[Paleopsych] introverts

[Steve Hovland]

Speaking as an INTP, I am no longer holding my
breath waiting for the extroverted majority to
recognize my virtues.

These days my best thinking goes into building
up my own business.

Like gays, introverts serve a purpose, and we
should pursue it vigorously :-)

>>Extroverts therefore dominate public life. This 
is a pity. If we introverts ran the world, it would no
doubt be a calmer, saner, more peaceful sort of
place.<<

--I've seen a lot of brilliant introverts marginalized
in groups dominated by more outgoing but less talented
people. I wonder if there are ways to create groups
that nurture introverts rather than pushing them to
the edges? Our culture tends to believe that people
who are dominant and outgoing deserve to be on top,
but in the process a lot of good ideas are lost.
