Well you aren't but, look for most signs as every INTP woman is different. That's what you need to understand. Some INTPs can get into good makeup habits. Some can't. It is all personal preference.
No INTP female would ever agree with this video. I think they have researched mbti enough to understand that hobbies, interests and hygiene have barely anything to do with your functions. We do have superiority complex but it's about our competency and not our taste. Infact most intp have a varied range of interests and are open to learn and discuss most things.
I am an INTP female and it was pretty accurate for me. I just depends on how much you are on the introvert spectrum (%). Because each of us are more or less introvert and the rest of our chart differs too. I’m 86% introvert. You’re probably closer to the extrovert side. So, don’t be a disappointing , judgmental INTP and dig deeper on the subject
"The most rare personality type." This is so wrong for so many reasons. Also, I am actually very interested about my physique. I may not be so worried about doing makeup or nails, but I'm very well kept and would also like to physically look like the best version of myself I see in my head, so there is that! I like when people look at me for the seek of me being both intelligent AND pretty.
It's possible to have traits from other personality types here and there in one's life. Knowing these personality traits helps me understand different types of people see things differently. Let's say if I were to have a partner or child who is an INTP, I now know that they may have a higher tolerance when it comes to a messy room, which is different from being lazy.
Myers-Briggs isn’t cut and dry and doesn’t account for the nuances in personality. If anything, it creates a base point of personality traits which gets expanded upon by nuance.
@@ravenm6443 And that's exactly why this video is wrong. They used MBTI to form a box of how you should act in life instead of how you process information and go about problems.
@@llgla It's possible that those traits are simply one of the multiple traits of the INTP personality type and not estranged to INTPs, as INTPs possess 4 functions just like all the other types do. Gatekeeping is not vey MBTI! INTPs don't have a "higher tolerance" to messy room; this is the wrong way to see it. What INTPs have is a lack of being grounded into reality to see the messy room in the first place and therefore if you can't see the messy room, it's simply nonexistent which makes having any form of emotion towards the messy room impossible; including having a high or low tolerance for that messy room.
As an INTP mother of two girls, I do believe we can make good parents, but that we choose to have kids at a much later date when we know we are mentally and emotionally ready
I've got two kids that I did an amazing job on, despite what people expected, but I had them both young. I'm 44 with a 22 year old son, and a 26 year old daughter. If I'd not had them young, I wouldn't think I'd have managed to get it together, at all. I was completely devoted to my kids, and still am. I may be unusual, but then I'm INTP - T
The unfortunate thing is fertility doesn't wait for any woman. Past 35 is a geriatric pregnancy. At that point there is no guarantee a woman can get pregnant. INTP women need to take this into consideration.
@@artslife3876 Women having children young with a husband and support system is the best situation and I'm glad you had the wherewithal to make it work as a young woman. While I think she is a good mom my sister had a child late and she struggles with the energy required. She's also a single mom which exacerbates things. She gets stressed out constantly while also worrying about her daughter.
@@mrod8578 I wasn't married, and to be honest, after playing witness to a huge amount of marriages my friends had over the years, I definitely don't feel like I got the rough end of the stick.
@@artslife3876 I wasn't suggesting that you were but simply stating that is generally the ideal scenario. Male/female relationships in the west are generally fractured and broken so I'm not surprised. I was simply commending you for having children young. I'm also glad you didn't get the raw end of the deal compared to your friends (western marriage is generally a 💩 show today). If you raised 2 capable human beings that can function in society chances are you did a good job. Mothers are generally the first teachers of culture and society to children which is an important role.
I am an INTP female who - Wants to look pretty (but I would be focused on so many other things that I would forget about tidying up; I literally want to look like an anime girl gosh dang it) - I do struggle being organized and keeping my family house clean (but that doesn't mean I am careless) - We're definitely NOT useless in social relations (I get along well with those that have similar mindsets to mine, and I intend to work professionally well with others in work environments, nonetheless, I prefer to spend time alone and only communicate with others when it's necessary. ) - It's true that lovey-dovey stuff doesn't get to me, but I do appreciate it if it's from genuine affection ( However, I feel most loved when I am understood and when someone likes to engage in the same interests as mine; overall if we plan a future together and reach goals together) - I don't think much about starting a family but when it's mentioned, it bumps me out (but I try not to talk fast because who knows when I might have one, but for now I just don't want any of that; besides i already have a hard time time talking with people, especially with boys in a deeper level) So everything that is said is not completely 100% incorrect, but no doubt there are things that I don't seem to relate strongly
I am OK with cleaning as long as it’s not forced ofc. But I actually love organizing like you can give me a hundred color pencils and I organize them in the order of the rainbow, and I can agree with most of what you said.
As an INTP women myself , I don't agree with all of these personality traits . Most of my best friends are females and I do care about my looks but the other stuff about bashing gender stereotypes , independence and fear of having kids is pretty relatable.
That's essentially the entire point of a personality type. You are LITERALLY being boxed into 1 of 16 boxes. It's unlikely that every trait will match perfectly, because people are individual, so 16 categories can't possibly fit them all.
INTP woman here -- a lot of this I don't relate to. I personally love fashion, make up, getting dressed up. Skin care routines are pretty important to me but yes the routine aspect of that can get old. I do relate to the parts about homemaking and having kids.
It's ok.. this video is not about what you should be.. it just a guide to know Intp female better.. but that not meant you have to be like this.. everyone have there different interest .. like I really wanna be more healthy and strong so I workout everyday.. it's important to me while people think I am lazy.. most of time yeas I am lazy..but it's not true when it come to my hobbies or passion
"i'M nOt LiKe OtHeR GiRLs!!" I hate this stereotype that INTP women are above "normal women" who only care about shallow things like appearances and celebrity gossip and whose sole purpose in life is to become housewife aka maid. Because INTP women are intelligent and like to think about meaningful things and therefore they're not like most women at all - they're like men, who are the voice of logic and reason. This mindset is sexist or when coming from women it's internalized misogyny. Listen, I'm an INTP woman. I use a lot of time for my beauty routine, I love nail art and cute cupcakes and I've always related to other women just fine. I also enjoy science, linguistics, history, writing and many other things. None of my female friends are INTP and they are all very intelligent and knowledgeable - like a lot of women are. I'm sure there are a lot of INTP women who relate to the points in the video: women who don't care about those "silly female things" society tries to condition women to like. Because guess what, there are a lot of women in all personality types who don't care for appearances, celebrities or whatnot, and yes, some have a hard time relating to others. Most women are intelligent, complex, worthy beings just like men - not some ditzy bimbos.
So true. As an INTP I can't stand how this video basically says "I'm better than other women because I'm more like men". Being the thinking-intuitive type doesn't mean we neglect feelings or senses. And even if I do sometimes, that's probably not something I'd brag about.
@@totally3totally Thank you. It was annoying and nothing INTP about it! Also, women in general are NOTHING portrayed as how women should be, but this video here makes it seem like only the INTP women are like that. Giving pick me energy
Saying that we have a hard time dealing with everyday’s chores and basic hygiene rules, doesn’t mean we feel superior. We’re different yes, but we have our flaws and this video never said we felt superior. Listen carefully
@@SuperMissRain You're the one who should be clever than that and realize it's beyond just not that. This video makes it look like that putting makeup on and etc would make you less intellectual and therefore connect masculinity to intellectuality.
In MBTI, there's such a thing as being an "unhealthy" or "healthy" type. Being unhealthy generally means that we don't express our cognitive functions appropriately, especially our tertiary and inferior functions. We may neglect them. What you are describing for the most part here, is an unhealthy INTP. Meaning, either an immature INTP (nothing to do with age but more like emotional development for ex) who hasn't started the process of developing their tertiary and inferior functions to their better potential. Or an INTP who is confronted to an environment, mental or external, not conducive for such potential expansion and who adopts suboptimal coping mechanisms. Women who relate 100% to the video, especially to what is considered in our society the less flattering parts (for ex independence bordering on isolation, no interest in outwards appearance, not being housewife material... ) : be attentive to all your functions and look for a way to develop their potential, you'll see a difference without being another self. It'll be your self but optimised 😁. Yes, we can be super interested and focused on the why's of how's of the universe AND have a clean & neat study room 😄😄. That's our power !
This is pretty much what I was thinking. To me, the video describes INTP women who haven't worked on developing their weaker functions. I actually felt somewhat insulted by how black & white the video was describing us.
