@fallot It is very interesting, I'll give you that.

That would seem to validate my criticism.

Truth be told, I remember being impressed with the accuracy of the MBTI.

but what was your criticism @༺པརབྱར།བསངཇ༻

I don't, however, think it is some permanent assessment of me and my thinking.

it is already validated

don't decide its relevance before the fact @Claire

its a permanent assessment that you are a woman

that means something about your cognition

why can there not be other similar categories?

Wait. It's a gender determiner?

it appears validated in the same sense that I might claim to be able to throw a rock into 30 foot diameter hole.

*of course*

@༺པརབྱར།བསངཇ༻ what are you trying to say

that MBTI is bullshit?

Yes.

Yes, being female does mean that I think differently. So does my IQ.

I can't give you anything to make you see it is or isn't

except you going through the process

because its subjective

there may be other aspects similarly unalterable about a person

an MBTI type is a very broad thing though

I'll never be a people person, no matter how much I grow

I feel as if a sufficiently naive person visiting a palm reader would say something similar.

my 5 month old baby is obiousvly not a people person

@༺པརབྱར།བསངཇ༻ you are not coming at this the right way

you're trying to debunk

all I can say to what you say is "I guess?"

@fallot Look, I'm not trying to poo on the MBTI. I'm just not sure that its results are as immutable as you claim.

yes I understand, I dont mind if you do that anyway

what I said is, if the results are mutable

the whole thing is fundamentally worthless, nonexistent

Then I misunderstood.

Fallot but address this

I'll never be a people person, but I see the value in people skills and work to develop them because it seems like a weakness in myself

Falsification is valid.

yes but you're missing the whole point and value of it

there are many things in life we simply take for granted

to which you will never apply this level of scrutiny

trust your intuition

you are dodging
