I scored

I 33
N 25
T 12
J 1

moderately expressed introvert
moderately expressed intuitive personality
slightly expressed thinking personality
slightly expressed judging personality

I was expecting a higher score in the thinking area. But then I found out I am among the very few. The Mastermind description fits exactly my personality. I'm not showing off. In fact, I rarely take command in a project until I see nobody else is capable of doing what I can do.

The other category for me is the Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Judging. Which is also right on target. I can easily emphatize with lots of people but personal relationships are not as easy because of my rational mind. I am aware of this and try to keep it in the back of my mind but sometimes it stays way back

I'm moderately expressing everything.

Hmm...I guess I just hear the beat of a different drummer...and right now he's playing a funky-ass beat!

Mr. Funk
Two F's on the same test...damn...I think I have to retake Personality 101...

[Vespertine]

Extroverted: 100/100
Sensing: 1/1
Feeling: 88/75
Perceiving: 56/67

I retook the test too. I still scored the same on the first two, but I'm feeling less and perceiving more now.

I'm amazed that at once in my life I'm not a total introvert, just moderate LOL That's something I've been working on for years and years.

And the INFP means I'm a Healer Idealist, I guess it's a good thing I went into nursing!

ALOE!! A fellow INFP! There are lots of extroverts here on SwingersBoard; we introverts must stick together I took this same test some years ago, and though I feel my personality has undergone major changes in that time, I guess my basic hard-wiring has remained the same. INFP, AKA: Idealist Healer. Here's the descripton of our type:

Idealists, as a temperament, are passionately concerned with personal growth and development. Idealists strive to discover who they are and how they can become their best possible self -- always this quest for self-knowledge and self-improvement drives their imagination. And they want to help others make the journey. Idealists are naturally drawn to working with people, and whether in education or counseling, in social services or personnel work, in journalism or the ministry, they are gifted at helping others find their way in life, often inspiring them to grow as individuals and to fulfill their potentials.

Idealists are sure that friendly cooperation is the best way for people to achieve their goals. Conflict and confrontation upset them because they seem to put up angry barriers between people. Idealists dream of creating harmonious, even caring personal relations, and they have a unique talent for helping people get along with each other and work together for the good of all. Such interpersonal harmony might be a romantic ideal, but then Idealists are incurable romantics who prefer to focus on what might be, rather than what is. The real, practical world is only a starting place for Idealists; they believe that life is filled with possibilities waiting to be realized, rich with meanings calling out to be understood. This idea of a mystical or spiritual dimension to life, the "not visible" or the "not yet" that can only be known through intuition or by a leap of faith, is far more important to Idealists than the world of material things.

Highly ethical in their actions, Idealists hold themselves to a strict standard of personal integrity. They must be true to themselves and to others, and they can be quite hard on themselves when they are dishonest, or when they are false or insincere. More often, however, Idealists are the very soul of kindness. Particularly in their personal relationships, Idealists are without question filled with love and good will. They believe in giving of themselves to help others; they cherish a few warm, sensitive friendships; they strive for a special rapport with their children; and in marriage they wish to find a "soulmate," someone with whom they can bond emotionally and spiritually, sharing their deepest feelings and their complex inner worlds.

Idealists are rare, making up between 20 and 25 percent of the population. But their ability to inspire people with their enthusiasm and their idealism has given them influence far beyond their numbers.

See that? We're RARE. lol
*Sigh* I just love taking these tests.

Hurray! I'm not alone LOL

Really, when you think about it most people would expect swingers to be more extroverted. Maybe that's why I've enjoyed swinging as much as I have. It really helps bring me out of my shell.

[intuition897]

We've had the thread, now here's the poll!

Take the test and then vote your type. For descriptions of the types, try this website. For a different version of the test (you need to enter your email address for this one...which is why I keep a decoy address for times such as these ) try this website. It's a Kiersey Temperament Sorter. It gives you a good description after your results, too, but you need to buy a 'report' if you want more detail.

I just thought it would be interesting to see if there was a distinct pattern as far as personality type goes. It would be even more interesting to see how this data correlated to success at swinging, experience, relationship satisfaction, etc. Unfortunately, I think that's beyond the scope of this poll.
I'm hoping that everyone who sees this poll will vote on it. Need lots of data.

[Vespertine]

WOot-WoOt! I popped your poll's cherry.

Interesting poll, can't wait to see the results. I wonder if there is any one personality type that is going to be dominant.

[confunktion]

The Introverted One has voted.

I too hope there is much data. I wonder what an appropriate sample size will have to be in order to draw any conclusions...

Climbing back into my shell...an avant garde shell...

INTROVERT....I think not!!!

[intuition897]

I wish I had been thinking more clearly and made the poll so that more than one selection could be made. That way we could all put our own AND our spouse's personality type. Could've gotten twice the data. :slam" For the record, Mr. intuition is a Guardian Inspector (ISTJ). I have no idea if it's supposed to fit well with my Idealist Healer personality, but other than occasional clashes - which every couple is prone to - we get along famously .

[LongPlayShareD]

ISFJ,,,,,mmmm.
I'll admit I am intro I do listen to what others want to share
Sensing goes along with Adhere to others per-say
Feeling others senses,intro to their beliefs, desires.
Judging to those who are normal,,to those others-- who are off the wall..lol

MMmmmm... I guess those psychology classes paid off .. Surrender
