That's so not true. I have feelings. 1) very good, 2) ok, and 3) i'm not fine, leave me alone. Everything that is not "good" or "ok" is in the category 3. So all of the 3 feels exactly the same - hungry, tired, angry, restless, nervous, unhappy, sick, pain, very angry etc.
I feel often I'm a moron reading other people's states of mind but I can guess not everyone here fits as much to the INTP than I do ..
"Don't ever become a pessimist; a pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun--and neither can stop the march of events."
-Lazarus Long in Time Enough for Love by Robert A. Heinlein
Quiet, serious, sensitive and kind. Do not like conflict, and not likely to do things which may generate conflict. Loyal and faithful. Extremely well-developed senses, and aesthetic appreciation for beauty. Not interested in leading or controlling others. Flexible and open-minded. Likely to be original and creative. Enjoy the present moment.
When doing a workshop in the US some years ago, I did the MBTI test and got an INTJ. (with a tie between E and I and rather strong N, T, J). Previously, I did two other online tests and got slightly other results which I do not remember. From reading the descriptions, I think I'm more ENTP than INTJ.
I talked with the instructor about that: There exist localized versions of the tests. The test I did was the US version. It was in english and made with US cultural background. There was e.g. a block of questions "which word in each pair appeals to you more". Even though Carol A recently affirmed my english language skills, there were some subtle differences in some words where the results were more influenced by my english knowledge than by my personality.
BTW: After taking the test, we were separated into 4 groups of people with similar test results. Then each group got a flip chart paper and had to describe "the ideal organization". Three groups did some bulleted lists. One group had a rather chaotic looking picture. The instructor told us, this happens everytime he does this excercise, so it is not only BS...

I was middle of the road I/E, strong N, strong F, strong P.