I don’t care about what people perceive of my looks but I still like looking decent. I don’t walk outside smelling like trash. I enjoy looking cute and trying new looks.
Everything is true here for the most part, however in terms of family, I think it’s a little harsh. I think we are so into what we are doing it seems scary to have a family. My first (unplanned) pregnancy ended in miscarriage and it was absolutely devastating. We were able to go on and have a second pregnancy to term and I couldn’t imagine my life without my son. I get to teach him all the things I didn’t know and give him all the hugs I never had. We have a pretty special bond. -the 40 yr old INTP
I'm an INTP female myself. While I could rarely love, tolerate or relate to any of the small talk or other stereotypes and girl group conversations (edit: only when it's toxic and I hope I would find my tribe in the future but I'll not wait for it to have fun ) , I care about my looks because I know how the world works, moreover, I love looking pretty. I also love and embrace my femininity because I love who I am, the female in me. Also, I'd love to express that I'm just like any other girl but unique like every other human beings.. special like everyone else. I love organising things because I know the value of it, and what it does to me ( I grew up in a chaotic environment, and learned to keep my room, my shrine.) it makes me feel collected. I've never fit in anywhere, I tried and it's a waste of my time and energy, it's not me being me when I'm trying so hard to accomodate people who doesn't deserve it. I don't plan on having a baby, because there are enough human beings in earth, in my country, it's increasing, plus it's not my priority. I have to take good care of myself and a baby may get in the way. This doesn't mean that I hate children, I really don't mind them. I love deep things and over analysis. I'm in my head a lot. I fucking love my alone time. I can't tolerate a lot of people and people may not tolerate me. I tried and failed, i really don't plan on wasting my time on that any more. To be honest, I really don't like people, but I don't hate them. I know there are good people. I've met them. Here in my country, it's hard to find another girl or person who can relate to you, (my INFJ sister is someone who could, and that's enough) and to be honest, a lot of them (not all of them) are goddam shallow. It's true, after trying to accomodate a lot, you'll come to that conclusion in the end. I can pretty much live peacefully in my own company, I've realised that I'm at my best like that, that's good and healthy for me. Also, nobody may know me better than I do. I know myself too much, and it's never too much for me. I'm not that bad at social skills. I'll call them tools, because I was forced to develop and hone it due to the pressure around me (most around me where "social" people) , it didn't come naturally to me. Not really. But I don't really like using them so much, because I don't see any point in indulging in things I don't really like. I'm smart and I know it. I've had my share of self doubts but ultimately, after all the experiments and results, I've decided to come to a conclusion that I am. Sure, I could be dumb at times (because I'm human) but I'm hella sure. I do respect and love other people. But I've come to hate (can't help it) the shallowness in most things. So I'm just gonna continue doing ma thing. I'm not perfect. Nobody is. But I'm not bad. I'm always the better version of myself. Everytime I stumble, i learn a new lesson. I hope many intp females embrace who they are and realise who they are. People can be hard (especially if you're living in a society like mine) but trust yourself and trust others when you need it. Learn when you realise that maybe it's good for your mental health to take better measures when you meet people whom you can't handle. You can't avoid people, but you can ignore them. (Because gotta give everyone what they deserve, good or bad.) Edit: I've gotten better. I've learned to be kinder, forgiving, giving and above everything else, care less... about so many things that are simply not worth your time and energy. life sucks, but let's have fun..
I find it hard to understand myself before i realised My personality type. We do want to have friends but it's better to be alone thing. when u said about socialising I agree with you bcoz we have to communicate atleast when none is like you. That makes others hard to believe we are INTPs! I am glad to know myself more then ever. growing up in a family where i tried to be flexible but at a point i couldn't be more ...so I just accept myself that We are humans too , we ain't born perfect to fit in every single point of the society. I pretty much enjoy breaking rules when it doesn't makes sense for me any longer . I felt like i grew up with wrong pack!
My question is, what can people like us do to make an excellent income when the world is based on people and relationahips. I have to do my resume again and its all people people rah rah. Hate it. Evefy job i have i basically get fired from eventually. I do an outstanding job, but people dont get me and eventually some group bands together and gossips and creates drama and i get ousted as the problem. But ive made so much money for people, ive streamlined stuff, ive helped people with their careers, endless stuff, but I get nowhere and have to start again every damn time. Put on a fake smile, go for another interview, pretend im upbeat and driven and all that. I speak up when i see idiots making stupid business decisions, bcse i can usually see a better way of doing it, but i get told that im not a team player or good listener. But i also hate conflict so im no good in a verbal work sce ario where its he said she said and i again come off the loser even though i was right and juat and full of integrity. Does anyone have any toola foe dealing with this. Im always the odd one out.
Personal hygiene has nothing to do with your personality type though. I love being and looking clean, I love dressing up and smelling good but I do it for myself and sadly many women fail to do this shit for themselves. Also about the flowers; I love love love receiving flowers especially potted once! Well thought gifts generally get my heart beating. There's nothing more special than someone genuinely putting thought in what they gift you. My very good friend is a ENFP woman and she hates receiving flowers because she sees no point in them! Stop giving INTP women the "i'm not like other girls" stereotype because there is nothing better than finally connecting with someone on a romantic level. On any level at all
I've always identified more with the men in my life. My sister says it's internalized misogyny, but i don't think it's true. I just suppress my emotions in a toxicly masculine way lol
I am an INTP woman and I'm a very loving mother of 4. However, it is true I have male friends as apposed to female friends and it is because I find most woman to be "catie" and superficial. Which runs into an additional problem is that most men will be friends because they feel that my friendship with them is based on an unspoken attraction which shows up as the friendship progresses. Makes this difficult for me to form friendships. I like looking nice everyday and wear make up. I am not fond of housework as most people are not. I am not into love songs, flowers and chocolate. I do like beautiful surroundings and will make my home, especially my bedroom, a beautiful, comfortable place to relax in. As for myself this look into the INTP personality was close to half right.
I'm an INTP woman, and this is soooo accurate, except for the part with the family. I have 8 children thank God, and I think I'm an amazing mom, very different from the usual type, and very disorganized... but I give my children benefits and mental and emotional health that the usual type struggles to achieve. we generally have good time together, and basically, I created 8 more people in this world I can relate to, have good discussions, or just get lazy around. 🤣
Its not saying intp women cant become good mothers. We can more so doubt to become mothers due to logical thinking. Doesn't mean you can't get over those doubts and still have an amazing and beautiful family. I feel this video doesnt do the best job of describing the intp personality. It comes off very one sided when there is actually 2 different versions of the intp personality. A and T which is for assertive and turbulent.
The struggle is real. I often forget to look in the mirror before i leave my house. And i only clean my apartment once a week. Women don't like me and I am overjoyed with deep intellectual conversation.
I think I'm quite girly I'm just a little philosophical, theoretical, and systematic thinking. I love cooking, cleaning, fashion, design, hair( I'm often complemented on it) and love beauty as I am an artist. I may be more emotionally connected that other intps idk but I can fully say I've studied mbti, cognitive function, and am am total intp I'm so sick of these stereotypes because when I first got typed all of this stuff made me feel less than and horribly even though none of it is true.
My fear of having children has wayyyyy more to do with the constant doubt I place on my self about being a good mother since I seem to live in my head.
I am an intp female but I simply hate that men don't take anything seriously and lack awareness of whether saying something for the sake of joke might hurt someone I especially dislike over confident males... I have strong fe I guess but for sure I am an intp I've taken many tests to be sure and read cognitive function to type myself. I want mental stimulation in conversations and many men don't open up about deep topics rather I would say it's simply difficult to find good friends... But when I do find them it's mostly intuitive females.
I found this really interesting. As a guy, most of my friends are girls and they're the ones who I can open up to for deep, mentally stimulating discussions. Most of them are ISTPs and INTPs. My best friend is a guy, but most of my other good friends are girls. I have also thought the converse of your point of view before ("(wo)men don't take anything seriously and lack awareness of whether saying something for the sake of joke might hurt someone I especially dislike over confident males"). I suppose society makes us all cynical to an extent. There are always good people out there, but they never seem to disclose themselves to our detection. And maybe this reinforces confirmation bias to an extent. I also think that it's really better to say "some" to avoid generalization (instead of "women ...", "some women.."). There are always outliers and conditioning ourselves to be specific seems to characterize the INTP.
