Not just NT, but, T, in general. I started a thread a while back regarding prejudice against sensors, and one of my points was the way the T/F dichotomies are expressed, the terminologies used, propagates the prejudice.
Just like mental retardation has now become obscure to be replaced by, 'individuals with intellectual disabilities'.
A T on his flaws due to weakness of F: Yeah, I know I am cold and hard and too logical, and am probably emotionally retarded.
(said so many times on these forums, and I know for a lot of T's, this 'woe-is-me' is just a facade for pride....they take PRIDE in being 'cold and hard and logical, and, emotionally retarded'...weirdly enough)
A F on his flaws due to weakness of T: Yeah, I know that I am not too rational or logical and can get too emotional about stuff
(imo, this is a true admittance of flaw versus the above scenario, esp. with evidence from how the individuals follow up statements after)
For humans, the capacity for consciousness is intrinsically linked to the rational mind. If we say that feeling is irrational, while thinking is rational...we've already set it up for prejudice. We must first break stereotypes that T > F when it comes to predictability of intelligence/smarts.
