I gag a little every time I search for MBTI on Google, Pinterest or Twitter and see the “Fact” declarations about different personality types.  They’re always based on vastly oversimplified versions of each type and always end up super arrogant about the whole thing.  Arrogance is annoying, but it’s the stereotyping of each type that really gets to me.  The “Fact” statements always seem to include statements that put particular types down as overemotional little girls and say that it’s okay for the other types to be complete jerks.  As I said here, that’s not psychology or sociology; that’s just crap.  So I thought I’d take a crack at the format and see if I can bring a bit of fresh air to the topic.

Remember, in the words of the sage Levar Burton, you don’t have to take my word for it.  Go with what makes sense.  Learn these things yourself and bring your own insights to the table.  No one can say they have the last word on personality typing because you can’t patent the human brain and there is always more to discover.
