Jung's and Briggs Myers' theories of personality type

My type preffrence are :
Introvert(11%) iNtuitive(38%) Thinking(25%) Judging(44%) 
And i belive that this fits my charecter because the first word is (itrovert 11%) and i would have to agree with that becuase i would consider my self some what conservative. In social and in general and that this test proves that im more reserve then less reserve proves that im more reserve. i really dont talk much unless spoken to just because im not loud you can say? (iNtuitive 38%) i belive that this is really true because i mostly go with what my gut sais is right. for exmaple if i see a guy that needs help in a bad neighborehood i would most likely go to his aid and help him with out regard of my safety. (Thinking 25%) i would stongly have to aggre with this one because i really think before i say things ! or think about saying things diffrently to maybe mean something. the way the words come out mean a lot rathen then just saying something that you have no idea what youre talking about. (judging 44%) would be some what accurate because to the eye i perceive a lot of things that i might not ahve to ask. for example if someone is in a bad mood they might act slouchy and mean and i can judge that she is not her normal self. as for jobs the jobs are what i might light but in this case i grew up in a military familly and my dreamed always was to get a carrear in law inforcement but the choises given (IT) where spot on because thats one things i wanted to do if i did not follow my dream was to become at IT in computers tech.

This article is very informative in the fact that i my self actually experience thees things. they state that recreational exercise (Lifting weights) participants would control the volume more at points in the songs. rather then athletes they will most likely keep the volume at a set number. i can relate to this because when i work out and a song that i like comes out, i will raise the volume and usually lift more then usual but when a song comes out that i don't like i usually rest and lower the volume.

The main point of this article states the role of women in movies is not so much about the features they have but rather the role they play and that averages out for more consumers wanting it to watch it. And the end result will be that the the actor of that movie will NET a higher average of lets say a more exposed woman.
