Introverts tend to have higher IQ’s, tend to be more logically oriented, and act less on emotional drives. I am not attempting to bash the extrovert, but many extroverts hold misguided beliefs that introverts are genetically flawed. It seems like introversion is unjustly non-conducive to the business/corporate world as well.

End of story.

But in terms of criminal activity and actual psychological disorder, there is zero question that the vast majority of it is committed by so-called extroverts.

Looking back at it all it seems that others are envious that you’re not reliant on people. It’s the social push to be like them that you’re not following. There seems to be a subconscious or conscious hate from those that have fallen victim to societal norms to be extroverted against you; they don’t like that you’re introverted because it reminds them that they gave up their own identity to fit in with the crowd.

When I look at an introvert I see someone who just doesn’t accept the norms being forced upon them. They’re outcast or shamed or made fun of because of it but it’s not a bad thing, in fact it’s a good thing; it’s usually a different point of view from what’s being presented on the surface by everyone else falling in line. Yes it can be awkward and make an introvert feel out of place in a group but it isn’t a bad thing in any way.

I choose to believe them.

I have tested highly introverted. (INTP personality type) Introverted Intuitive Thinking Perceiver opposed to Extroverted Sensing Feeling Judger. I consider myself blessed and cursed. I can see many of our worlds lies, yet I am not highly tuned to the social aspects of humans. My fellow extrovert friends wish to dictate their lifestyle upon me, which I condemn. I generally don’t care that much about you or your friends, yet if you show me empathy and caring, I will be your brother for life. Unfortunately, this tends to be a rarity in todays narcissistic society.

Introversion and extroversion are behavioral traits that are inherited.

Mental disorders?? Sure….so what? A smart person would see that as a valid reason to just leave me the f~~~ alone,….let me be,…stay away. Unfortunately there are not very many smart people in the world.

I have Asperger’s Syndrome,…minor Tourette’s, and ADHD…. I bounce off the walls all inside my head and do not have the communication skills to explain it to anyone else….I have sensory input issues so I stay away from crowds….I always say the wrong thing and I lack emotional empathy so I stay away from one on one situations as well.

On the occasion I get myself focused however I am extremely creative……I was a straight “A” student all through high school and finished college with a 3.87 GPA.while working 50 hours a week……

I was born with those “Disorders” and they help me be who I am and have not really “reduced” me as an individual….”enhanced” is a better word I think.

However,…when you consider I was molested four different times before I was 10, three times by females and once by a man…then I was raked over the coals and completely ass raped by the courts on two separate occasions during divorce…..told by my Director at work I can not get the promotion I earned because I am a white male, and she cannot put any more white males into management until someone quits,….Yeah, I am a pretty angry, bitter, f~~~ed up individual…..but birth didn’t do it to me, lol …being an introvert if anything, actually helps me maintain my sanity…the world f~~~ed me up… everybody has “Mental Disorders” but the created ones in my opinion are far worse for people than the natural ones.

I’m extroverted which does seem to be a minority here. There’s no reason to ever apologize to anyone for being one or the other. I think it’s really more of misunderstanding each other’s way of viewing the external world. My family is a mixture of both as are my friends. I freak my introverted friends out whenever I start up conversations with total strangers in public. I enjoy both types and do not judge either. We simply process external things differently which seems foreign to the other.

My grandfather (moms side) was an engineer for NASA and my father is more extroverted. Considering my stance on being a voluntary isolationist, I consider myself a “happy” introvert. “Oh a flawed human being, we must stop him”. I love being alone and attempting to discover the realities in which us humans abide to.