@@onionseggplant6595 Maybe I'm.. but I relate very strongly to all the problems that INTPs have and I don't relate to any other type as much as I do with INTP
@@zyno7738 Yes you are right I should have avoided generalization... and I also agree that I have confirmation bias...but I would still say in my experience I've found more women who are interested to go deeper into a topic rather than men. I've actually met few men 3 to be precise irl who were interested in getting deep into a topic rather than meaningless chatter and flirting.
I immediately started smiling. My husband of 6 years was surprised when I told him I don’t like receiving flowers. He was floored 😂 It was at that moment he realized I was a lot different than the women he’d been with in the past.
I am INTP female. When you grow a little more and start making some money you start enjoying shopping more - rofl - but not in the outgoing social way, more like collecting nice quality pieces. And if when you start researching about fashion and make-up - there are certainly more resources nowadays - you start taking an interest in them too. Working in an office and with a team can be challenging - but you can learn strategies for planning ahead and keeping things interesting - coaching helped me.
She said that INTP is one of the rarest. Trust me, INTP women would not want to get on the bad side of someone who is kind of like us but only a lot more decisive.
The title says “most rare” even if it was correct in the video. It’s the main reason I clicked, because I was like, “no we’re not” and there’s nothing that I like more than bashing my head against errors and inconsistencies on the internet instead of doing what I should have been doing instead. Perhaps you can tell I’m an INTP female.
I feel like even though I’m an INTP, life has beaten me down and my life experiences have smoothed the rough edges of my INTP personality. I am very fond of the way I break gender stereotypes. I also enjoy wearing dresses since they are one piece of clothing which is so efficient and the fact that it signals femininity to others also makes it easier to connect to others, which I also value since it is efficient. I also take care of my hair, since I don’t have time for others’ judgements if I did not. So I seem quite feminine, even though I mostly enjoy doing masculine activities, like fixing the house, using power tools, playing sports. I feel like the male gender took all the fun stuff and oppressed women by leaving us with all the chores like cleaning, cooking, shopping for food, clothing, supplies for the home, watching the children, etc. So, instead of using my time in those expected ways, I just do whatever feels right. I acknowledge that as a 5ft 2in tall woman, I have less physical ability than most, but I like to still challenge myself to do things small women are not expected to do, such as mowing the lawn, carrying heavy things. Basically, whatever I am personally interested in, I want to attempt to master, regardless if my body was made for it or not. I feel like that is the most important part of being an INTP, chaotically creating a new way of living for one’s self, disregarding the status quo, because it is logical to do so in order to become one’s true authentic self. Otherwise, we’d be more concerned with faking to the public, creating a perception and persona, acting like we are not this way, hiding that we enjoy the things that interest us. But we don’t have time to be dishonest, when we could better spend that time learning and experiencing. We are very alive, active and seeking as INTPs, especially in the realm of learning. We always want to learn. In my own case, as an INTP I’m rather self centered and self serving. I want what I want, and don’t see the harm in pursuing it. If I work hard for it, then I deserve it. So anyone telling me it’s the wrong way for a woman to live, or normal women don’t do that, just because MOST women aren’t that way, it just sounds like white noise to me. If I’m living the way I want, then it’s the right way for this normal woman to live.
So I am in 1% in the total world population. Feeling so unique for the first time. I am an Engineer, mathematic geek 26 years old and still single. Because I don't find anyone who can matches with my thinking, independence or philosophy.
I'm very girly( I don't enjoy the routine, I'm just acutely aware of how important looking good is) and I like expensive gifts, everything else is true.
Hi, I am ENFJ male and I always get attracted by INTP women. They’re so cool. Many of them are nerdy. I love deep talking with them but they dont usually read and reply msg. I dont care and still like them anyway.
As an INTP girl I feel attracted to INFJ a lot but if my man is ENFJ I can work with that too. Unless he wants me to attend parties and meeting big groups or invite a lot of people over which disturbs my peace
@@urbanplanninganddesign4651 i am an INFJ male and one interesting thing is, the first time i encountered an INTP women i was deeply fascinated by her but at the same time very frustrated, because i simply could not read her. We were so similar in a lot of points, but also very different in others, that she did not make any sense for my brain. Which only made her more fascinating, as this never really happened to me. As such i spent months thinking about this mystery... This was, how ever until i tried to reverse engineer her type, once i figured out that the only possibility is, that she must be an INTP everything started to become so obvious. Every answer, every action, even why she did not like to plan where we eat and reserve a seat but rather wanted to walk from restaurant to restaurant. 🙃
I've taken 3 MBTI tests, and 2 of them ended up having a result saying: I am an INTP, but these facts does NOT suit me. I'm actually the "household chore clean-freak" type of woman which contradicting the some point of this video. I wonder why?
Probably because this video is very specific and stereotypical, not many people will fit it perfectly. And a lot of these are the more immature traits so it’s actually better you don’t, as long as your cleanliness isn’t overboard. Like I’m generally okay with my emotions and am aware of other people’s generally, and actually really enjoy talking when it’s about interesting topics, but that doesn’t make me less of an INTP.
As an INTP myself I do agree with everything said in this video except the "lovey-dovey" point... I love that but I also agree with the other stuff that is said in that same point too.
As an INTP guy, I think this video was a bit too specific. Though its possible that it's stereotypically valid (not like that can be easily proven in the first place), I think it should've been better to be a bit more general. As an INTP I have always eventually droppped conversations with people who somehow aren't able to start any meaningful, deep conversations. But aside from my love for intellectual stimulation, I also really like fantasizing about "lovey-dovey" stuff. I've done the test many times with different platforms (thus different questions) and had the same strong result for INTP. Yes, I value independence and personal boundaries, that's a really good point the video made. That doesn't mean I'm useless at social interactions. My acquaintances have frequently guessed that I was an ENTP, but those who know me well know that I am an INTP. I think social ineptness is a bit too specific for this video. There's always a spectrum for that. I also care about my appearance to a significant degree. No, I don't use makeup, nor do I bother to have a skincare routine. But I shower everyday and am at the very least really self-conscious about looking good. I get really bothered by stray acne, and I make sure to scour every hook and cranny of my body with bodywash. I'm especially conscious about making sure my scalp is clean. I don't spend much time on my appearance but I actually care quite a bit. Perhaps the reason why I don't spend much time on my appearance is because I'm relatively comfortable with the way I look (but am still conscious about it). But I can't help but think that many INTP women would also find themselves relating to many, if not all the points made in the video (comments agree with me). My point is though, when making "---- men / ---- women videos, being vague or using conditional language such as "might, most likely, possibly" would ensure that nobody would watch it and feel greatly contradicted.
I just said the same thing in response to someone else's comment on this video about the dangers of stating outcomes as factual as opposed to general traits . The traits could express themselves in different ways but there's no one specific way each outcome will present. I have a strong need for order and routine and part of that is in my appearance. I also cannot relax if everything is not in its place in my home. It's almost like those hypotheticals we used to discuss in high school... All polar bears are white, but white isn't the color of all bears.
I'm here to learn more about my mbti when I thought I have always been an extrovert my whole life! Currently in denial and shocked coz dayum we're also rare 😭🤣 I took the personality test twice with more than 6 months interval and it's still the same. Heeeyyy INTP here 😭✨
1) + 2) + 3) not married, but I struggle with cooking and keeping order in my apartment and desk, so I'd agree 4) + so true, I was called arrogant so many times 5) - 6) more true than not 7) well, 29 and not married, when I was in relationships, I could never imagine being married to my bfs
As an INTP female I did worry that I wouldn’t be a good mother (I was never interested in kids and as a teenager and I wasn’t a very good babysitter) but after having kids of my own I found it pretty easy to fall in love and be devoted to them. I felt an overwhelming bond with from the moment that they were born and that love and my concern for them actually caused me to become fascinated with learning about child development. Meeting their emotional and intellectual needs quickly became my highest priority. What I discovered is that while I may not be a stereotypical female, I definitely do have strong maternal instincts and that allowed me to be a good mom.
"I am an INTP but I don't do this or this trait listed!" Yes. Of course. I don't understand how this is so complicated. There are only 16 buckets in the Myers-Briggs personality tests - do you think all of these common traits will fit with every person who gets the INTP personality type? Also, it's based on your own responses, so the types really reflect how YOU perceive yourself, and may not be accurate. It's a fun, silly thing, not something to take so seriously. It's like astrology, with a little more reason behind it, since it's based on more than just when you were born.
