In some situations, yes. In some situations, no.
Unlike most who tried to blend in, I ended up going more the route of becomming an 'in person' social hermit, I avoided pretty much everything dealing with people in person. I rarely ever talk face to face, and rarely go to any sort of social function, and never if I don't have to. Refuse to wear anything uncomfortable or impractical, everything has to be with good reason.
As almost all of my social skills are actually related to being online, rather than in person, this actually DOES make a significant difference, as people are generally more accepting of ones' "true" self, and it's FAR easier to find like minds online with hundreds or thousands of people yeu bump into in various sites, games, etc. If yeu try to maintain this in a standard school environment, meh yeu're screwed, maybe yeu'll find ONE ENTP female in every 2-3 classes of 40ish people due to overlap of students, and even then it can be hard to notice them due to most attempt to just blend in so they don't have to deal with the pressure.
This indirectly led to problems of "zomg why can't yeu make 'real' friends instead of pretend internet friends?" alot but really... "real" friends? Where am I going to get THOSE around here? The location here is tiny as hell, there's an excellent chance I was the ONLY ENTP female in my grade due to very low population density, though I'm sure there were a few other NT's they were not of the kinds that I cared to associate with.
In short, I had no reason to really develop that way as a mask going through school.
Since leaving it though, I've tried to work on improoving my social skills slowly. Basically I can easily slip into a group and understand how the group's mechanics work and use it to my advantage and such, but this's more of an instinctual level, far more so than an intentional trait. The Fe is NATURALLY there, and moderately strong, but it's not been nurtured to the point of being controllable as such.
I'm sort of trying to change it but it's quite difficult when one truly doesn't really understand it fully. It's like how do I get better at something I have difficulties with even the definition on? XD Makes it very hard to do when looking at it from a reasoned, logical perspective, more or less on my own without too much outside help on the matter. It's confusing and bizzare, it's obvious it works to some degree innately, but HOW it works is pretty much beyond me at this point.
And yet it is in fact used constantly, to varying degrees, but rarely as an intentional desire to do so, it just happens automatically.
For all that being said, I *DO* attempt to... alright well no I don't really attempt to be feminine. But it does bother me greatly when people don't understand that, like I try to avoid making 'really' obvious errors... but for most of the normal average stuff, I seriously just don't care. Why should I have to cater to someone else's flawed perspective? If they're whining about me wearing pants instead of a dress, they're going to whine about EVERYTHING no matter how trivial, it's pointless to even try to cater to their whims because I'd completely loose everything that defines me in the process. And considering I absolutely DON'T want to end up anything at all like them, I'm not going to try to please them due to that risk of loosing myself in the process, just so I can try to make someone I don't even like happy. All risk, no reward? Uhm... no.
But let's say on bigger issues, I will still speak my mind, but I'll be... a little more cautious in my wording to describe my points of view these days, trying to minimize how bluntly I state certain unorthodox opinions I may hold. Some of my beliefs are very practical in nature, but are almost purely logical in a point of view and detached emotionally to the point that if someone saw a girl state "I think we should just cut the meat off dead people and feed animals with them rather than poisoning it with preservatives and burying it in the ground since it's a waste of perfectly good meat", people would just stare at me in total shock and be like WTF are yeu totally insane?
Sooooo yeah, some things do need to be careful on to use a lil Fe, but it's something that I've been alot slower in developing than most. By default it's naturally strong, but it's only a talent for the most part at this point, a natural affinity with no real training and skill in how to properly make use of it.
