OK is it me or are the "Hate an NF" threads sickeningly nice? The hate an INFP thread completely turned into a snugglefest of why INFPs are so lovable and the same thing happened with ENFPs.
Seriously the only hate an NF thread approaching any respectable level of hatred is the ENFJ one. You INFJs need to get on the the Hate an INFJ thread so we can have some real competition!
Personally, when I started the ENFJ thread (based on the ENFP one) I truly wanted to hear what people had to say. I don't know if I'm opening my big mouth when I shouldn't, but we ENFJs actually PMed each other and decided that we WOULDN'T comment on the thread so that we wouldn't influence poster's comments or try to defend or justify any real or imagined instances of ENFJ fuckery, which I notice makes people more reluctant to voice their true feelings (except good ol' sriv) if they think they'll have a posse of angry NFs on them throwing arsenic-laced cotton candy at them.
But, and I'm probably starting something on this dreary Monday morning, not so with the two other NF threads. Do other NFs feel some need to defend their type? I've been waiting to see any true feedback on the INFP thread and I'm sorely disappointed. Honestly, that venom that people spew about Fe on this forum have little bearing in my real life and don't feel a need to champion Fe or ENFJs or ESFJs. I think this contributes to the stereotype that NFs really can't handle any criticism if you can't have a thread criticizing your type without jumping in and defending the very real less desirable members.