Right, which is why you shouldn't make such a definitive list of the outcomes of the various ways these traits express themselves. The commentors here are adding insight into the dangers of sweeping with such a broad brush and it's an important piece of the conversation to gain understanding into various ways in which these traits might present. It's like saying "X types of people are more inclined to consume more sugar" then making a video about how "X people absolutely LOVE M&Ms and can't get enough of them. Matter of fact, they mostly only eat M&Ms. You'll find them hiding in a closet on many occasions jamming handfuls of M&Ms into their mouths" when really, those who are more likely to struggle with sugar could hate M&Ms. That's why it's better to focus on the overall trait and not state outcomes so factually.
This video sums me up pretty accurately. I don't understand all the fuss in the comments from women that are INTP. Perhaps they're not actually INTP but think they are. Or they've been influenced by societal norms.
Reasons why the thing about doing girly stuff might not really apply as simply as this video suggests... 1 INTPs are very creative people. Grooming/make-up/clothes can be a form of creative expression. Even though it's not our primary function, having aesthetically outward creative outlets is very healthy for us. Also - 2 aesthetics by itself can be another complex puzzle to be unraveled, experimenting with clothes/makeup could end up being the result of our latest cerebral interest. 3 Another reason why an intp woman would look after her appearance is that we want to keep our 'outer world' as simple as possible because we have so much going on in our inner world. We are social chameleons and learn to adapt. Maybe it's a bit like high functioning autism, we are smart and over time we learn to adapt to social conventions. We learn to hide our inner world as it can intimidate or just annoy others. As we get older we refine these social chameleon skills.
Soy intp super confirmada y soy diseñadora de moda también soy manicurista y especialista en pestañas y cejas, soy extremadamente femenina al punto de que no compro nada que no sea rosa 💗💅🌸 todo esto no significa que no ame análisar todo en cada momento !!!!
As an INTP I'm not necessarily boyish. It's not like don't like being feminine, I can do girl talk too! AND.. I find dresses comfortable and breathable than pants. Just that sometimes it's a bother to be fashionable
im an INTP and I feel like all these weirds traits your talking about are actually the things I would enjoy in a girl, never liked too girly girls lol i like nerds
I am an INTP who actually loves to take care of herself but for different reasons than other females. Also I can do whatever practical task as long as I have an access to internet to look up how to do it.
The only way for me to be interested in fashion was through music (punk, Vivienne Westwood) and binge studying colour theory and David Kibbe's body theory. I got to like keeping my home tidy only after the pandemic and binge watching a lot of Mari Kondo declutter and home design videos. If I ever become a mother, I will probable make sure to gather as much information as possible to be able to perform the best I can.
Am i the only INTP who doesn't match the video? Or am i not an INTP at all🙂 I did the test SOO many times and watched A LOT of videos that i can relate to that's why I'm sure I'm an INTP but in the same time as an INTP i I'm not sure so what..? 🙂
Had to Laugh 🤣🤣🤣 at the Reference to Housework!!! I'm Probably Unique in That I Love Puttering Around The House... ...Putting Things in Order. But 3Weeks Later I want Something but No Clue Where I "Ordered" it... So, I Tear Things Apart... Find a Suitable Replacement... And Move on To the Next Project... Until A few days pass & I see the chaos that drives me crazy so I Put things Back in Order. A Week Later I'm "Re-Organizing and Find the Thing I wanted In the First Place...So, The Project then is the first Project from 2Weeks Ago!!! But ohhh I had Sooo Much Fun in The Process Because "Ordering" Things is My Coordinator/Curator Aspect of My Unique INTP Personality. Overall... I Live In the Juxtaposed Mix of Chaotic/Order.. Constantly Editing Everything to Avoid Boredom of any kind. Did I Mention my ADHD??? 🤪 Attention Divergent/Diverse Hyperactive Discernment/Decisiveness
Video: INTP females aren’t focused on looks Same video: shows conventionally attractive women with pro hairstyles and makeup I don’t mind beauty treatments, it’s just so hilarious
I’ve taken the test many many times and alwys have the results as INTP. I’m very girly, and I do make up and hair. I excel in everything I try including cooking.
Some is accurate I would say one's experience also shapes some decisions we make. I do wash my face and do skincare because I do care about how I look for myself but not to impress others. Which can be a different reason why most woman put on make up and look beautiful. I definitely connected better with men than with women. I think besides the bad hygiene and aversion to be parents I think quite a number of things are accurate. We do have fears but it wouldn't stop us if we deemed it was something we needed to do.
as an Intp i enjoyed doing 7 steps of skincare, cooking andfresh baked pastries as well as fashion, just want to dress the best for me not to others because i like me the best 😝😝😝
As an INTP woman, i don't know what delusional crap you were talking about with the "we don't care about our looks as much as other women". Of course we do! We are not some sort of alien species, we are still women put under the societal pressures of being pretty, whether we like it or not. Looking pretty might not be our top prioritiy due the constant "chaos" going around in our head, but we still try to make an effort to look good when we get the chance (I can't say this for all INTP women but i think the majority would agree).
So many people commenting who either aren't INTP, or need to look at these traits a little deeper. Ok, so you love fashion and makeup, but the video says something else. Ask yourself why you love those things. Are you enjoying them on a deeper level than just, "Oh that's a cute skirt," or "I have to put this stuff on my face to appear prettier than other girls?" I think the thing about INTPs is that they look at things with logic and reason and find a deeper meaning in them.
as an INTP am to busy cultivating the lense of awareness, to study the inner consiousness, to even think about how i look, i shower am clean. am on top of practicle things. the development of the Koshas, is top priority. As for Family, well ive done it but cant say that nesting and reproductive process is the highlight of the life expirience, more of a bio;ogical function,
As an INTP female, most of things are true. Especially that I can’t keep a chick as a friend per they come with too much drama and clingy-ness. I have always had guy friends, however that doesn’t work out for obvious reasons. It also doesn’t help that I have a very dark sense of humor.

bruh why are they making us out to be "not like other girls" 😭
RIGHT😒 And also as know it alls
joe biden screaming no
That's literally my name 😭🤣😭🤣😭
Well you aren't but, look for most signs as every INTP woman is different. That's what you need to understand. Some INTPs can get into good makeup habits. Some can't. It is all personal preference.
@Nechrotica same tho
No INTP female would ever agree with this video. I think they have researched mbti enough to understand that hobbies, interests and hygiene have barely anything to do with your functions. We do have superiority complex but it's about our competency and not our taste. Infact most intp have a varied range of interests and are open to learn and discuss most things.
I am an INTP female and it was pretty accurate for me. I just depends on how much you are on the introvert spectrum (%). Because each of us are more or less introvert and the rest of our chart differs too. I’m 86% introvert. You’re probably closer to the extrovert side. So, don’t be a disappointing , judgmental INTP and dig deeper on the subject
Oh im intp female and the whole video is sadly very accurate more than anything I have read about intp females!
@@lamia7970 tell her bestie!
No that's exactly me🙂
Một sự thật đáng buồn là video đó nói hoàn toàn đúng về tôi. Một intp nữ.
"The most rare personality type." This is so wrong for so many reasons. Also, I am actually very interested about my physique. I may not be so worried about doing makeup or nails, but I'm very well kept and would also like to physically look like the best version of myself I see in my head, so there is that! I like when people look at me for the seek of me being both intelligent AND pretty.
It's possible to have traits from other personality types here and there in one's life. Knowing these personality traits helps me understand different types of people see things differently. Let's say if I were to have a partner or child who is an INTP, I now know that they may have a higher tolerance when it comes to a messy room, which is different from being lazy.
They said one of the rarest lol
Myers-Briggs isn’t cut and dry and doesn’t account for the nuances in personality. If anything, it creates a base point of personality traits which gets expanded upon by nuance.
@@ravenm6443 And that's exactly why this video is wrong. They used MBTI to form a box of how you should act in life instead of how you process information and go about problems.
@@llgla It's possible that those traits are simply one of the multiple traits of the INTP personality type and not estranged to INTPs, as INTPs possess 4 functions just like all the other types do. Gatekeeping is not vey MBTI! INTPs don't have a "higher tolerance" to messy room; this is the wrong way to see it. What INTPs have is a lack of being grounded into reality to see the messy room in the first place and therefore if you can't see the messy room, it's simply nonexistent which makes having any form of emotion towards the messy room impossible; including having a high or low tolerance for that messy room.
