Well.. still, it is not fully agreed upon we should write off phrenology altogether. It may have a lesser correlation, but I am not willing to say there is zero correlation. There is also the problem of getting a fully relaxed photograph. That is not really happening. More like, a relatively relaxed photograph. It's really not the same as saying all Ips are fatasses, because fatness is not entirely an inborn trait. I actually think it's more developed then it is inborn. We also haven't actually put forward evidence to suggest Ips are fatasses, where in this case she has some pictures which to her suggest a correlation, and I presume she doesn't know any ESFps who lack the trait she's examining. But if a person compiled a list of all the Ips in their lives and it turned out there was a high probability of them being fat, and then I saw a similar trend in the Ips I encountered, I would be completely comfortable in saying "Ips are more likely to be fat". And you could call that phrenology if you wanted.
