: I don't know Mikko...

: You make good points, and you are probably right... but there is just something about what you say that makes it seem like you look down on all of us fours... Like you think we are these pour souls who just don't seem to get it, who can't get it together...

That's just it. Tell an unaware eight he is being to blunt and aggressive, and he thinks you are trying to control him. Or not necessarily to an unaware one, just someone less than very healthy. That feeling surfaces then. When the most basic ego defense is dealt with, it's inevitable that the first reaction is a strong "no!"

: I don't know.

: But I understand you aren't attacking fours, don't get me wrong. I know that since you aren't a four, you are more objective... I just get this impression that you are very negative about fours... tell me I'm wrong please :) Or if I'm not, well, it's ok!

I'm not any more negative about Fours than I'm about any other type.
