When you said they’re constantly changing to please people is right on the nose! She said that in her woman of the decade billboard speech she said “I didn’t know then that people would find other things that bothered them and I would have to keep accommodating in order to please my critics” and “this decade I became a mirror for my detractors, whatever they said I couldn’t do is exactly what I did” or something along the lines. That being said, I don’t think this applies anymore since she ended her speech with “as for me, now I’m just focusing on doing whatever the hell I want”
As people get older and mature they learn how to balance out their functions a lot more ☺️ for her the imbalance always swings towards accommodating the group. So learning more how to take a step back from that is super healthy and great for her! :) I’m happy for her! Thanks for sharing those quotes!!

Good quotes demonstrating her Se+Fi. Fe accommodates; Se demonstrates. Ti does what one considers logical; Fi does what one wants. Clear ESFP Taylor Swift
“I need to make a better record”. Taylor, Reputation was your best record. Edit: For everyone saying I’m dragging Taylor, I still love her newer music. I just think Reputation is her best album.
I love how she went from always listening to what others want to what she wants. She started caring about herself more and stands up for herself. She talks about her opinions even though her dad doesn't want her to. I think it's great, that she cares about herself more than others, and do what she likes, not what others like.
I just started being me and it feels good. I understand Taylor but I'm infj. I feel what other ppl feel and understand what other people think however I don't get influenced too much by whether or not I'm liked.except by certain ppl. Like my kids.
@@madonnaswift4768 She's definitely insightful, a lyrical genius and her songs have a lot of emotion,. She also does have an intuitive side but those are all traits any personality type can demonstrate. To decipher someone's personality type you have to understand and analyze the thought processes and decision making styles behind the behavior. There are two emotional decision making styles - in this video we talked about how her documentary talks about how strong her Extroverted Feeling is and how that's affected her her entire life. She's great at making decisions that respect, honor and accommodate outside expectations and emotions - which is what Extroverted Feeling is great at. She for the majority of her life sacrificed her personal authenticity for the good of the group and outside expectations. That's not something an Introverted Feeler would be good at. She definitely has an intuitive side to her - we all do. But if you really understand what Introverted Sensing is - you can see that that's the personality superpower that's beautifully littered all over her lyrics. Introverted Sensing (from xSxJ personality types) is what makes her lyrics so potent, relatable and powerful. I'm excited to show examples of what I mean in my followup video. If you look at the building blocks behind how an INTJ sees the world, and makes decisions, it's wildly different from how Taylor does things. In fact, INTJ's are actually constantly plagued with problems because of how low their Extroverted Feeling is. They tend to be excellent masterminds, and schemers - but quite antisocial and abrasive because of their clumsy and sensitive Introverted Feeling. If you're just looking at it as broad buckets Introverted, Intuitive, Thinking and Judging...i can see where you're coming from! Taylor definitely has those sides to her. But when you dig into the cognitive functions, I personally thing different results are pretty clear. Hope my message doesn't come off the wrong way. As I said before, it's totally ok if we don't agree. I ultimately really appreciate you sharing your perspective and thoughts and being here! :)
2:35 is 'mirrorball' in a nutshell~ I loved this! Please do a follow up!!~ I used to be an INFJ but I'm now an INFP bc I think I finally let go of my 'people pleasing' tendecies haha
@Marr i think its definitely possible to change types as we age and mature. I first did the test when i was in high school and i got INFJ. When i went into uni, my perspectives changed, my dreams changed and i felt like parts of me changed too. So i did the 16personalities test again, and alas, i did change to INFP! When i read the descriptions, it definitely started to resonate more with me than being an INFJ. So yeah, from personal experience, it is possible to change types :)
@@elbowpatched same experience. I first took the quiz when I was in uni. And then couple years later after graduation, I took the test again, due to changed goals and preferences and possibly growth of personality in general haha, I changed from one type to another! :)))
I think you guys are agreeing more than you think. I agree it's very easy to mistype in high school or as Elbow put it, for core parts of your personality to not really show themselves until you get more life experience, clarify your values, dreams and put yourself in different contexts where your personality can properly unfold and show itself. I personally would not call that "changing your personality type" but rather discovering your real personality type. But i can see how that definitely feels like "changing your personality type." The same thing happened with me. I mistyped all the time in high school as an INTJ, because I was responsible in comparison to my peers and high school constantly forced me to be doing homework, being planned out and structured. So I thought I was a J. It wasn't until those outside constraints came off in college that my real sensibilities - doing my completely own thing, always pushing to be more flexible and spontaneous really showed itself strong and loudly -aka my natural and real personality type. When I learned cognitive functions, it got even more obvious I was actually an INTP. Ultimately I'm glad you found INFP as the better more accurate fit, Elbow! At the end of the day that's what matters and it's a wonderful tool to understand yourself better! :)
@Marr hello, I looked deeper into this and this may be one of the debates on the MBTI community. Many will argue that a person's personality type can't change but I would like to disagree. I remember watching a video (about mbti but getting it all wrong so the comment section were arguing) and someone said the MBTI system is like a building having 16 rooms (non verbatim, I don't remember the exact phrase haha). Saying that having taken your first test, you get assigned a room. But due to experiences and growth as a person over the course of your life, you are bound to have different preferences and beliefs than before. But I do agree that maybe it's just our original type evolving or maturing. Because I only changed from one variable to another. Or maybe because I didn't really fully understood the choices before and I do now so I have clearer answers leading me to get a different result.
