    Describe all the types in your own way

    What do you have to say about the 16 types?

    Here's a template for you:
    ESTJ:
    ISTJ:
    ESFJ:
    ISFJ:

    ESTP:
    ISTP:
    ESFP:
    ISFP:



    ENTJ:
    INTJ:
    ENTP:
    INTP:

    ENFJ:
    INFJ:
    ENFP:
    INFP:

    I'll start:
    ENTJ: blunt and commanding, doesn't understand personal freedom and therefore dictates, most intelligent in intelligence that can be applied to the world, very logical and good at proving you wrong, may argue destructively, they are always on a mission to get things done as fast as possible, wear expensive designer clothes, because they want to be seen as high status individuals, appreciates other people based on how much they know about things, becomes CEO or hedge fund manager
    INTJ: aloof and intelligent, their words are well thought out, easily noticeable that their thoughts go behind what meets the eye, spacey and not into taking physical risks, inexpressive face, constructs well-structured plans and theories alone at home, surprisingly interested in philosophy and ethics, becomes university professor after gaining PhD
    ENTP: imaginative and clever, they grasp things quickly and understand how mechanical things or theories work in great detail, can talk your ear out about how some thing works, exact language and great communication skills but may lecture, interested in everything in the world, very wide interests and zero focus, reads a lot of books that contain new ideas, interested in blogging and inventions, forgets to clean and wash the dishes, dislikes routine, sometimes surprised that their wrong understanding of the world made things go south, make jokes that defy good taste, becomes musician but continues education at university for fun after age 40
    INTP: analytical and lazy, quiet and asocial, nothing else to add, because they don't share information about themselves much

    ENFJ: motherly and polite, sensitive to others' hardships, wear their hearts on their sleeves, in charge and directive, but at the same time democratic and don't force people to do things, dislikes arguments, clear opinions but don't express them freely, interested in group activities where there is culture involved, social and intelligent at the same time, brightens up a room but not at all spontaneous, plan their week naturally because they want to schedule their friends, says "thank you" always, becomes English teacher
    INFJ: quiet and aloof, but nice to people although they don't go to great lengths to make people like them, teachers can't dislike them, they don't express themselves much, pale skin that hasn't seen the sun in a long time, avid reader of fiction, not into sports or excersizing, often fragile and skinny stature, probably the most conflict avoidant, maximum points from English essays, studies psychology and becomes counselor
    ENFP: enthusiastic and funny, interested in observing people and finding out what makes them tick, intuitive about people, love to tell funny stories and laughs often and easily, spontaneous and fun-loving, likes to discuss things and believes everything is possible, dislikes routine and details, wants to make changes in their lives and move around to see different cultures, finds it hard to choose a major, finally starts studying psychology but drops out before graduating
    INFP: sensitive and soft-spoken, people have to talk to them quietly and understandingly as if they were talking to a child, afraid of dark, dog poop and drunken people in the night, goes monkeyshit if someone challenges their deeply held values, often vegetarians, environmental and animal rights activists, study philosophy or English, may turn to become an organic farmer

    Can't do the Ss at this point.

    I like your ENTJ description because I like and value/favor ENTJs. However I must say it seems a tad bit biased my friend, like for example some types are described as lazy or likely to drop out and not succeed and the INFP description seems rather negative (and they get that a lot apparently). That's not to say that certain people of this type can be like that on occasion but I think the bias overshadows the full picture for ENFPs can be some of the most driven people and greatest leaders along with ENTJs, ENTPs and a great many types it is not just ENTJs and ENFJs (I've actually never even met a good ENFJ leader) and INFPs are often quite the opposite of that on the outside, they may even seem crazier/wilder then their extroverted counterparts and I've met INFPs who seem almost sociapathic. I would've just kept the basic descriptions and traits instead of going into specifics like how great a type will be at a certain job as that is more subjective to the individual and leaves room for error. But nonetheless it is supposed to be your own description of the types so never mind my opinions.

    I don't know what you found positive in the ENTJ description.

    These are just averages based on my experiences. I'm trying to highlight and exaggarate what the different personality types can be like. I know many ENFPs who have dropped out or postponed beginning their studies because they didn't know what they want to become. One ENFP girl has had seven years to decide what to study, but she isn't motivated. Most INFPs I know are vegetarians and some have actually started organic farming.

    Yes, I'm serious, but there must be another side to you INFJs, but you just don't show it easily. If you guys wouldn't write poetry all day, you would be tan and buff like ESTPs. :)

    How would you describe INFJs?

    Rofl...It's kinda funny you say that.. I am tan, not as tall as I'd like to be, and I work out a lot actually. lol...And *ahem* I enjoy writing poetry...I lie to you not.. There is another side to me/us that many people will rarely or even never see. But I'm not gonna tell anyone, maybe the wife when I find one, about those other sides of me that people rarely see. I like being this way, it confuses people. xD And to be honest, I'll leave the descriptions to the infj's themselves. I can quote a personality type or what I "perceive" about someone all day long.. But I can't describe the person.. People tend to view a person by their personality type vs them.. Not always a good thing.. However, I understand what you're saying, you can't understand someone if they never show you anything other than what you see.. And I'm cool with that.. You're describing the types in your own way. As in how you see them. That's all good. Once again, I didn't have anything against what you said, I just thought it was funny. :)

    Time to do the Ss.

    ESTJ: your supervisor, the penny-pinchers and cost-efficiency experts of society, they go to great lengths to save some money, they have a toolbox at the back of their car and all kinds of machines, incredible at building things and surprisingly inventive, but don't expect their inventions to be good-looking, because somehow decorating isn't their forte - it's good if it works efficiently in their opinion, the reason why they build things themselves is saving money, like to socialize but they aren't social in reality, not interested in how you're doing really - they just want to participate, can be quiet and serious or authoritative and argumentative depending on the situation, lacks social skills, they never laugh at themselves, they get their hands dirty to get things done, the engineer who reads Donald Duck or your micromanaging boss

    Good descriptions, but only one line for INTP? Everyone else gets a paragraph! XD
