Hello. : ) A certain gentleman obliged me and took Kiersey's pen-and-paper test, and I'd love to give you the opportunity to confirm the results (to be posted after a decent number of replies). Thanks, and happy typing!

Stances
Against the Iraq war and recent attacks on Libya ("We're only there for the oil! We didn't do anything in Cairo because they have nothing we want.").
Morally against abortion ("It's like a murder.") but would consider if his girlfriend got pregnant ("Think about it -- you have food, diapers, shots, clothing, and we live paycheck to paycheck.").
Is against anything that's illegal and "bad" (drugs) but is for illegal things that are "good" (loopholes that help people).
Against homosexuality ("It's not natural. God made men with penises and women with vaginas. They naturally go together.").
Very devoted to his family and says often that he would never cheat on his future wife.
Once his ex-wife left him for someone else, that was it. There was no consideration of going back to the relationship.
Communicating/Relating
Directing and commanding in communication style ("Do it this way. Pick that up. Blow out the candle. Do that first.)"
Wants to deal with conflicts right away, in the moment.
Shows his love through actions – cooking a meal, bringing home a favorite beverage, being a generous and attentive host.
When he makes a commitment to someone he follows through (and this is very important to him).
Asked for a list of things that make his girlfriend unhappy / unhappy that he does / can do.
Is not consistently affectionate and especially not in public. When he withdraws affection, girlfriend withdraws affection to match, which brings out a "Hey! Why aren't you hugging me?! Why didn't you kiss me hello?!" response from him.
Actively working on being more affectionate in public (his prompting).
Once he says something, he expects the other person to think of that as a final, unalterable statement/position.
Gets into conflict with INFP girlfriend when he makes statements like, “You’d be hotter with long hair. And I’d love you more,†and “You’re friend’s hair smells nice,†and “You shouldn’t feel that way. You’re being silly and acting like a child.â€
