Protest By Women In India About Rapes - India's Daughter

A friend sent me this picture.

This is a wrong analogy. Do we remember the Muslim guy who was eaten by a tiger in Delhi zoo because he fell inside? the response in the picture forgets that the environment outside is looking to eat you... just like a tiger or a thief or a rapist.

Just like it's unsafe to go drive a bike without a helmet or leave the house unlocked, it is unsafe for women to venture out in skimpy clothes. This doesn't mean that thieves have a right to steal from unlocked houses or for people to rape etc.

We are confusing culpability and safety. Plenty of houses are robbed when the house wasn't empty in the first place. But you won't go on a tour leaving your house unlocked, will you? And then be indignant that your house has a right not to be "molested"? 

The persons who rape or steal have something wrong in them. Something wrong in their wiring. Read this to get an idea about criminals.

But it behooves us to take necessary precautions and keep our doors locked and cover ourselves while outside. Expecting that thieves or rapists should have high morality is impractical.

This is not an issue solely relevant to women. If men venture into dangerous areas unmindful of dangers and expecting "tigers" to not eat them (or criminals not to rob / murder them) because they don't eat tigers - doesn't sound sensible. 

Some men, the criminals, are no different from tigers.

Thinking Woman And Feeling Man


But I don't agree that F makes a man a wimp, that he won't have killer instinct. It is my strong belief that F is what makes a person (man or woman) a go- getter, if combined with a strong Mars (energy). And Mars has nothing to do with T.

Look at the CEO's, rapists, murderers and see if you find T there or F there.

Tests To Find Your MBTI Type

Tests to find your type (in order of how I was comfortable taking them, most first. Comfortable meaning the options make it easy for me to choose with less ambiguity/doubt):
How do you find out dominant, auxiliary, tertiary and inferior functions: 
The dominant and the inferior function will both be introverted or both extroverted depending on whether a person is IXYZ or EXYZ. The auxiliary and tertiary functions will both be the opposite (meaning extroverted for an I and introverted for an E).

T, F are the judging functions while N, S are the perceiving functions. 

         Extraverted function                           Dominant Function
If a person is J: Judging function Y        If a person is I: Introverted function
if a person is P: Perceiving function X    If a person is E: Extraverted function 

Example 1: INFP
  • Because of the P, the person will have the X (=N in this case) as the extraverted function.
  • Y (=F in this case) will be the introverted function. 
  • Thus the person has Ne and Fi as dominant and auxiliary functions.
  • The dominant function will be one of X or Y and will be that one which is introverted because the person is an I. Thus Fi is the dominant function(and its mirror opposite Te as the inferior function).
  • Ne will be the auxiliary function (and its mirror opposite Si as the tertiary function).

Example 2: ESTP
  • Because of the P, the person will have the X (=S in this case) as the extraverted function.
  • Y (=T in this case) will be the introverted function. 
  • Thus the person has Se and Ti as dominant and auxiliary functions.
  • The dominant function will be one of X or Y and will be that one which is extraverted because the person is an E. Thus Se is the dominant function(and its mirror opposite Ni as the inferior function).
  • Ti will be the auxiliary function (and its mirror opposite Fe as the tertiary function).

Example 3: ENFJ
  • Because of the J, the person will have the Y (=F in this case) as the extraverted function.
  • X (=N in this case) will be the introverted function. 
  • Thus the person has Fe and Ni as dominant and auxiliary functions.
  • The dominant function will be one of X or Y and will be that one which is extraverted because the person is an E. Thus Fe is the dominant function (and its mirror opposite Ti as the inferior function).
  • Ni will be the auxiliary function (and its mirror opposite Se as the tertiary function).

I have shown the details for each of the MBTI types here. The data is presented in a tabular format in Google spreadsheets and you can play around by filtering on various columns (not recommended for F's!)


If someone has Si (perceiving function) as the dominant function, what type is he? Because the dominant function has i, the person is introverted, X=S. So,The person is ISYZ, we need to find Y and Z. And Y is the extraverted function. If the person is J, the extraverted function will be the judging function (F/T) and the introverted function will be the perceiving function (N/S). Therefore he is a J. Hence the person is ISYJ, where Y, the judging function, can be T or F. Both ISTJ and ISFJ have Si as the dominant function.

