INTJ Redheads
The INTJ MBTI is characterized as expressing little to no emotion and generally these types are considered emotionally stable people. I am an INTJ, and tend to fall in line with this general assumption except for when it comes to anger. Perhaps it is just me and my personal background and mental health and/or emotional maturity level, but I really seem to have a short temper! The strongest emotion I feel, or at least express most often is anger. Of all the emotions, I can usually subdue them into submission and deal with them appropriately, but when I get mad, logic can really be thrown out the window, or expressed so intensely, one may be under the impression I am attacking them. I tend to be direct and blunt anyway, but when I get angry, a floodgate of expression is poured out to any bystander.
I hate to play to stereotypes, because I truly strive to evaluate an individual based on our one on one interaction, not pre-judge someone before we have had the chance to communicate. Yes, some people unfortunately fall into a stereotype, but I always allow people to show themselves first before making a judgment. Some people show their true character all too quickly, whether they realize it or not, and as a result I tend too judge quite quickly in response ;)
Anyway, I am also a redhead! Do I have a short temper because of this or is it just more a result from my upbringing and background? Rage and anger issues were a bit of a problem there, but no one else in my immediate family is a redhead, so what gives?
What do you think about an INTJ redhead? I would enjoy the insight of others, as long as it is presented logically. If it is not, I will dismiss you as a typical idiot, and most likely never take your opinions seriously again ;) Of course I do enjoy some good dry humor and clever sarcastic jokes are always welcome!!
