>That is mostly consistent with my personal experience, intuition, and research.
>mostly = vague
>evidence = anecdotal
Thus a completely redundant sentence that is not proving anything.

>Jung was obviously on to something
>obviously
Why obviously? It's not obvious at all if it's completely inconsistent.

>In fact, relationships found between MBTI and things like gender, sexuality, IQ, job/major, and psychological disorders have been found that suggest plenty of validity to MBTI.
>doesn't provide any source to back up said claim
Yet again, a completely redundant claim you could've simply kept to yourself.

Also, MBTI completely ignores the fact that people can change their personality and behaviour depending on the circumstances. People attempted to explain those phenomena with 'function grips' and conclude that it's beneficial for the individual to go back to their usual behaviour instead as it's allegedly their most 'natural' one even though none of it has ever been proven.

In a nutshell, it's nothing but pseudoscience and should be kept outside of /sci/. If you really want to circlejerk about your results, there are plenty of alternative boards to do so, such as >>>/soc/ , >>>/r9k/ or simply reddit.

This.

>Well one example is the concept of inclusive fitness, which is the idea that an organism can still enhance the passing on of its genes even if it doesn't reproduce, by for example babysitting it's sibling's children which contain 1/4 of its DNA.
Glad to see we are pulling shit out of our ass to further (and vaguely) attempt to support an unprovable hypothesis. I guess the neat thing about it is you can say that anything we do, think or didn't do came from evolution, because it is and always has been the gap filler for "I don't know" in the scientific community when people can't think for themselves.