INTJ

Understanding INTJ's (MBTI)


Posts on understanding: 


A quote on INTJ from http://www.typelogic.com/intj.html "This (issues in interpersonal relationships) happens in part because many INTJs do not readily grasp the social rituals; for instance, they tend to have little patience and less understanding of such things as small talk and flirtation (which most types consider half the fun of a relationship). To complicate matters, INTJs are usually extremely private people, and can often be naturally impassive as well, which makes them easy to misread and misunderstand. Perhaps the most fundamental problem, however, is that INTJs really want people to make sense. :-) This sometimes results in a peculiar naivete', paralleling that of many Fs -- only instead of expecting inexhaustible affection and empathy from a romantic relationship, the INTJ will expect inexhaustible reasonability and directness."

This is one of the most accurate articles I have read about this personality: http://tuskasc.com/things-that-you-dont-know-about-an-intj-1/ (parts 2, 3 also.)

Quotes from this:
"People who play mind games, engage in power play, act superior, vain, superficial, liars, cheaters, over smart people or plain a**holes turn them off easily and they avoid them at all costs."
"Even in adolescence they are regarded as "old souls" due to their austerity, seriousness and for being obsessive perfectionists."
"INTJ's seem to get respect and admiration without trying, wherever they go, even though they hardly interact. However other attention seekers might not like this and try to challenge them in some ways to challenge their superiority. The clever people see their innate fairness, consider this as their [INTJ's] weakness and they try to trap the INTJ's by playing mind games or verbal sparring. They try to belittle / defame / accuse them when they are perceived as threat. The INTJ's realize their true intentions quickly, loathes the petty and trivial interests of such people and acts accordingly. Depending on the situation, in such circumstances the INTJ might erupt into great rage and do shocking things in complete uncontrolled blind fury where they don't spare anybody nearby."
"An adult INTJ operates in two modes all the time - thinking or analyzing. He can be completely oblivious of his surroundings when he is in the "thinking mode". When he is in the "analysis mode" he is actively observing (Se) and noticing every small detail around him. Then this information is fed into his imagination."
"Others try to use an INTJ by carefully crafted lies and manipulation. Hence their acts of manipulation treachery, lying, cheating, betrayal disgusts an INTJ and makes them lose their faith in humanity. They may consider leaving everything and seek a reclusive life in some unknown corner of the world where nobody would bother them."
I am exceedingly surprised that the author has typed Ayn Rand as ISTJ considering that the heroes in Atlas Shrugged did exactly what is mentioned in the previous para and the author obviously identifies herself with the heroes. By no stretch of imagination can I think of Ayn Rand as ISTJ.

Why INTJ's are thought of as a**holes without sensitivity: https://plus.google.com/+WillBurns/posts/CqfBKyKgGiG - very nice.

A colorful set of do's and dont's while dealing with INTJ's are here. A few are listed below.
Do you really, truthfully want to know if those jeans make your ass look fat? Normal person’s response: “Um, no, you look fine. Really.” Honest person’s response: “Well… maybe a different belt would help?” INTJ’s response: “No, it’s not the jeans that make your ass look fat; it’s your fat ass that makes your ass look fat.”DON’T take 100 words to say what could have been said in 10. Content-free speech will cause an INTJ to zone out faster than repeating yourself.

A nice quote from https://psyphics.wordpress.com/2012/09/02/infj-vs-infp/
"Ni searches for depth, meaning and significance in the world. It can be thought of an elastic web of insights that is constantly being refined and expanded. The goal of the function is to filter out biases and refine perception to arrive at the “one truth”. Monism, the notion that there is one truth is at the core of Ni. For this reason, it may be mistaken for Ti, especially in INTJs and INFJs with under-developed Fe. However, Ti can be conceptualized like a solid grid of principles and rules that serve as a filter function to determine if the provided data is true/valid or false/invalid. The difference here lies in the fact that Ti works similar to a mathematical function, an input is given, Ti processes the logic and returns an output. Ni, on the other hand works similar to a fine tuning radio or a camera lens that is constantly readjusted to get the right data. When it is not active in the external world, it enriches the INFJs internal world with imagination, philosophical insight, fantasy, poetic ideas and a never-ending curiosity about why things are the way they are."
INTJ's are usually better described by Enneagram type 5. One might want to check that.

