What is your MBTI?

I seem to get Logician (INTP-A) every time. But I have no problem with that title—it’s quite flattering, imo.

Technically. I just don’t like how this website talks about it. For example:

Ironically, they shouldn’t always be held at their word. INTPs rarely mean to be dishonest, but with their active mind, they sometimes overflow with ideas and theories that they haven’t thought through all the way. These personalities may change their mind on anything from their weekend plans to a fundamental moral principle without ever realizing that they’d appeared to have made up their mind in the first place.

There’s nothing dishonest about changing my mind. I’m obtaining new information and realising new things all the time. Why on earth would I stick to something I realise is wrong just because I already decided it? :roll_eyes: I hate that.

Then there’s stuff like this:

The personality types in the Analyst Role – Architects (INTJ), Logicians (INTP), Commanders (ENTJ), and Debaters (ENTP) – are known for their love of rationality. Because they share the Thinking trait, these types often aim to make decisions with their heads rather than their hearts. But Analysts are far from being robots. – Roles: Analysts | 16Personalities

That implies that someone needs to convince others that just because we’re logical doesn’t mean we’re robots.

So much stuff about us starts off on the back foot. Ugh.
