Uh I dunno, maybe because they whine and take things too personally...

Seriously are there any serious examples of ENTJs getting a bad wrap any more than the rest of us? Link/citation etc...? If anyone gets an unfair wrap here its the SJs...but what the hell whats wrong with a little criticism...if it doesn't kill us it helps us improve.

What we need is a good "Tell us what you hate about ENTJs" thread. Both the ENTJs and the NFs will go up in arms seek out equality and start harping about typology prejudice. Therefore redemption via backlash.

Whats wrong with this place is that its too prejudice of prejudice of different MBTI types. Shucks cant make an omelet without breaking a few eggs.

Man up and walk it off. ;)

I encountered someone on a different forum who insisted that an asshole in their life was an ENTJ, even though the asshole in question self-identifies as INFJ.

Coz everyone knows that INFJs can't be assholes. :wubbie: :heart: :hug: :blush: :smile:

In MBTI circles, the ENTJ type just seems to be the garbage bin for everyone's issues. Seems is the key word here-- the ISTJs unfortunately get that illustrious honor. Lucky them.

That's funny, because a number of the INFPs seem to think they're the ones who are most often mistreated or unfairly slandered.

In fact, every time any type gets slandered, people from that type show up and complain about how unfair it is that their type gets slandered so much more often than all the others.

Selective perception, anybody?

I was actually gonna say that that infp could give entj a run for their money when it comes to perceived bad reps; followed closely by istjs.

this what you call "criticism", this dom Te, in its best form is helpful when done in a calm tone and tactfully

in its worst form it manifests itself as aggression

aggression good for hunting, dominating, leading, procreating, fighting, being alert, fitness...

Know your weakness

You're just jealous the ENTPs aren't in the running for the big bad wolf sweepstakes. Despite your best efforts, no one takes you seriously!

:smooch:

On the other hand, it's frickin' awesome getting a bad rap as an INTP. Every single time it happens, I get $5.00.