Feeling Or Thinking

Just like Sensing and Intuition (in MBTI) are different, the judging and perceiving preferences are also very different. Thinking and Feeling have similar differences:
  1. The question: Is there a purpose is asked by a Thinking person. To a feeling person having a logical purpose is unnecessary. While an aesthetic appreciation is fundamental to an F. 
  2. As I had mentioned in an earlier post, the opinion that something seems "contradictory" occurs to a thinking person. An F would not have the need to be rationally consistent. A contradiction is taken to be a serious issue by a T. An F does have contradiction as part of his value system.
  3. "Have faith" are key words of an F. 
  4. F's would hate to slot people and objects into defined categories. T's would be naturally inclined to slotting.
  5. F's (especially extroverted and perceiving) would come across as very empathetic. T's (especially introverted and Judging) would come across as unempathetic. A Judging personality is much better off combined with a F than with a T. FJ's would come across as more pleasant than TJ's.
  6. F's (especially extraverted ones) would make great lawyers. T's would make good judges.
  7. An F is usually extremely sensitive to physical pain and there is high need for comfort. A T usually is/does not.
  8. An F knows the value of packaging and communicating a message appropriately. This does not come naturally to a T and it's not part of his value system.
  9. F has affection, love, fear, greed etc. T does not feel these much. T respects.
  10. When asked to compare two things, T is likely to use a tabular representation (unlike the F who is generally uncomfortable with the process of identifying parameters where the two things differ). An F is more likely to give an essay type answer.
  11. When someone mentions a problem, a T would try to find a solution for the problem. An F is likely to say something context independent like (in Tamil) "உங்க  à®¨à®²்ல மனசுக்கு எல்லாà®®் நல்லபடியா நடக்குà®®்" or (in English) "I don't know why such things happen to good people. But be patient. Things will definitely work out for you.". I say it's context independent because it can be used no matter what the nature of the problem is.
  12. Today i was watching the movie Jayamkondan where a mother says about her daughter "அவளுக்கு தர்கரீதியா பேசத்தெà®°ியுà®®். அனால் தர்மரீதியா பேசத்தெà®°ியாது" - meaning the daughter can argue a point well but she doesn't know right from wrong. I guess she implied that her daughter was a T and not an F. I don't agree that F are more moral than T. They definitely feel more for a person's problem than a T would. But that doesn't make them more moral. 
  13. T is perfectly happy if a rule (even a complicated one but one needs no human intervention / interpretation) can handle difficult situations. F will be aghast thinking of a rule being empowered with handling complex situations.

These do not mean that F people are in any way inferior to T or vice versa. The two are different just as left handed and right handed people are different. Shaking hands is just a little more awkward between the two.

In schools, we encourage children to be J's regardless of whether a child is naturally a J or a P. P nature is discouraged in students. This is rather unfortunate. It is the P nature which helps people to become more adaptable and adjust to circumstances. I wish we had a curriculum in schools which appreciated appreciation of the P nature. J's who had been achievers academically in school have a hard time coming to terms with the open ended nature of the world we live in. It's a severe shock to J's which they are unprepared for. 
I wish the people who define school curriculum take this into account. Adult life doesn't need as much of finishing all homework in time and passing exams. Granted, a J student cannot be changed to a P but at least he needs to know what he hasn't got and that P is very important for a happy life.

ATF

ATF - fuel for aircrafts - price has increased to about Rs 50 per liter as per today's news. And I read today that 737 aircraft fuel economy is about 0.17nautical mile/liter = 0.31km/liter. And this translates to a fuel cost of Rs 150/km for the aircraft.

And they say, fuel costs are about half the total cost. So the total cost is about Rs 300/km. Passenger tickets cost about Rs 6/km for travel within India. So if each aircraft carries 50 passengers paying full fare, the airline breaks even. Since airlines seem to be performing poorly, are 100 seater aircrafts carrying less than 50 to 60 paid passengers?

Intuitive Or Sensing?

