    INTJ - and it describes me perfectly!

    It is interesting that there are so many introverts here. The rough estimate is that 25% of the general population is introverted, while of the respondents here we have 81%

    Also it is estimated that only 2% of the population is INTJ, while we have 28.5%.

    I think there is a pretty good explanation for this. First, it is probably safe to assume that frequent forum users are on average more introverted than those that use forums less frequently. Second, the entire process of going to emptyclosets.com to explore one's own sexuality is very rational and is likely to be found by anyone that approaches the world in a slightly more logical way. This isn't to say that other personality types wouldn't be asking the same questions and using the same means to find their answers, but on average I think that may be the case. A final explanation might be an actual correlation between introversion and non-conforming sexual and gender identities. That might be expected since many of us grew up in less accepting environments, so we may naturally have developed small, close circles of friends (and thus more introverted tendencies).

    ISFJ
    Introvert(67%)
    Sensing(12%)
    Feeling(12%)
    Judging(44%)

    The Nurturer

    As an ISFJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you takes things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into your personal value system.

    ISFJs live in a world that is concrete and kind. They are truly warm and kind-hearted, and want to believe the best of people. They value harmony and cooperation, and are likely to be very sensitive to other people's feelings. People value the ISFJ for their consideration and awareness, and their ability to bring out the best in others by their firm desire to believe the best.

    ISFJs have a rich inner world that is not usually obvious to observers. They constantly take in information about people and situations that is personally important to them, and store it away. This tremendous store of information is usually startlingly accurate, because the ISFJ has an exceptional memory about things that are important to their value systems. It would not be uncommon for the ISFJ to remember a particular facial expression or conversation in precise detail years after the event occured, if the situation made an impression on the ISFJ.

    ISFJs have a very clear idea of the way things should be, which they strive to attain. They value security and kindness, and respect traditions and laws. They tend to believe that existing systems are there because they work. Therefore, they're not likely to buy into doing things in a new way, unless they're shown in a concrete way why its better than the established method.

    ISFJs learn best by doing, rather than by reading about something in a book, or applying theory. For this reason, they are not likely to be found in fields which require a lot of conceptual analysis or theory. They value practical application. Traditional methods of higher education, which require a lot of theorizing and abstraction, are likely to be a chore for the ISFJ. The ISFJ learns a task best by being shown its practical application. Once the task is learned, and its practical importance is understood, the ISFJ will faithfully and tirelessly carry through the task to completion. The ISFJ is extremely dependable.

    The ISFJ has an extremely well-developed sense of space, function, and aesthetic appeal. For that reason, they're likely to have beautifully furnished, functional homes. They make extremely good interior decorators. This special ability, combined with their sensitivity to other's feelings and desires, makes them very likely to be great gift-givers - finding the right gift which will be truly appreciated by the recipient.

    More so than other types, ISFJs are extremely aware of their own internal feelings, as well as other people's feelings. They do not usually express their own feelings, keeping things inside. If they are negative feelings, they may build up inside the ISFJ until they turn into firm judgments against individuals which are difficult to unseed, once set. Many ISFJs learn to express themselves, and find outlets for their powerful emotions.

    Just as the ISFJ is not likely to express their feelings, they are also not likely to let on that they know how others are feeling. However, they will speak up when they feel another individual really needs help, and in such cases they can truly help others become aware of their feelings.

    The ISFJ feels a strong sense of responsibility and duty. They take their responsibilities very seriously, and can be counted on to follow through. For this reason, people naturally tend to rely on them. The ISFJ has a difficult time saying "no" when asked to do something, and may become over-burdened. In such cases, the ISFJ does not usually express their difficulties to others, because they intensely dislike conflict, and because they tend to place other people's needs over their own. The ISFJ needs to learn to identify, value, and express their own needs, if they wish to avoid becoming over-worked and taken for granted.

    ISFJs need positive feedback from others. In the absence of positive feedback, or in the face of criticism, the ISFJ gets discouraged, and may even become depressed. When down on themselves or under great stress, the ISFJ begins to imagine all of the things that might go critically wrong in their life. They have strong feelings of inadequacy, and become convinced that "everything is all wrong", or "I can't do anything right".

    The ISFJ is warm, generous, and dependable. They have many special gifts to offer, in their sensitivity to others, and their strong ability to keep things running smoothly. They need to remember to not be overly critical of themselves, and to give themselves some of the warmth and love which they freely dispense to others.

    As ENFP as they come. Ne controls my life, but Fi holds me back.
    I should mention I'm also an enneagram type 3w2, 9w1, 4w5 so/sx.
    Chaotic good.

    ..Personality theory has intrigued me for years.

    I took this professionally during my masters degree and have administered it several times. I enjoy the test thoroughly so to see this breakdown is wonderful. Kudos to the OP

    -You have strong preference of Introversion over Extraversion (89%)

    -You have slight preference of Intuition over Sensing (12%)

    -You have moderate preference of Feeling over Thinking (50%)

    -You have slight preference of Perceiving over Judging (22%)

    This seems about right for me.

    Independent, original, analytical, and determined. Have an exceptional ability to turn theories into solid plans of action. Highly value knowledge, competence, and structure. Driven to derive meaning from their visions. Long-range thinkers. Have very high standards for their performance, and the performance of others. Natural leaders, but will follow if they trust existing leaders.

    My actual type is INFP, though I almost always get either INTJ, ISTJ, or INTP on these type of quizzes. The internalized feeler"phobia" is so strong, man

    INTP here

    Describes me pretty well, huh

    Although there was a period in my life when I thought I was an INTJ, now I'm sure that identifying with the first type explains the workings of my brain way better.

    Been really interested in this kind of thing lately. Took a few tests and found out I'm an INTP. I've read up a lot about this personality type and it just described me so perfectly. Never knew a lot of the weird things I do are often attributed to people with this type of personality. It really hit the nail on the head on who I am as a person. It explains.... so much about me, what I've done, why I've done those things, what goes on in my mind, and how I do things. The ways I've described myself before taking these tests are pretty much what the results themselves have said.

    I'm somewhere in between INTJ and INFJ. it feels I'm more INTJ, though. I rely more on logic than on emotions.
