Am I an outlier?

Yup, this is what I am talking about. The NTP "I get to be a jerk, because I'm somehow special (when actually it's that I am really unpopular IRL, but we band together online)" attitude.

yeah definitely SJ. ;)

You seem ESFJ to me. I think many people are uncomfortable with the idea of someone knowing a lot about politics when they're not N or T. But it's natural for sensors to be insightful in the one or two areas they specialize. Whereas Ns are more likely to have insights into lots of areas but only in a holistic, generic way. Given that, and the fact that you only tend to post in a couple different types of threads, you're an obvious sensor to me.


It's funny that I only post in a few threads on here, because I am one of those people IRL who will talk about anything and everything with everyone. I guess I flex the expertise online more.

Actually, I find that that is more of a P/J thing. Ps tend to have more breadth, Js more depth.

My sister is an ESFJ, she couldn't care less about typology though. :p

Same here, infact it's pretty damn hard to get most of my S friends interested in it lol.

@pure_mercury, I honestly couldn't say what type you are, I'm not too great at it, but you are awesome. :)

I had to trick my sister into taking a test. And then had to guide her through the questions since she's dyslexic and questions were in pretty sophisticated English, not our native language (Dutch).

Same as my sister too, infact I find with my friends and family I have had to explain each question in terms they could understand because they didn't understand them.

It would be easier for some if the tests used more laymans terms.

I agree!

"Strict observance of the established rules is likely to prevent a good outcome. Yes/No"
to
"When making pancakes (Or any type of dish) for the first time, it is best to follow the recipe as exact as possible in all regards, in order to get the bestest tasting pancake ever! Yes/No"

Etc. :D

I don't feel as if I fit into any of the types easily. I am super-duper E and definitely J, but after that, I don't know. I have gotten every ExxJ type there is in my testing, with ESFJ and ENFJ most common. Still, there are people who swear up and down that I am an N and/or a T. My personality traits seem contradictory if you go by how types are described. I'd like to hear some more perspectives.
It does not matter.
In the country club they are not in the know.

You should come over to the ENFJ side Blue. We're way cooler! :cool:
