he could be operating in his STJ shadow mode. in which case, NFPs under stress can become rigid little bitches

Well, just because you don't agree with him, that doesn't mean he doesn't share your type - it's about behavior, isn't it? That said, I also don't agree with his ideas, and those comments about "men vs. women" and the whole war of the sexes irk me. :dry:

It's just reactionary to third-wave feminism.

I think there's multiple flaws in his system, particularly in the understanding of how ocean waves actually work (I was highly unimpressed), but it's interesting to see the highlights of feminist argument that the dialectic brings out.

You mean Gray, right? What's this about ocean waves? :huh:

Caveat, I may or my not be NF. Anyway, I did go through a phase where I was a bit confused as a teenager. I had mixed up identification with attraction. I think P had more to do with it than anything else. I'm het.

In any case, Grey's not even a legitimate "PhD". I think he got his degrees from some Maharishi university or something. Get him away from INFPs. I think the only reason anyone wanted to type him as one is because of his "gentle" Mr. Rogers Rick Astley like demeanor. But that's lame.

Yeah, he had this theory about how men and women work out problems called "Caves and Waves", only his concept of "waves" was that of a positive feedback, where it would build up force before crashing. Waves actually have a very constant force, the "wave" is just the water being pushed upward as the land gets shallower.

Sorry, random bitchfest :cry:

I have no doubts about my orientation. I find so many people beautiful, internally and externally, but that's not the only reason I take for choosing someone with whom I want to be in a relationship or somthing like that. I admire the beauty of women, but I just prefer men for that kind of stuff...

I once read a book about a girl that suffered multiple personality disorder, and I identified a lot with her - which scared me a lot! But I think it was because of the confusing feelings she had, that remembered some of my own confused feelings, not exactly having the many personalities... I know I act a little differently with each person I know, but I think that happens because each person motivates me to exhibit a different part of myself. But i remember that each part of those makes me who I'm am, as a whole.