As an INTP mother of two girls, I do believe we can make good parents, but that we choose to have kids at a much later date when we know we are mentally and emotionally ready
I've got two kids that I did an amazing job on, despite what people expected, but I had them both young. I'm 44 with a 22 year old son, and a 26 year old daughter. If I'd not had them young, I wouldn't think I'd have managed to get it together, at all. I was completely devoted to my kids, and still am. I may be unusual, but then I'm INTP - T
The unfortunate thing is fertility doesn't wait for any woman. Past 35 is a geriatric pregnancy. At that point there is no guarantee a woman can get pregnant. INTP women need to take this into consideration.
@@artslife3876 Women having children young with a husband and support system is the best situation and I'm glad you had the wherewithal to make it work as a young woman. While I think she is a good mom my sister had a child late and she struggles with the energy required. She's also a single mom which exacerbates things. She gets stressed out constantly while also worrying about her daughter.
@@mrod8578 I wasn't married, and to be honest, after playing witness to a huge amount of marriages my friends had over the years, I definitely don't feel like I got the rough end of the stick.
@@artslife3876 I wasn't suggesting that you were but simply stating that is generally the ideal scenario. Male/female relationships in the west are generally fractured and broken so I'm not surprised. I was simply commending you for having children young. I'm also glad you didn't get the raw end of the deal compared to your friends (western marriage is generally a 💩 show today). If you raised 2 capable human beings that can function in society chances are you did a good job. Mothers are generally the first teachers of culture and society to children which is an important role.
I am an INTP female who
- Wants to look pretty (but I would be focused on so many other things that I would forget about tidying up; I literally want to look like an anime girl gosh dang it)
- I do struggle being organized and keeping my family house clean (but that doesn't mean I am careless)
- We're definitely NOT useless in social relations (I get along well with those that have similar mindsets to mine, and I intend to work professionally well with others in work environments, nonetheless, I prefer to spend time alone and only communicate with others when it's necessary. )
- It's true that lovey-dovey stuff doesn't get to me, but I do appreciate it if it's from genuine affection ( However, I feel most loved when I am understood and when someone likes to engage in the same interests as mine; overall if we plan a future together and reach goals together)
- I don't think much about starting a family but when it's mentioned, it bumps me out (but I try not to talk fast because who knows when I might have one, but for now I just don't want any of that; besides i already have a hard time time talking with people, especially with boys in a deeper level)
So everything that is said is not completely 100% incorrect, but no doubt there are things that I don't seem to relate strongly
It feels like you just called me out
I have to say that I agree with and relate to the bullet points in this video
I am OK with cleaning as long as it’s not forced ofc. But I actually love organizing like you can give me a hundred color pencils and I organize them in the order of the rainbow, and I can agree with most of what you said.
As an INTP women myself , I don't agree with all of these personality traits . Most of my best friends are females and I do care about my looks but the other stuff about bashing gender stereotypes , independence and fear of having kids is pretty relatable.
I am an intp but I enjoy doing shopping, being pretty some time even if it's tiring and cooking so don't just put us in boxes
yes omg
Yes, me too!
As an analytical person, it goes without saying that it is not the action itself, but how it is and what. And why is it done.
That's essentially the entire point of a personality type. You are LITERALLY being boxed into 1 of 16 boxes. It's unlikely that every trait will match perfectly, because people are individual, so 16 categories can't possibly fit them all.
true! I like cooking too especially sweet things 😆
INTP woman here -- a lot of this I don't relate to. I personally love fashion, make up, getting dressed up. Skin care routines are pretty important to me but yes the routine aspect of that can get old. I do relate to the parts about homemaking and having kids.
It's ok.. this video is not about what you should be.. it just a guide to know Intp female better.. but that not meant you have to be like this.. everyone have there different interest .. like I really wanna be more healthy and strong so I workout everyday.. it's important to me while people think I am lazy.. most of time yeas I am lazy..but it's not true when it come to my hobbies or passion
"i'M nOt LiKe OtHeR GiRLs!!" I hate this stereotype that INTP women are above "normal women" who only care about shallow things like appearances and celebrity gossip and whose sole purpose in life is to become housewife aka maid. Because INTP women are intelligent and like to think about meaningful things and therefore they're not like most women at all - they're like men, who are the voice of logic and reason. This mindset is sexist or when coming from women it's internalized misogyny.
Listen, I'm an INTP woman. I use a lot of time for my beauty routine, I love nail art and cute cupcakes and I've always related to other women just fine. I also enjoy science, linguistics, history, writing and many other things. None of my female friends are INTP and they are all very intelligent and knowledgeable - like a lot of women are.
I'm sure there are a lot of INTP women who relate to the points in the video: women who don't care about those "silly female things" society tries to condition women to like. Because guess what, there are a lot of women in all personality types who don't care for appearances, celebrities or whatnot, and yes, some have a hard time relating to others.
Most women are intelligent, complex, worthy beings just like men - not some ditzy bimbos.
So true. As an INTP I can't stand how this video basically says "I'm better than other women because I'm more like men". Being the thinking-intuitive type doesn't mean we neglect feelings or senses. And even if I do sometimes, that's probably not something I'd brag about.
@@totally3totally Thank you. It was annoying and nothing INTP about it! Also, women in general are NOTHING portrayed as how women should be, but this video here makes it seem like only the INTP women are like that. Giving pick me energy
Finally someone pointed it out!!
Saying that we have a hard time dealing with everyday’s chores and basic hygiene rules, doesn’t mean we feel superior. We’re different yes, but we have our flaws and this video never said we felt superior. Listen carefully
@@SuperMissRain You're the one who should be clever than that and realize it's beyond just not that. This video makes it look like that putting makeup on and etc would make you less intellectual and therefore connect masculinity to intellectuality.
In MBTI, there's such a thing as being an "unhealthy" or "healthy" type. Being unhealthy generally means that we don't express our cognitive functions appropriately, especially our tertiary and inferior functions. We may neglect them.
What you are describing for the most part here, is an unhealthy INTP.
Meaning, either an immature INTP (nothing to do with age but more like emotional development for ex) who hasn't started the process of developing their tertiary and inferior functions to their better potential.
Or an INTP who is confronted to an environment, mental or external, not conducive for such potential expansion and who adopts suboptimal coping mechanisms.
Women who relate 100% to the video, especially to what is considered in our society the less flattering parts (for ex independence bordering on isolation, no interest in outwards appearance, not being housewife material... ) : be attentive to all your functions and look for a way to develop their potential, you'll see a difference without being another self.
It'll be your self but optimised 😁. Yes, we can be super interested and focused on the why's of how's of the universe AND have a clean & neat study room 😄😄. That's our power !
This is pretty much what I was thinking. To me, the video describes INTP women who haven't worked on developing their weaker functions. I actually felt somewhat insulted by how black & white the video was describing us.
I don’t care about what people perceive of my looks but I still like looking decent. I don’t walk outside smelling like trash. I enjoy looking cute and trying new looks.
Everything is true here for the most part, however in terms of family, I think it’s a little harsh. I think we are so into what we are doing it seems scary to have a family. My first (unplanned) pregnancy ended in miscarriage and it was absolutely devastating. We were able to go on and have a second pregnancy to term and I couldn’t imagine my life without my son. I get to teach him all the things I didn’t know and give him all the hugs I never had. We have a pretty special bond.
-the 40 yr old INTP
I agree. I believe a INTP women would be a kick ass mom
I'm an INTP female myself. While I could rarely love, tolerate or relate to any of the small talk or other stereotypes and girl group conversations (edit: only when it's toxic and I hope I would find my tribe in the future but I'll not wait for it to have fun ) , I care about my looks because I know how the world works, moreover, I love looking pretty. I also love and embrace my femininity because I love who I am, the female in me.
Also, I'd love to express that I'm just like any other girl but unique like every other human beings.. special like everyone else.
I love organising things because I know the value of it, and what it does to me ( I grew up in a chaotic environment, and learned to keep my room, my shrine.) it makes me feel collected. I've never fit in anywhere, I tried and it's a waste of my time and energy, it's not me being me when I'm trying so hard to accomodate people who doesn't deserve it.