I have been worried a lot about the difference about sensing (S) and intuition (N) (MBTI). The people I thought were intuitive and saw patterns and understood what you had to say before you said them, were strong sensors. 

I keep getting to a stage where I think at last I understood the difference between S and N only to realize later that I am back to where I started.

Today, i read this (from http://www.thepeopleprocess.com/articles/sensor-or-intuitive.php): Quote from there:


"The gathering of Information dimension represents the greatest potential for differences between people, since it applies to our worldview. For instance, I am an Intuitive and a couple of years ago did some marketing for a civil engineering company. Most civil engineers prefer Sensing to take in information and when giving information relate it in terms of specific facts, numerical order and systemization. When the engineers I worked with gave me information for a project, my brain literally froze and I couldn't think until I translated the information through my Intuitive frame of reference. I needed to know what we were trying to achieve and the purpose of the project. Once that was clear, I was able to understand what to do with the facts and what information the engineers needed from me. And, I'm sure that when I presented Information to the group of engineers I was working with, my tendency to describe the big picture without the facts leading up was just as confusing to them. Sensors see the individual trees and Intuitives see the forest. Sensors spend a lot of time describing detail and Intuitives can become impatient with this detail preferring the "bottom line" approach to giving and receiving Information."

I have known people who went through the same kind of experience "brain literally freezing" until they knew what the objective or context was. But the same people (they are definitely T and I assume they are N) are hardly "big picture" and "lost in thought" kind of people when there is some job to be done. Perhaps it's the J and not the N which makes these people get on with something instead of just theorizing. Maybe the presence of J makes an N very different from the classical definition of the N type.

When it came to academic theorizing about things not immediately relevant to day to day living, they seemed to be N. But when it came to their daily life, perhaps because of their J, they seemed to be "at it". The N was a private (like "Mr Hyde") part of them. The N nature was obvious by a marked absence of any interest or ability in sensing unless there was an activity to be completed. And no, the ones I know do not have gut feel, intuition etc the kind that feminine nature is supposedly empowered to be with.

The "dark" intuitive nature was not always visible. It came to light only while doing certain activities. And then it would seem like they have become a very different person, an amazing transformation. And these "N's" do not have any idea of the big picture nor can they "read between the lines". They may not have a clear picture / vision of future possibilities as mentioned here and here. They may not be disorganized. 
But, they do go beyond the data to see what the data implies - just as Newton saw beyond the apple. Newton saw the "big picture" behind the apple falling. But that was not in real time, it was much later. Perhaps years later. Nor did he read between the lines. I wonder what kind of gut feel or intuition Newton had, or even whether he had any... Would those definitions mentioned in the links above apply to Newton? Or was he Sensing?

I know a person who seems to be a combination of IxTJ and EyFP, almost a dual personality. IxTJ in profession and IyFP in his personal space. One of x and y is S and the other is N. I am not sure whether x is N or y is N. It is interesting to note that the dominant, auxiliary, tertiary and inferior functions of both the times are the same.
The following quotes from http://careerassessmentsite.com/tests/myers-briggs-tests/about-the-myers-briggs-type-indicator/ seems to fit one part of his personality perfectly.
"Adaptable Innovators (NP) are constantly seeking new challenges of the unknown and are able to adjust to new opportunities and possibilities as they arise. They love their creative freedom and are independent and unconventional in their thought and decision making process. They like to explore new solutions for not only new problems, but also old problems that they feel can be improved upon. It is also not uncommon to see MBTI NP types to proceed head-first into challenges that others may see as very difficult or impossible."

About Thoughtful Innovators (IN=Introverted Intuitive): "Non IN Types also have a tendency to judge MBTI IN Types as being too serious and for missing out on many of the aspects of life that are associated with a practical outlook. Thoughtful Innovators are very serious academically and unfortunately the modern workplace does not provide many career fields where individuals can spend the majority of their time on intellectual pursuits." 

If one considers the "Openness" scale of 5 factor model, the person would score very low for openness towards experiencing new stuff in the sensory world. The same person would score high in his abstract world of new ideas. How would the 5 factor theory rate such people on openness? Following added on 8th May 2017: I believe that Openness comes from P (as in MBTI) for life events or sensory things and from N for new ideas. Thus NP's will probably be the people most open in many respects.

