For a seemingly irrelevant question, if one's two strongest functions are actually Pe functions does this mean that one is a super perceiver?

Yeah, I figured I might be misusing it a bit, but, at the same time, am I really?
I mean, ExxPs seem to much less judgmental (in the normal, everyday sense of the word) than your typical ExxJ, in my opinion.
I mean, might there not be some kind of correlation between liking closure and being judgmental and liking options and being perceiving?
I believe that would be the case based on my claim, but it would be purely correlatiional, not causational.
I mean, I didn't say the ExxP is more judgmental that IxxP...
Get my drift?

The thing is since we are communicating online, which is an introverted place, the extroverted functions are less represented. So an ExxJ will be seen as someone in introverted perceiving mode most of the time and an IxxP will be seen as someone in introverted judgment mode most of the time. It's just what happens, I don't make the rules. I just enjoy breaking them, but they still remain.
This might explain why Jag is such a crotchety old bastard!
Potentially there might be a slight correlation but at the same time one does not equal the other. There are close-minded Ps and open-minded Js.
Well there are two variables involves, which is why I understood that EPs were considered less judgemental than IPs. It's two variables with J/P being the dominant one (think of genetic alleles ).
Interesting take. I would think that someone who thinks they are open but are actually closed-minded might be deluded. Out of curiosity, how is closed-mindedness a form of openness?Yeah, but open-mindedness might be a J's form of closure (i.e., myself) while close-mindedness might be a P's form of "openness" (echh... the worst -- this is what I hate about some Ps... they think they're open-minded, when, in fact, they're close-minded as shit).

In fact, it's not; it is, as you said, deluded "open-mindedness".
In the perception of the subject, they are open-minded; however, in truth, they are close-minded.
I'm thinking of the close-minded ExFP who thinks she's open-minded because she believes in... hmm, let's say, gay marriage, for example... and she cannot imagine how anybody else could not have a different opinion about gay marriage, and, furthermore, that anyone who does have a different opinion must be close-minded.
In this case, the ExFP might think she's open-minded, but, in reality, an open-minded person would be open to the idea that people could have differing opinions about gay marriage.
Thus, her "open-mindedness" is actually close-mindedness.
I wonder who you're talking about, here.
I'm closed minded regarding a couple of subjects, why?
Because what I believe in, (regarding these several subjects) happens to be categorically right.
It's not even about me, it's about the TRUTH.
Hey Z, your lovely lady is waiting.
