Maybe what's screwing with proper type hypothesising here is E vs I. All this social stuff you speak of, Serge, really doesn't sound INTJ. But it could easily be E-something. E-anything, really. And the fact you're sure of I would then be glossed by reference to the standard type development model, which says in the beginning we're all dominant but this changes in the teens when we all swing heavily into auxiliary mode. It's like a growth spurt and the auxiliary gets over-emphasised in consciousness (presumably just because if it weren't OVER-emphasized, it wouldn't have the conscious presence to grow in and eventually fit a proper role alongside the dominant). Maybe Little Sticks picked it right.
So, based on the assumption that I'm an extrovert who is going through a introverted phase because I'm building my auxiliary function, my 'new' suspected type is now ENTJ?
Serge is an INFJ. Very developed Ti and unsure of his Fe. Its in his fucking voice. Natural warm Fe voice.
YouTube - Michael Ignatieff's Early Liberal Memories - This guy is an INFJ with excellent Ti usage. Youd mistake him for an INTJ.
YouTube - Stephen Harper Income Trust Promise - This guy is INTJ. Excellent articulation.
Conclusion: Serge is an INFJ unsure of his Fe and with heavy Ti development.
Natural warm "Fe" voice? I'm not sure if that's something to go off of and besides, my speech pattern and sound is something I have worked on as well. I used to mumble and speak quite quietly, also my voice used to be characteristically monotone as well. Interesting video. Why would I have so much developed Ti before I developed Fe?
Seconded. Rather than focus on what qualifies as an "INTJ" or "INFJ" hobby, determine the process and reasoning in which you use to achieve your objective.
Eric B's description on the functions might be of use to you:
OrangeAppled's Fi-Fe distinction is great as well:
Based on Eric B I feel familiar with Se, Ni, Te, Ti. When I was younger, though, I think I used more Ne (I used to be extremely random, I was the kid who would randomly start talking about what I watched on the discovery channel last night to the teacher) and Fe (I remember specifically an incident where I was getting ignored by my cousin and I felt like he hated me. I started crying. Another incident is where I forced myself to cry to get out of trouble with the principal and as soon as the 'trouble' passed, I immediately regained my composure. Another example of this is when my best friend tried to make me ditch my other friend just for the simple fact that I didn't like him. I stopped talking to him instead, you can't make a person do something like that, a good friend wouldn't do that)
So..hmm.
OrangeApple's comment: I don't really like admitting this but I do think that I seek a group consensus on a few issues. For example, if I'm interested in something, the first thing I do is read tons of articles on the same thing and I'll read the comments to see how other people are viewing the same information I'm reading. Sadly, I tend to think that if more people are agreeing, then I give the opinion more weight than if I had not read the comments. I also have a tendency to ask people in real life if it's weird to do a particular action or something like that, I like having the information. If this issue is personal to me though, no matter how many people oppose me, I will hold my view.