I don't plan on having a baby, because there are enough human beings in earth, in my country, it's increasing, plus it's not my priority. I have to take good care of myself and a baby may get in the way. This doesn't mean that I hate children, I really don't mind them. I love deep things and over analysis. I'm in my head a lot. I fucking love my alone time. I can't tolerate a lot of people and people may not tolerate me. I tried and failed, i really don't plan on wasting my time on that any more. To be honest, I really don't like people, but I don't hate them. I know there are good people. I've met them.
Here in my country, it's hard to find another girl or person who can relate to you, (my INFJ sister is someone who could, and that's enough) and to be honest, a lot of them (not all of them) are goddam shallow. It's true, after trying to accomodate a lot, you'll come to that conclusion in the end. I can pretty much live peacefully in my own company, I've realised that I'm at my best like that, that's good and healthy for me. Also, nobody may know me better than I do. I know myself too much, and it's never too much for me.
I'm not that bad at social skills. I'll call them tools, because I was forced to develop and hone it due to the pressure around me (most around me where "social" people) , it didn't come naturally to me. Not really. But I don't really like using them so much, because I don't see any point in indulging in things I don't really like.
I'm smart and I know it. I've had my share of self doubts but ultimately, after all the experiments and results, I've decided to come to a conclusion that I am. Sure, I could be dumb at times (because I'm human) but I'm hella sure. I do respect and love other people. But I've come to hate (can't help it) the shallowness in most things. So I'm just gonna continue doing ma thing.
I'm not perfect. Nobody is. But I'm not bad. I'm always the better version of myself. Everytime I stumble, i learn a new lesson. I hope many intp females embrace who they are and realise who they are. People can be hard (especially if you're living in a society like mine) but trust yourself and trust others when you need it. Learn when you realise that maybe it's good for your mental health to take better measures when you meet people whom you can't handle.
You can't avoid people, but you can ignore them. (Because gotta give everyone what they deserve, good or bad.)
Edit: I've gotten better. I've learned to be kinder, forgiving, giving and above everything else, care less... about so many things that are simply not worth your time and energy.
life sucks, but let's have fun..
Well said. Nothing more to add.
I find it hard to understand myself before i realised My personality type.
We do want to have friends but it's better to be alone thing.
when u said about socialising I agree with you bcoz we have to communicate atleast when none is like you.
That makes others hard to believe we are INTPs!
I am glad to know myself more then ever.
growing up in a family where i tried to be flexible but at a point i couldn't be more ...so I just accept myself that We are humans too , we ain't born perfect to fit in every single point of the society.
I pretty much enjoy breaking rules when it doesn't makes sense for me any longer .
I felt like i grew up with wrong pack!

My question is, what can people like us do to make an excellent income when the world is based on people and relationahips. I have to do my resume again and its all people people rah rah. Hate it. Evefy job i have i basically get fired from eventually. I do an outstanding job, but people dont get me and eventually some group bands together and gossips and creates drama and i get ousted as the problem. But ive made so much money for people, ive streamlined stuff, ive helped people with their careers, endless stuff, but I get nowhere and have to start again every damn time. Put on a fake smile, go for another interview, pretend im upbeat and driven and all that. I speak up when i see idiots making stupid business decisions, bcse i can usually see a better way of doing it, but i get told that im not a team player or good listener. But i also hate conflict so im no good in a verbal work sce ario where its he said she said and i again come off the loser even though i was right and juat and full of integrity. Does anyone have any toola foe dealing with this. Im always the odd one out.
Personal hygiene has nothing to do with your personality type though. I love being and looking clean, I love dressing up and smelling good but I do it for myself and sadly many women fail to do this shit for themselves.
Also about the flowers; I love love love receiving flowers especially potted once! Well thought gifts generally get my heart beating. There's nothing more special than someone genuinely putting thought in what they gift you.
My very good friend is a ENFP woman and she hates receiving flowers because she sees no point in them! Stop giving INTP women the "i'm not like other girls" stereotype because there is nothing better than finally connecting with someone on a romantic level. On any level at all
I've always identified more with the men in my life. My sister says it's internalized misogyny, but i don't think it's true. I just suppress my emotions in a toxicly masculine way lol
I am an INTP woman and I'm a very loving mother of 4. However, it is true I have male friends as apposed to female friends and it is because I find most woman to be "catie" and superficial. Which runs into an additional problem is that most men will be friends because they feel that my friendship with them is based on an unspoken attraction which shows up as the friendship progresses. Makes this difficult for me to form friendships. I like looking nice everyday and wear make up. I am not fond of housework as most people are not. I am not into love songs, flowers and chocolate. I do like beautiful surroundings and will make my home, especially my bedroom, a beautiful, comfortable place to relax in. As for myself this look into the INTP personality was close to half right.
I'm an INTP woman, and this is soooo accurate, except for the part with the family. I have 8 children thank God, and I think I'm an amazing mom, very different from the usual type, and very disorganized... but I give my children benefits and mental and emotional health that the usual type struggles to achieve.
we generally have good time together, and basically, I created 8 more people in this world I can relate to, have good discussions, or just get lazy around. 🤣
girl u need to retest
@@user-dj7hg4yt5v What makes you think that?
It's weird
Its not saying intp women cant become good mothers. We can more so doubt to become mothers due to logical thinking. Doesn't mean you can't get over those doubts and still have an amazing and beautiful family. I feel this video doesnt do the best job of describing the intp personality. It comes off very one sided when there is actually 2 different versions of the intp personality. A and T which is for assertive and turbulent.
The struggle is real. I often forget to look in the mirror before i leave my house. And i only clean my apartment once a week. Women don't like me and I am overjoyed with deep intellectual conversation.
I think I'm quite girly I'm just a little philosophical, theoretical, and systematic thinking. I love cooking, cleaning, fashion, design, hair( I'm often complemented on it) and love beauty as I am an artist. I may be more emotionally connected that other intps idk but I can fully say I've studied mbti, cognitive function, and am am total intp I'm so sick of these stereotypes because when I first got typed all of this stuff made me feel less than and horribly even though none of it is true.
Infp man and same here
My fear of having children has wayyyyy more to do with the constant doubt I place on my self about being a good mother since I seem to live in my head.
This video describes INTP women who haven't worked on developing herself. I was like this till 23
I am an intp female but I simply hate that men don't take anything seriously and lack awareness of whether saying something for the sake of joke might hurt someone I especially dislike over confident males... I have strong fe I guess but for sure I am an intp I've taken many tests to be sure and read cognitive function to type myself. I want mental stimulation in conversations and many men don't open up about deep topics rather I would say it's simply difficult to find good friends... But when I do find them it's mostly intuitive females.
feels
I found this really interesting. As a guy, most of my friends are girls and they're the ones who I can open up to for deep, mentally stimulating discussions. Most of them are ISTPs and INTPs. My best friend is a guy, but most of my other good friends are girls. I have also thought the converse of your point of view before ("(wo)men don't take anything seriously and lack awareness of whether saying something for the sake of joke might hurt someone I especially dislike over confident males"). I suppose society makes us all cynical to an extent. There are always good people out there, but they never seem to disclose themselves to our detection. And maybe this reinforces confirmation bias to an extent. I also think that it's really better to say "some" to avoid generalization (instead of "women ...", "some women.."). There are always outliers and conditioning ourselves to be specific seems to characterize the INTP.
You sound like another type
@@onionseggplant6595 Maybe I'm.. but I relate very strongly to all the problems that INTPs have and I don't relate to any other type as much as I do with INTP
@@zyno7738 Yes you are right I should have avoided generalization... and I also agree that I have confirmation bias...but I would still say in my experience I've found more women who are interested to go deeper into a topic rather than men. I've actually met few men 3 to be precise irl who were interested in getting deep into a topic rather than meaningless chatter and flirting.
I immediately started smiling. My husband of 6 years was surprised when I told him I don’t like receiving flowers. He was floored 😂 It was at that moment he realized I was a lot different than the women he’d been with in the past.
Where my intp women at?
I am INTP female. When you grow a little more and start making some money you start enjoying shopping more - rofl - but not in the outgoing social way, more like collecting nice quality pieces. And if when you start researching about fashion and make-up - there are certainly more resources nowadays - you start taking an interest in them too. Working in an office and with a team can be challenging - but you can learn strategies for planning ahead and keeping things interesting - coaching helped me.
"INTP Female - the rarest personality type"
INTJ Females: Am I a joke to you?
entj female: am I a joke to both of you?
She said that INTP is one of the rarest. Trust me, INTP women would not want to get on the bad side of someone who is kind of like us but only a lot more decisive.
