighting at the European...
An actual scientific article! With bibliography and everything! I'm so glad that I decided to join Personality Cafe, lots of smart folk here :D Thank you! Totally makes sense, especially if...
Kaboomz Unfortunately, I can also came up with similar stories.. what do they have in common is the girl wanted to get pregnant, therefore... which made me think about yet another explanation...
OMG, it's my sentiment exactly!
Kaboomz I cannot say for other NTs but to me, the older I get, the idea of having children is becoming less and less logical [they need constant care when little, need regular feeding, cost a lot...
It should be called Anti-Choice and not Pro-Life. I am very much pro-life [salus aegroti suprema lex] but at the same time I am pro choice. It's a woman's right to choose for herself - her mental...
My theory - it has something to do with genetics, since we are born with certain and unique nervous systems, which make us the way we are. Intuitive people may have less children, the genes are not...
Oh, you are so, so mean! I like that :D But seriously now. I wondered some time ago what the famous loops are since lots of people write about them and I found for example this article: ...
As far as I know, Grant / Beebe's model of cognitive functions stack is not supported by any scientific, large scale research [I've checked on Ebsco database]*. In his Personality types Jung...
Procrastinating. Again. I should probably study :<
lilibug1 I'll start with kissing on the cheek/the forehead. My best female friend and I do that every time we meet. We also play with eachother's hair, mostly because we do eachother's roots. So...
Nuala One of the reasons I am delaying my motherhood is a fantasy of my children starving to death because I hate cooking so much. All cooking related appliances in my kitchen belong to my sister,...'
