What is that supposed to mean? Were you offended by me calling most people on here uneducated? I'm sorry if you took it personally, I was just trying to say that I will take a professional's opinion over the average mbti geek. Most people on here use more stereotypes when typing fictional characters and celebrities than actual evidence, so it's easier to trust the owner of a site that many psychologists call the one true mbti site.
What, so you are just going to blindly trust some kind of external authority, lol? What happened to one's ability to think independently and critically, and examine authority and arrive at your own independent conclusions? Just because they are a big MBTI site and they have studied Jung, it doesn't mean they are always right. A person can be just as educated without a PhD. Titles don't infer ability to assimilate knowledge; simply that you received a formal education.
I have no doubt that some of the typings on there are inaccurate. I don't think any typing done based on what is known about a celebrity really can be that accurate. The reason I believe in their typings is that they have stereotype free typings. They don't buy into the fact that sensors are superficial or that intuition is imaginative, plus they actually debate their points if someone thinks they are wrong and regularly adapt their typings if someone makes a good case. Chances are if the typing is being done by a professional psychologist that is actually considering the opinions of many other professionals then most of the typings are going to be accurate. Just out of curiosity, what specific ideas does he use in his typings that you doubt?
The part in bold is honestly laughable as an argument. A lot of people who study the system a little more beyond the function dichotomies arrive at these conclusions as well; it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand, assuming that one actually is able to somewhat assimilate a deeper understanding of what Jungian cognition is about.
Jungian typing is a very interpretative kind of science, and as such, any person is as able and capable to interpret, assuming one has a basic grasp of the system in question, which most people even in online circles, have.
I think Eminem's an ISFP 6 - not sure about the wing tho.
