Hm, I'm not so convinced that NTs or STs can't take pleasure in analyzing humans. My father, for instance, is a very clear, classic ILE-Ti, and he is a psychiatrist. He loves to dissect people from the exact kind of angle I did in my post above.
I am not arguing for my type: on principle, unless it's a typing thread and I'm ready to go into the nitty gritty, I don't see the point in "defending my self-typing" or pushing a typing; I'm more interested to hear other people's take on my type, and how I come off. We are all blind to ourselves.
But, when I see possible misconceptions about theory, I do want to address them just so we can be clear that we're talking about the same thing.
Neil DeGrasse Tyson, for instance, is widely typed at EIE, and he talks about science. Why couldn't a thinker, then, take interest in psychology as a passion? Most people type Trent Reznor as a thinker, even if they disagree on the quadra - and his lyrics reveal a lot about his extreme, excessive feelings and his thoughts on human nature.
