I'm heterosexual so I don't know where this comes from.
More likely doesn't mean you all are, it just means more than one would expect in the general population. Say 20% vs 10%, or whatever.

I "ninjaed" that one. Twice actually. Because it sounded like I accused you for stating something when you in fact asked a question. My bad.

The only bad thing about being an INFP male is that you can't "pick up" women, it's more in the lines of being "picked up" by women. The good thing about it though is that you get all the perverted aggressive women, in all kinds of ages =)
OMG did we date?
this is one of the things I both like and dislike about infps.

Lucky for you, perverted aggressive women are not in short supply. ;)

Are INF men more likely to be gay?
Has anyone studied sexual orientation + type?

From what I have personally observed there seems to be a marginally larger percentage of homosexual males in the INFJ male population than in other types. However, this is just a personal observation and I do not have any quantifiable data to substantiate that observation.

I am an asexual though and on a poll that was done, the majority of asexuals seemed to be INXXs. That being said, given that it was an internet poll the results may have been skewed

Aw, I said "all" the perverted aggressive women :doh: I deserve to have my cool points revoked immediately.
:sadbanana:

Don't worry kiddo, you're INFP, so you didn't have that many to lose.;)

No, but they seem like it...

To other men perhaps, but the women usually can tell the difference. I've been refered to as the "only straight guy" in my gym class by 2 different women (who are just acquaintances) in the past couple of weeks.

I do have any in my life currently (to my knowledge) but the INFx fellas I have gotten to know on the board I find delightful.
I like their approachability, warm, considerate natures, unpretentiousness, emotional depth, sense of humor, and idealism.
Its fair to say I'm smitten. :blush:

And how. I cannot respect someone who makes googly eyes and doesn't follow up.

This is a tough question, since everything I love about each one is pretty much exactly everything I hate about the other.

INFP and INFJ are so so so so so different. Sticking them together in a thread like this confuses me. =/

Can you explain this a bit more? I've always found this tendency in some ENTPs to be really interesting, and haven't fully figured out what's going on yet.

if you only fixate on those differences. INFJs & INFPs aren't worlds away.

I agree with this.. They are so similar in many ways I can't always tell them apart. It's like regional dialects of the same language.

If you will.

Or you could say it's like Canadian french VS Parisian french..

It's just an analogy.

I mean really, how different is an INFP with a 52% P preference, going to be to an INFJ with a 52% J preference?

The difference would be akin to an accent and few different slang's.