INFJ Female: what the actual f*#%
The title says “most rare” even if it was correct in the video. It’s the main reason I clicked, because I was like, “no we’re not” and there’s nothing that I like more than bashing my head against errors and inconsistencies on the internet instead of doing what I should have been doing instead. Perhaps you can tell I’m an INTP female.
I feel like even though I’m an INTP, life has beaten me down and my life experiences have smoothed the rough edges of my INTP personality. I am very fond of the way I break gender stereotypes. I also enjoy wearing dresses since they are one piece of clothing which is so efficient and the fact that it signals femininity to others also makes it easier to connect to others, which I also value since it is efficient. I also take care of my hair, since I don’t have time for others’ judgements if I did not. So I seem quite feminine, even though I mostly enjoy doing masculine activities, like fixing the house, using power tools, playing sports. I feel like the male gender took all the fun stuff and oppressed women by leaving us with all the chores like cleaning, cooking, shopping for food, clothing, supplies for the home, watching the children, etc. So, instead of using my time in those expected ways, I just do whatever feels right.
I acknowledge that as a 5ft 2in tall woman, I have less physical ability than most, but I like to still challenge myself to do things small women are not expected to do, such as mowing the lawn, carrying heavy things. Basically, whatever I am personally interested in, I want to attempt to master, regardless if my body was made for it or not. I feel like that is the most important part of being an INTP, chaotically creating a new way of living for one’s self, disregarding the status quo, because it is logical to do so in order to become one’s true authentic self. Otherwise, we’d be more concerned with faking to the public, creating a perception and persona, acting like we are not this way, hiding that we enjoy the things that interest us. But we don’t have time to be dishonest, when we could better spend that time learning and experiencing. We are very alive, active and seeking as INTPs, especially in the realm of learning. We always want to learn.
In my own case, as an INTP I’m rather self centered and self serving. I want what I want, and don’t see the harm in pursuing it. If I work hard for it, then I deserve it. So anyone telling me it’s the wrong way for a woman to live, or normal women don’t do that, just because MOST women aren’t that way, it just sounds like white noise to me. If I’m living the way I want, then it’s the right way for this normal woman to live.
So I am in 1% in the total world population. Feeling so unique for the first time. I am an Engineer, mathematic geek 26 years old and still single. Because I don't find anyone who can matches with my thinking, independence or philosophy.
Aww single at 26 is perfectly normal, not everyone wants to pair up in their 20's
I'm very girly( I don't enjoy the routine, I'm just acutely aware of how important looking good is) and I like expensive gifts, everything else is true.
sheise
I'm INTP and am still a "good wife" who does all the house work just because it's way better than having small talks in an office 🤣
Wow. This really nails it right on the head.
Hi, I am ENFJ male and I always get attracted by INTP women. They’re so cool. Many of them are nerdy. I love deep talking with them but they dont usually read and reply msg. I dont care and still like them anyway.
As an INTP girl I feel attracted to INFJ a lot but if my man is ENFJ I can work with that too. Unless he wants me to attend parties and meeting big groups or invite a lot of people over which disturbs my peace
@@urbanplanninganddesign4651 i am an INFJ male and one interesting thing is, the first time i encountered an INTP women i was deeply fascinated by her but at the same time very frustrated, because i simply could not read her. We were so similar in a lot of points, but also very different in others, that she did not make any sense for my brain. Which only made her more fascinating, as this never really happened to me. As such i spent months thinking about this mystery...
This was, how ever until i tried to reverse engineer her type, once i figured out that the only possibility is, that she must be an INTP everything started to become so obvious. Every answer, every action, even why she did not like to plan where we eat and reserve a seat but rather wanted to walk from restaurant to restaurant. 🙃
I've taken 3 MBTI tests, and 2 of them ended up having a result saying: I am an INTP, but these facts does NOT suit me. I'm actually the "household chore clean-freak" type of woman which contradicting the some point of this video.
I wonder why?
Probably because this video is very specific and stereotypical, not many people will fit it perfectly. And a lot of these are the more immature traits so it’s actually better you don’t, as long as your cleanliness isn’t overboard.
Like I’m generally okay with my emotions and am aware of other people’s generally, and actually really enjoy talking when it’s about interesting topics, but that doesn’t make me less of an INTP.
3:42 I doesn't stand for intuition.. n for intuition and I got introversion
As an INTP myself I do agree with everything said in this video except the "lovey-dovey" point... I love that but I also agree with the other stuff that is said in that same point too.
I'm an INTP woman and my hygiene is impeccable. I just can't keep my house clean.
this is so funny! I like how they refer to us as ‘endangered species’ who are ‘quirky’ and ‘a rare specimen’
I’m an INTP female and I thoroughly agree with this video. It is accurate despite opposing views in the comments.
as an intp female i care abt my looks. sometimes
I don't see this video getting much traction - 3% of the female pop may possibly stop by for some confirmation. LoL
I am an Intp female from india
I'm also intp t female from India (Gujarat)
Me too from West Bengal
Intp from punjab
As an INTP guy, I think this video was a bit too specific. Though its possible that it's stereotypically valid (not like that can be easily proven in the first place), I think it should've been better to be a bit more general. As an INTP I have always eventually droppped conversations with people who somehow aren't able to start any meaningful, deep conversations. But aside from my love for intellectual stimulation, I also really like fantasizing about "lovey-dovey" stuff. I've done the test many times with different platforms (thus different questions) and had the same strong result for INTP. Yes, I value independence and personal boundaries, that's a really good point the video made. That doesn't mean I'm useless at social interactions. My acquaintances have frequently guessed that I was an ENTP, but those who know me well know that I am an INTP. I think social ineptness is a bit too specific for this video. There's always a spectrum for that. I also care about my appearance to a significant degree. No, I don't use makeup, nor do I bother to have a skincare routine. But I shower everyday and am at the very least really self-conscious about looking good. I get really bothered by stray acne, and I make sure to scour every hook and cranny of my body with bodywash. I'm especially conscious about making sure my scalp is clean. I don't spend much time on my appearance but I actually care quite a bit. Perhaps the reason why I don't spend much time on my appearance is because I'm relatively comfortable with the way I look (but am still conscious about it). But I can't help but think that many INTP women would also find themselves relating to many, if not all the points made in the video (comments agree with me). My point is though, when making "---- men / ---- women videos, being vague or using conditional language such as "might, most likely, possibly" would ensure that nobody would watch it and feel greatly contradicted.
I just said the same thing in response to someone else's comment on this video about the dangers of stating outcomes as factual as opposed to general traits . The traits could express themselves in different ways but there's no one specific way each outcome will present.
I have a strong need for order and routine and part of that is in my appearance. I also cannot relax if everything is not in its place in my home.
It's almost like those hypotheticals we used to discuss in high school... All polar bears are white, but white isn't the color of all bears.
I'm here to learn more about my mbti when I thought I have always been an extrovert my whole life! Currently in denial and shocked coz dayum we're also rare 😭🤣
I took the personality test twice with more than 6 months interval and it's still the same. Heeeyyy INTP here 😭✨
This was eerily accurate
I am an endangered species.
That's the comment!
1) +
2) +
3) not married, but I struggle with cooking and keeping order in my apartment and desk, so I'd agree
4) + so true, I was called arrogant so many times
5) -
6) more true than not
7) well, 29 and not married, when I was in relationships, I could never imagine being married to my bfs
As an INTP female I did worry that I wouldn’t be a good mother (I was never interested in kids and as a teenager and I wasn’t a very good babysitter) but after having kids of my own I found it pretty easy to fall in love and be devoted to them. I felt an overwhelming bond with from the moment that they were born and that love and my concern for them actually caused me to become fascinated with learning about child development. Meeting their emotional and intellectual needs quickly became my highest priority. What I discovered is that while I may not be a stereotypical female, I definitely do have strong maternal instincts and that allowed me to be a good mom.
I really resonate with all these.
"I am an INTP but I don't do this or this trait listed!" Yes. Of course. I don't understand how this is so complicated. There are only 16 buckets in the Myers-Briggs personality tests - do you think all of these common traits will fit with every person who gets the INTP personality type? Also, it's based on your own responses, so the types really reflect how YOU perceive yourself, and may not be accurate. It's a fun, silly thing, not something to take so seriously. It's like astrology, with a little more reason behind it, since it's based on more than just when you were born.
100% These comments are baffling to me. They want every part of the video to fit them perfectly.
