Fun to hear your perspectives. There are a few things I’ve found helpful as an INTP woman. I understand and embrace my natural curiosity as an expression of feminine energy, and I create my own safety which allows me to more easily surrender to the masculine energy of my partner. (I’m NOT talking about subservience in any way, but dropping the need to always be in charge and have everything “under control”). I think surrender was so hard before because of a lifetime of feeling I needed to be invulnerable and to never get it “wrong” or show incompetence in any way. Once I understood how much of this was coming from within I was able to see that I was the one responsible for making myself safe in the world. Another thing is to recognize that I don’t need to put my perspective onto a situation or discussion, as it usually isn’t heard anyway. But instead of judging or wishing others could comprehend things in a deeper level (huge energy drain!), I invest instead in my role as a detached observer, and reinforce to myself that others are where they are and it’s futile and arrogant to think they should be different then they are. By taking absolute responsibility for myself and my energy I’ve been able to reach a much more comfortable and nourishing place, and to experience the beauty of my own unique feminine energy.
Hello! Very interesting podcast. I’m an Intp woman, and more than anything when I’m with sf women or in a big crowd that is majority feeler, I have to almost drug myself with the moment or with a safe interesting topic in order for me to actually enjoy or look like Im interacting with the group. I find myself usually making big waves of fun to entertain myself, which also entertains others, yet I come into the problem of looking like I taking attention away from mostly esfj types, to which they eventually start getting jealous and even when I give the limelight back to them they feel like second pick. Or I leave the group in some way and it looks they are turning their heads asking “where’d she go?”. My friends know I’m a “randomized one hit wonder” socially more than a consistent flow of social harmony, but those new to me are really shocked when they find out my inconsistent nature in the social realm.
I grew up with almost all feelers, so I’ve always been different from them and my mother (esfj) knows that more than most. I have no nt women friends and 1 distant nt man friend, and have only met one legitimate intp man in my life that totally inspired me when I was young. My closest friends are an enfj, istj and isfj who each consider me to be their best friend and one has an especially interesting story as to why and how we came to be friends.
I don’t have an issues with femininity, but I can understand how others might. ?