The following is a quote from
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openness_to_experience:
"A number of studies have found that openness to experience has two major subcomponents, one related to intellectual dispositions, the other related to the experiential aspects of openness, such as aesthetic appreciation and openness to sensory experiences. These subcomponents have been referred to as intellect and experiencing openness respectively, and have a strong positive correlation (r = .55) with each other.""Openness to experience, especially the Ideas facet, is related to need for cognition, a motivational tendency to think about ideas, scrutinize information, and enjoy solving puzzles, and to typical intellectual engagement (a similar construct to need for cognition)."The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) measures the preference of "intuition," which is related to openness to experience. Robert McCrae pointed out that the MBTI sensation versus intuition scale "contrasts a preference for the factual, simple and conventional with a preference for the possible, complex, and original," and is therefore similar to measures of openness. As per http://psp.sagepub.com/content/36/1/82 (this article is quoted in the wiki link above), Need for Cognition (NFC) was more associated with fluid than with crystallized aspects of intelligence. Quote from that article - "NFC to be positively correlated with openness, emotional stability, and traits indicating goal orientation. Using confirmatory factor analysis and event-related potentials, incremental validity of NFC and openness to ideas was demonstrated, showing that NFC is more predictive of drive-related and goal-oriented behavior and attentional resource allocation."



Is it possible that the low openness towards aesthetic and sensory things is because of the SJ nature of the person mentioned earlier and the high for abstractions is because of the NP in him? Unfortunately, the "Openness" of five factor model includes two distinct components - that towards Sensory appreciation and the one towards abstract appreciation. I am uncomfortable any time when a factor consists of two distinctly different and independent components even if they are not mutually exclusive.

Read this very intriguing article about multiple MBTI types in a single person. This article is worth reading.

Maybe the NTJ's are a weird lot. Note that where I have mentioned N's I refer to NT's. 

Sensors have a great memory. N's tend to go beyond storing and retrieving of data. And some N's do not read between the lines. This is a lovely article on the difference between S and N and between NF and NT. Maybe discoveries are made by S. And new theories and inventions by N's. 

In the novel Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand the author would mention 2 kinds of people - one who would only read the editorial and one who would read the rest of the paper and not the editorial. Is there a S/N difference among the two types? 

I was watching the movie Lagaan where the English lady explains the game of cricket while the hero listens intently to her. The heroine watches the hero's expression and she "senses" something wrong. Now while anyone would have just seen the hero trying to understand cricket from a "coach", the heroine sees something different. What caused it? Her F or N?

Similarly in the Cadbury's advertisement (in Hindi) where a girl is about to serve some refreshments to some a guy called "Sid" and she mocks his accent, mimicking "London, New York", and his talk to her elder sister. The elder sister "intuits" winks at her younger sister and having found that the younger sister actually is enamored by "Sid". Again, the same question: What caused the elder sister to find out?

A quote from http://www.awinningpersonality.com/psychology/the-big-5-personality-traits/agreeableness/: "Abstract thinking is bad for empathy. As Marilyn Manson (and perhaps others before her) said, “The death of one is a tragedy; the death of millions is just a statistic.” "

 Does this mean N people are less empathetic than S people? I think the concept of altruism and examples quoted seem to miss one point. How much do altruistic people depend on "inward altruism (= begging or stealing)" - meaning their propensity to derive funds or benefits towards themselves without paying for it in any form or paying substantially less than the market value? Altruism should be looked at as the net contribution made by people (subtracting inward altruism or unfair benefits received) and not just towards payments. Who is the moocher? The ones without empathy or the ones with? Do people consider whether abstract thinkers beg or steal?

Change In Behavior

I saw this today. Very true.. We respond to others depending on how they are to us. Our attitude and behavior does depend on what we perceive.  

It is quite possible that we wear conservative dress because we see others dress wearing immodest revealing dress and and we think "yuck, not me. I will never do that".

 This is in response to a thought that I have been having... Are our thoughts (read: values) constant or are they dynamically changing? 

 How we are as a person: are we static or do we drastically change depending on who we are with?

 Put another way, how much of what we are is static and how much is a reflection of who we are with..

