PS – Not to totally diss seeking validation online, though! This was a great episode and great series, especially Antonia! ;-)
One of my favorite bands is a Japanese metal band called Hanabie. Well, they just recently released a song called “Ito Okashi My Type”. It’s evidently a social commentary about being obsessed with finding validation online. It wasn’t until I read the English lyrics that I realized it was especially centered around the MBTI, specifically sites like 16personalities! Upon a relisten, it’s now obvious that she’s screaming “16 TYPES” throughout the song! How funny!
Based on the song, it seems they probably have only a shallow understanding of type, but it’s still an incredibly fun song. The band is very unique, and they go hard if you’re into that! (I’ll be seeing them in March as they tour the US!) The link to the video is below, and the English lyrics are in the video description.
Enjoy!

There is always an eagerness to “place people in a box.” In my experience, this is simply the general, human inclination to need certainty and security. Frankly, this is how the human brain operates in the first instance – a need for certainty, and a disdain for complexity, uncertainty, doubt, nuance, and so on. For instance, I have professional credentials that I typically do not disclose, because doing so typically results in my having people “place me in a box,” and suppose a huge array of characteristics that have nothing really to do with the full span of who I really am.
