[Fi] Who would win in a fight an INTP or an INFP?

[Qlip]

I have faith that I could go crazy and beat the shit out of someone if the situation called for it.

Yep, I think the INFP crazy factor would give them the edge, as long as the INTP doesn't have a padded great sword they've been training with in their LARP sessions.

There is no winning when people fight.

What if their Ti and Fi were both manifested as people and then had to fight each other?

depends what's the parameters?

Insults only have power over people who care.

There's a good chance the INTP won't give a shit, and the INFP might get shaken because the INTP is laughing/shrugging off the insults.

Thinkers have feelings too.

i'm even more confident in my power to emotionally destroy an INTP. you're underestimating the strength of Fi and the weakness of cry-baby inferior Fe. not constantly dropping truth bombs is an everyday struggle.

The INFP will win based purely on the shock factor. The INTP won't see it coming.

This needs to be moved to the fluff zone. -_-

That doesn't have much to do with it.

I'll give Fia a bit of credence, though -- as long as the insults are predictable/expected, they can be pretty much dismissed. If you want to get under the skin, you have to find something that strikes to the core that is also unexpected.

That doesn't have much to do with it.

Of course it does: there would be some insults that cut deep for you, Thinker or no.

My point is that we all have weaknesses. The high sensitivity of the INFP could be compensated by their greater ability to perceive emotional frailty, and exploit it.

Discussing this further in vague high-level fluff isn't something I care to do further, so adios.
