INTP personality
Who is A Logician (INTP)? Logician (INTP) is someone with the Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking, and Prospecting personality traits. These flexible thinkers enjoy taking an unconventional approach to many aspects of life. They often seek out unlikely paths, mixing willingness to experiment with personal creativity. The important thing is not to stop questioning. Logicians pride themselves on their unique perspectives and vigorous intellect. The Life of the Mind Logicians often lose themselves in thought – which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Imaginative and curious, Logician personalities can find endless fascination in the workings of their own mind. From the outside, Logicians may seem to live in a never-ending daydream. But it would be a mistake to think that Logicians are unfriendly or uptight. Elementary, My Dear Logician Logicians love to analyze patterns. Ironically, Logicians shouldn’t always be held at their word. Mysteries of the Universe

Look Me In The Eye: Life as an Aspergian female - a story I had to share I’d like to share a moving story of what it’s like to have Asperger’s from the female point of view. I’ve always known Asperger’s manifests itself differently in girls than in guys. Yesterday I received this beautifully written essay, and I just had to share it with you. Everybody says Asperger's' main symptom is a lack of empathy but I don't think that's true. Empathy -- I'm extremely empathic when it comes to the underdog, animals, children, the poor, the starving, etc. Honesty -- Aspies are incapable of telling lies. Speaking Style -- Aspergians tend to download data onto you rather than have a 2 way conversation. Teasing -- We don't get it. Obsessions -- I go very intensely into one or two topics at a time. Age -- Aspies are age-inappropriate. Very High IQs -- Mine is 165. Clumsiness -- Well I have bruises and scars over my entire body. Language -- We are little professors with great vocabularies, perfect grammar, and incredible diction. Insomnia -- The brain simply never stops.
