: : : 1) It's both depressing and humorous when white people listen to rap.
: : : 2) I don't think it's possible to be an Extraverted Five since the essence of a Five is introversion. You may have Five-like qualities. Perhaps you are an intelligent Seven?

: : ***If you really think every 5 in this world is an introvert on the MB you either too too many drugs or not enough.

: ... it would be like a starving beggar looking through the glass window of a bakery... all the time. I believe part of the nature of type 5 is attachment to ideas rather than people. I certainly think there are highly social 5s... but I have trouble with the idea of an extraverted 5. I've never met one.

***YOu are confusing extroversion as meaning sociablity. Extroversion simply means being charged by the objective outer world rather than a subjective inner one.
A five who is an ESTJ could be socially reserved but charged by the outer world of impersonal objects. Their social behavior although reserved would be dictated by social norms and customs (ET).

It suprises me how set-in-the-mold your and corys thinking is regarding types. The third functions of INTP's is IS. A hinderence to free thinking on one hand, a source of consistancy on the other.
