I don't think I want to attend that meeting, my head might explode out of sheer complexity.

Judging intelligence and a level of being "smarter" is fool hardy. In the world, no matter who it is, you will find everyone is smarter then you in something. Believing otherwise is arrogance.

It just depends I guess what you value on being part of your measurement scale of being "smarter".

Edit: After reading more of this thread...we have gone thermonuclear lol "WTF is this shit" is classic.

Intellect and type are completely unrelated.

To measure intelligance is absurd.

What TYPE of intelligance, to start with??

For example... logically, I run circles around my counterparts. I'm (forgive the superego) a hellava lot more intelligent than most people my age. And there's a few "adults" that I leave in the dust.

But my introversion holds me back. I can write down what I want to say. When I put the pen to the paper, I exactly what my ideas and thoughts are. But a DEBATE? A conversation? Lord no! A person with a lower IQ could probably quick my ass in 2.5 seconds.

If that's the case, he must have copypasted from Malcom Gladwell's "The Tipping Point".

by the way, I'm in total awe of what INTJs can do...but I like messing with them too...so let's just go crazy with this until one of the NT sees us...then it will be on...

Lol! I like it.

I am not sure about intelligance I guess that would depend on how it is measured but it certainly makes Fs more human by comparrison.

I like my inner cavewoman though too!

because Ts tend to adhere to rationality, even if that means becoming unhappy in the process?

Unfortunately this defines me too well.
