unhealthy intp = cognitive dissonance + inferior Fe activate
healthy intp: ne is used, multiple possibilities taken into consideration, considers facts (tert Si) and experiences, etc

If you are polite, and correct - they get smarter. If you are not polite, or haven't done your research, you get smarter.

If you are polite, and correct - they get smarter. If you are not polite, or haven't done your research, you get smarter.

Results are highly contingent on whether the INTP is polite and correct.

Human interaction is always an adventure, even if less often a pleasure.

Right because they're terrified of anyone thinking they're anything less than aggressive, male and 100% correct, even for a second.

If only nobody indulged that kind of person... I've learned to shut them down as quickly as possible for the sake of our collective sanity, but I can't say the same for everyone else, even people of my type.

The Most Liked Member is always right. The Most Liked Member gets to write history the way they desire. Just like the Kings of old.

hah, or like any madman with a pen and paper... =)

If I'm correcting my female INTP coworker, then I take great pleasure in doing so and we have a battle of the wits. Haha. She usually wins somehow.

If it's my INTP boss, I don't correct him. I usually speak to his ISFP assistant and we correct whatever it is behind his back (usually a spelling or factual error in correspondence). The reason is, if we correct him, he then becomes a little paranoid about everything, spinning out of control. And...we don't want that.
