ehhh...the one thing i care more then anything about is how people feel. the "doesn't care at all" is quite a jump. Fi doesn't mean that you don't care at all...more its how taht feeling is handled. if an Fe hurts someones feelings and realizes it, they well handle it in a much different way then an Fi dominant. BOTH however will feel bad and will care. they just handle it in different ways. i might be different from other XNFP's buttttttt I would doubt that highly. the problem with family guy is all the characters do things that are not neccessarily normal for certain types to do (or anyone for that matter)
i was talking about the abstract concept of Fi, not the interaction of functions in NFPs. in any real world situation (not family guy reality, lol), all four functions are being used and are passing information back and forth -- the empathy that FPs feel lies in Ne/Fi interaction. i find that unhealthy FPs are less empathetic than unhealthy FJs because it's slightly less direct. (many unhealthy FJs i know compromise their internal standard for the sake of social harmony -- myself included.)
an Fi person will feel empathetic if their projected internal morals are violated. but it's their OWN value system. Fes pick up value judgments from their current surroundings (not necessarily other people, but it has to be tangible evidence), and will feel empathy if
those values are violated. so an Fi user without an outwardly applicable value set won't be empathetic. (the flipside for Fe users is that if their values aren't properly assessed internally, they'll be super hypocritical.)

i was thinking about peter in the last few hours, though, and (without being able to list any concrete reasoning) i'm starting to see ENTP more...
hmmm. i'll watch more episodes and post later.
I agree with you there.
I was just under the impression that ENFJs and ESFJs would make a much bigger deal about being unpopular than an INFJ or ISFJ would..
that's probably true for older IFJs, but younger ones seem more likely to seek social approval, as they don't necessarily have the ability to internally validate themselves.
younger EFJs would be worse, though...you're right.
