[MBTI General] Are you different from the people of your same type?

I noticed that I am quite different from the people of my same type.
I scored as an ENTP, but I am not a typical type 7 as most of my type are.
I am highest in 5 and 8. Furthermore, I am not very inventive. I am more ruthless and calculating. I can see alot of possiblities, but I am not a fun loving crackpot crown like a sterotypical ENTP. I am very interested in leadership and power like ENTJ, but I hate being a J.

How bout you other people.

Yea. I think I tend to be more E and F than most INTP's. I attribute most of my differences to my environment and life experiences. Hence, everyone of the same type is different.

I feel I'm slightly more empathetic to others than the average ENTJ.

Yes, I am.

I might be an ENFP female, but, I, like everyone else, am also an individual, and hence have/exhibit unique qualities/characteristics.

There is a rather small handful of people listed as infj that I identify with at certain times. There are some significant differences with some though especially in terms of certitude which I don't often have. I have less J, more Fi and more Ti (or Te) than some I think because of my experiences. Actually I find myself to be a somewhat nebulous IN?? with a leaning in the F direction, and a little less in the J. There isn't one description that fits entirely. I am probably a little more infj than infp, and can turn into an intj in specific circumstances where subjective/emotional reasoning does not seem like the best idea or particularly relevant. I don't make important decisions based on emotions. I am really tough on myself during difficulty. I do take into account as much info as possible, how the decision will effect everything, and attempt to weigh each thing in a representative manner. I like being able to switch modes to fit the occasion at hand.

I can be a lot SOB-ier than the typical SFP plus I love incredibly dark, bawdy humour.

We can always count on an NFP to share a similar sentiment whenever threads along these lines crop up. :)

I haven't met many INTPs to compare myself to, but I have an inkling that I'm more emotional than the average INTP.

I'm very divergent from the average esfp. Im more inclined to be sulky, and introverted, inactive. My intresets all seem to be leaning on T'ish things.

Probably.

Then again, I'm awful at relating to people, so I might just be thinking that.

No two people are the same regardless of type, IMHO.
On that same note, each and every ESTP is a mess all their own! :D

Well i've only ever met one or two intps and all before i discovered typology so i can't tell.
I would think the answer is yes though for most people here as N types are the majority on here and theres seems to be a connection between individuality and N types.

LOL v funny

I've noticed a real difference in gender with ENTP's, the blokes are relatively different manifestations than females. Don't know why, maybe a society thing.

Of course I do, because my % of all the letters aren't the same as everyone else, and, MBTI does not summarize your entire personality, only 4 aspects of it. Ya dig?

I'm a lot more pragmatic than the textbook INTP portrays of my personality type.

You could say that I'm a sedentary ISTP.

I find that I am significantly more intelligent than most INTPs I have met or observed.

I also find myself far more modest. ;)
