[SP] Why are estp's so misrepresented

[Bulletproof_Bastard]

Worry not, one can't mention SPECTACULAR without ESTP. If some people happen to dislike us that means they're wasting a chance to have a spectacularity in their life. In that case, it's their problem, not ours.

I know this thread is rather old, but I think I have something important to say.

When anyone reports on a type generally, they are generalizing and reporting their experience with a small subset of the population.

I see people say things about my type all the time. "ENFPs are overly emotional" or "ENFPs are manipulative." I'm certain I'm not either. I don't get worked up about it because someone is probably just ranting about a bad experience they had with one person of that particular type. There are millions upon millions of every type in theory. So there are going to be a considerable amount of bad people of every type.

It's not even a matter if someone's a good or bad person at times. People just rub each other the wrong way. There's nothing you can really do about that usually. You;re just being yourself. The people who truly matter will embrace the person you are