Entrepreneurs And Employees

Lovely article on the difference in the nature between entrepreneurs and employees:
http://www.businessinsider.in/Scientists-have-discovered-a-personality-difference-between-entrepreneurs-and-employees/articleshow/46305421.cms

http://www.jite.org/documents/Vol8/JITEv8p029-043Johnston281.pdf

A classification of types from the link above:
The four temperaments that Keirsey and Bates (1998) identified are:
  • Artisans – Live one day at a time, and can be classified by the following personalitytypes: ESTP, ISTP, ESFP, ISFP.
  • Guardians – Are driven by responsibility, and possess one of the following personality types: ESTJ, ISTJ, ESFJ, ISFJ.
  • Rationals –Seek knowledge and competence in all they take on, and can be recognised by the following personality types: ENTJ, INTJ, ENTP, INTP. Johnston, Andersen, Davidge-Pitts and; Ostensen-Saunders.
  • Idealists – Are soul searchers who constantly quest for meaning and significance in their lives, with the following personality types: ENFJ, INFJ, ENFP, INFP.
Keirsey and Bates (1998) divided the four temperaments into two groups: “Earthlings” which consisted of Artisans and Guardians (all S), and “Martians” (all N) which consisted of Rationals and Idealists. 
As per this article, entrepreneurs are likely to be S because of the need for entrepreneurs to live and survive in a practical world. "Head in the clouds" (N) is a good fit for systems analysts but not for entrepreneurs. The paper suggests that entrepreneurs are more likely to be J than P. I disagree. I believe that J's form good managers, entrepreneurs should be open, flexible focused on the big picture than the immediate closure of issues. The paper also finds three correlations (not very strong though).
  • Entrepreneurship correlates with P (I don't understand why the paper mentioned the opposite earlier.)
  • F and N are correlated. I have always suspected this because both F and N (Ne actually) are intuitive, able to look beyond the obvious. Both derive from Venusian influence. 
  • J, T and I are correlated. I have suspected this also (J and T). I, T and J derive from Saturnine influence. Actually I believe E, Ne, F, P are kinda similar traits. E, F and P being people-centric and pleasant. While Ne and F are both similar in terms of their intuitive nature. Again I, T, J are all similar - they seem to go together, all of them being generally unpleasant.
The article also mentions that innovative entrepreneurs are intuitive. I call them the creators. I have explained this later in this post.

Another definition of entrepreneur from the same link above:
Deo (2005) defines an entrepreneur from two different viewpoints: that of an economist and a psychologist:1. “To an economist, an entrepreneur is one who brings resources, labour, materials and other assets into combinations that makes their value greater than before, and also one who introduces changes, innovations, and a new order.”2. “To a psychologist, such a person is typically driven by certain forces-the need to obtain or attain something, to experiment, to accomplish, or perhaps to escape the authority of others.” 
Entrepreneurs having a driving ambition and an ability to risk it all. Risk taking is a Martian trait. Driving ambition comes from Venus. An introverted person is unlikely to be an entrepreneur. The likely MBTI group that are entrepreneurs are E*FP. An entrepreneur is unlikely to be a T. More likely to be E*FP. Some entrepreneurs are actually creator who stumbled into entrepreneurship. An entrepreneur is a person who is driven to achieve, on the way he tries to find his calling. A creator knows what his calling is. Creator is likely to be I*TP.

On this subject:


"The INTP the perfect right hand man for any entrepreneur." from http://www.quora.com/What-Myers-Briggs-personality-type-are-most-entrepreneurs

"I'm starting to feel that entrepreneurship requires a team with two members, one who exhibits ENTP and one who is an INTJ, or some combination thereof. I've noticed that teams that are too J build one product with too much detail whereas teams that are too P focused build too many products with little detail." from http://www.quora.com/What-Myers-Briggs-Type-Indicator-(MBTI)-types-are-best-suited-to-entrepreneurship.

I saw a table listing attributes needed in leaders in this article.
Most of the attributes seem to FP related. TJ skills such as Planning, Analytical Ability, Functional / Technical Expertise were among the 5 least frequently selected attributes. The frequently chosen attributes were largely ones were Emotional Intelligence attributes.
