I wouldnt have guessed that just by sheer number ENFPs are more likely to have higher IQs. I'm not here to claim that the average INTp is smarter than the average INTj, or otherwise. You are personable, capable and confident - all seemingly without trying. People with a preference for F doesn't mean they think less, and vice-versa, and it's also possible that yes, some think less, and vice-versa. etc. And they have so many ideas too. It was a paradox; and thus my religion was conceived: Paradoxitheism. And I'm tired of seeing the countless sheep all say the exact same stuff about all MBTI types being the same intelligence and yadda yadda yadda. Cool. INTP and INTJ are actually the precise opposite, which becomes clear when you learn the theory and stop basing things off the inaccurate tests. And the INFJ is the rarest of personality traits.