Right? The MBTI is a pseudoscience. But it's fun, so who cares?
Plus, they act like they're somewhat superior for not being what the video describes.
Right, which is why you shouldn't make such a definitive list of the outcomes of the various ways these traits express themselves. The commentors here are adding insight into the dangers of sweeping with such a broad brush and it's an important piece of the conversation to gain understanding into various ways in which these traits might present.
It's like saying "X types of people are more inclined to consume more sugar" then making a video about how "X people absolutely LOVE M&Ms and can't get enough of them. Matter of fact, they mostly only eat M&Ms. You'll find them hiding in a closet on many occasions jamming handfuls of M&Ms into their mouths" when really, those who are more likely to struggle with sugar could hate M&Ms. That's why it's better to focus on the overall trait and not state outcomes so factually.
My life makes so much more sense now
nah cap, i love dressing up and wearing pretty clothes.. it is an artform to create good outfits
This video sums me up pretty accurately. I don't understand all the fuss in the comments from women that are INTP. Perhaps they're not actually INTP but think they are. Or they've been influenced by societal norms.
This channel is awesome
You have quite exposed me.
This is me!
The top priority is find the best way to be yourself, not trying hard to fit in the social expectations.
Reasons why the thing about doing girly stuff might not really apply as simply as this video suggests... 1 INTPs are very creative people. Grooming/make-up/clothes can be a form of creative expression. Even though it's not our primary function, having aesthetically outward creative outlets is very healthy for us. Also - 2 aesthetics by itself can be another complex puzzle to be unraveled, experimenting with clothes/makeup could end up being the result of our latest cerebral interest. 3 Another reason why an intp woman would look after her appearance is that we want to keep our 'outer world' as simple as possible because we have so much going on in our inner world. We are social chameleons and learn to adapt. Maybe it's a bit like high functioning autism, we are smart and over time we learn to adapt to social conventions. We learn to hide our inner world as it can intimidate or just annoy others. As we get older we refine these social chameleon skills.
why are people offended. edit: is it like "im not 'not like other girls' like other girls?"
US INTP women need to form our own group. We can talk about meaningful things and try to go to a manicure salon…
Great I’m the “not like other girls” trope 🥴
Soy intp super confirmada y soy diseñadora de moda también soy manicurista y especialista en pestañas y cejas, soy extremadamente femenina al punto de que no compro nada que no sea rosa 💗💅🌸 todo esto no significa que no ame análisar todo en cada momento !!!!
This is extremly accurate
As an INTP I'm not necessarily boyish. It's not like don't like being feminine, I can do girl talk too! AND.. I find dresses comfortable and breathable than pants. Just that sometimes it's a bother to be fashionable
As an intp girl, I'm not faking my personality i just agree to these points
im an INTP and I feel like all these weirds traits your talking about are actually the things I would enjoy in a girl, never liked too girly girls lol i like nerds
As an INTP female, I find this to be accurate.
This describes me so closely, it’s scary.
I am an INTP who actually loves to take care of herself but for different reasons than other females. Also I can do whatever practical task as long as I have an access to internet to look up how to do it.
The only way for me to be interested in fashion was through music (punk, Vivienne Westwood) and binge studying colour theory and David Kibbe's body theory. I got to like keeping my home tidy only after the pandemic and binge watching a lot of Mari Kondo declutter and home design videos. If I ever become a mother, I will probable make sure to gather as much information as possible to be able to perform the best I can.
Idk these types of videos really stop intps from growing
Am i the only INTP who doesn't match the video? Or am i not an INTP at all🙂
I did the test SOO many times and watched A LOT of videos that i can relate to that's why I'm sure I'm an INTP but in the same time as an INTP i I'm not sure so what..? 🙂
Had to Laugh 🤣🤣🤣 at the Reference to Housework!!!
I'm Probably Unique in That I Love Puttering Around The House...
...Putting Things in Order.
But 3Weeks Later I want Something but No Clue Where I "Ordered" it...
So, I Tear Things Apart...
Find a Suitable Replacement...
And Move on To the Next Project...
Until A few days pass & I see the chaos that drives me crazy so I Put things Back in Order.
A Week Later I'm "Re-Organizing and Find the Thing I wanted In the First Place...So, The Project then is the first Project from 2Weeks Ago!!!
But ohhh I had Sooo Much Fun in The Process Because "Ordering" Things is My Coordinator/Curator Aspect of My Unique INTP Personality.
Overall...
I Live In the Juxtaposed Mix of Chaotic/Order.. Constantly Editing Everything to Avoid Boredom of any kind.
Did I Mention my ADHD??? 🤪
Attention Divergent/Diverse
Hyperactive Discernment/Decisiveness
I'm intp and I do wear makeup sometimes. It's not for being attractive to anyone, but I just like it.
I am an INTP and i wont leave the house without makeup, I love girly stuff, and i cook for my husband everynight.
Video: INTP females aren’t focused on looks
Same video: shows conventionally attractive women with pro hairstyles and makeup
I don’t mind beauty treatments, it’s just so hilarious
man it's like im watching a netflix romcom with a "not like other girls" trope💀
I don’t know if I am intp or adhd
I’ve taken the test many many times and alwys have the results as INTP. I’m very girly, and I do make up and hair. I excel in everything I try including cooking.
INTP females.. the PickMeishas of MBTI 😭😂😂
Even without any social skills, intps usually still find homes when an extrovert adopts them because they "like how weird they are"
Okay maybe a flower here and there won't make me feel weird.
Obviously solving a math problem is a lot easier than cleaning the floor.
After reading the comments, and as an ISTP male, I'm now more convinced than ever that I need to find a INTP female and merry her on the spot.
The perfect woman. It’s a damn shame she’s so rare.
Some is accurate I would say one's experience also shapes some decisions we make. I do wash my face and do skincare because I do care about how I look for myself but not to impress others. Which can be a different reason why most woman put on make up and look beautiful. I definitely connected better with men than with women. I think besides the bad hygiene and aversion to be parents I think quite a number of things are accurate. We do have fears but it wouldn't stop us if we deemed it was something we needed to do.
I am an INTP male who has recently started dating an INTP female. I am very excited and slightly scared. 😂
Woah man, INTP females exist? I was wrong, perfection does exist!
Ahahah thanks I'm happy to see there are men appreciating us
as an Intp i enjoyed doing 7 steps of skincare, cooking andfresh baked pastries as well as fashion, just want to dress the best for me not to others because i like me the best 😝😝😝
As an INTP woman, i don't know what delusional crap you were talking about with the "we don't care about our looks as much as other women". Of course we do! We are not some sort of alien species, we are still women put under the societal pressures of being pretty, whether we like it or not. Looking pretty might not be our top prioritiy due the constant "chaos" going around in our head, but we still try to make an effort to look good when we get the chance (I can't say this for all INTP women but i think the majority would agree).
I do makeup sometimes because I find it really fun actually. I love looking pretty, though I'm lazy but sometime its just fun and want to do it.
I'm an intp, I do my hair and makeup every day and I'd be a great housewife.
So many people commenting who either aren't INTP, or need to look at these traits a little deeper. Ok, so you love fashion and makeup, but the video says something else. Ask yourself why you love those things. Are you enjoying them on a deeper level than just, "Oh that's a cute skirt," or "I have to put this stuff on my face to appear prettier than other girls?" I think the thing about INTPs is that they look at things with logic and reason and find a deeper meaning in them.
As a 2% ENTJ, I salute the 1% of you!
Relate me a lot, i might seem weird but this is me.. but i still try my best to become better person for people around me
as an INTP am to busy cultivating the lense of awareness, to study the inner consiousness, to even think about how i look, i shower am clean. am on top of practicle things. the development of the Koshas, is top priority. As for Family, well ive done it but cant say that nesting and reproductive process is the highlight of the life expirience, more of a bio;ogical function,
I am an INTP female mother of an ESTJ teen son. I work as a director of a flight school. I loathe house work. I wear make up and dress appropriately.
As an INTP female, most of things are true. Especially that I can’t keep a chick as a friend per they come with too much drama and clingy-ness. I have always had guy friends, however that doesn’t work out for obvious reasons. It also doesn’t help that I have a very dark sense of humor.
Find it easier to solve a mathematical equation than to choose a fabric softener 😂🙋🏼♀️
Whether an INTP woman loves to look pretty or not depends on how interested she is in men.
Right.. I thought I was the only one with all these 'flaws'..
