Well, I think
can notice similarities between different people and things and group them together in some way, finding the connection that is similar to them all. I would probably refer to my favourite socionics sample the ISTj (LSI) for more examples.
Things like...
"People who wear hats are gay."
"Rich people are pansies."
"Blond haired people can't fight."
Also, Ti will compare and contrast things in the world based on certain criteria...
"The Honda has this, this, and this; wheras the Toyota has this, that, and the other"
It divides the important things, from the non important things...
"Well, I want this, and that, so I will get the Honda"
It's not really LOGIC as much at it is just a tool that makes you comfortable noticing similarities and differences, and being able to use these similarities and differences, and set them up in some sort of structure in which to evalutate the totality of these informations, and come to a decision.
The "logic" thing is just kind of a way to say that as the intellegence and perspicuousness of the person increases, the trend towards this function to be similar to pure logic increases.
Having an ENTIRE function devoted to doing pure logic would be gay. Having a function to compare, contrast, and draw out similarities and differences to arrive at a simplified framework of reality....now THAT is a function that is worthwhile to have.
Dimitri Lytov, Rick DeLong (msk of course, cuz this post is to her) and anyone else I am cool with is excluded from the following statement:
To those of you who want to be total fuckfaces and argue with me about this, don't, because I really don't feel like looking up the links right now, but I am fucking right okay, I know my shit, and you can stick your argument up your gay ass!