@@EricWen thank you! These video are def making me understand myself better. I just wanted to say I love your videos, and these personality analyses! You are so underrated!
As a Ef, often I found people who sees me as an hypocrite, cuz "no one really care that much" but yes, I do care! And as Taylor Swift has done it (I'm a swiftie by the way) I've struggled finding a balance for care of other and caring for me as well.
I hope in a tiny way today’s video could help you guys get a little more of the understanding and appreciation you deserve! So much more to you all than just followers and people pleasers!!
I’m an INFJ and hearing all this made a lot of sense to me. I’m more of a introvert but I care a lot about people’s opinions. I also want to do what I think is right which is why it’s so hard for me to go against the grain. Anyways. Super cool to watch as I’ve been as TS fan for over 10 years.
She's a good person she is not perfect no one's perfect but she is a really good person admire her for taking him to court and speaking out for people who didn't get believe that got sexually violated and taking risks to make a difference
damn. I’m an ENFJ and connected with Taylor SO much in this documentary. Hearing her self-criticism, her constant desire to be loved and appreciated, were thoughts I hadn’t heard from a lot of people before and it was reassuring and scary to see how they could blast you to success and knock you down. Hearing you break this down was so helpful. Your advice was great and is something I’m working on, but it can be so hard to feel like you are a part of the group when all you’re life you’ve felt like you don’t belong.
I like using Woody from Toy Story as an example too! Always thinking about the group and bending over backwards to save the group or keep people together. Also very anchored and grounded in the past by Andy, his memories with Andy and what he represents.
Since swiftie is esfj . And I typed as intp is that like esfj but back to front cause I use Fe and ti. My ti Dom is used to sort our personal problems , feelings and I use my thinking as a hobby rather than a job. And I can be very self critical and I analyse my thoughts all the time but then on the other hand my Fe has this desire to belong and this group harmony but Executing it always contradicts with my Ti dom. But I guess I can relate to Taylor because my mind plays around with Si and Ne too Because with Si I store in sensory data and sensory experiences and I continuously salvage it and dig deeper into it rather than try new things without a map even though I’m p type I still like further notices and I can be sentimental and for me I’m more curious of the past than the future or trying out something new because I like to have that foundation of oh yes I’ve been there before I think I can finish off from there. Like I hate the idea of watching something I’ve never seen before I like to rewatch things because though I forgot the plot at least I have an idea if the movie is good because I don’t want to waste my time I want to salvage it. And then Ne Is my creative streak and I can think outside the box. So yea as an intp I guess I’m just the failed esfj who tried to be lol
Taylor’s just seemed like a quiet person on the inside (based on what I’ve heard about her from her early days) but is loud with her friends and doesn’t get that much stage fright becuase she can be not afraid when she wants to be. Basically she’s social when she wants to be! She is hard working but loves to have fun! She tries to super nice to everyone as well
Wow only 11 minutes in and as an INFJ I’m definitely feeling called out haha. I need to be a lot nicer to myself, but it is hard when you feel like you while goal in life is to please others.
@@emilymorse4144 that test is inaccurate, and isnt even an MBTI test. They are an OCEAN tests that typed with letters and NOT cognitive functions. So you're more likely mistyped. And please in the future do not reccomend this to other people, because they will get mistyped as well.
Literally cried watching this - my personality type to a T. Especially the chameleon and adapting to others personalities and getting fulfilment from meeting other people's needs, and the need to always do more, do better.
I hope and think she'll actually survive being a celebrity. So smart and mature. Unlike so many like MJ, Whitney, Elvis, and too many to list here. Fame is certainly a blessing and a curse.
No comparison to any of these other amazing artists. You’re comparing a chick who was brought up in money and privilege with ppl who still made it to amazing careers in the face of severe abuse trauma. (MJ and Whitney)They were also smart and mature and didn’t have daddy buy their music careers.🤷🏾♀️
I'm an INFJ, and this sounds sooo accurate for me. Thank you!! It helped me understand myself more and how to direct myself to not think of things that are negative and to focus more on makes me feel better. It was a big help.
As a swiftie and a part of the mbti/typology community, I’m so glad you’re spreading information about the actual cognitive functions and typing based on it. Your content is really great!! And teaching with such engaging visual and easy to process descriptions for beginners. -Enfp. What’s your type?
I'm an INTP! Yes! Trying to do my part to help people understand the functions better, in a fun accessible way and type as thoughtfully as I can. It really has bugged me how gated and encrypted the cognitive functions are for beginners. Thank you for noticing the efforts! :)
OK, I'm an INFJ and I really loved the validation of how much we have going on inside ❤ My Ti tends to be pretty strong, though, so I've often heard people tell me I'm calculative and clinical about emotions and it's hurt me to a point I couldn't even say that was happening.
I'm an INFJ and watching this video makes me realize how relatable my personality is to hers. I do understand reasons of her doings and feelings, close to mine. Thank you so much for this. It helps me to know more about myself.
She’s great!! Taylor is a developed Esfj. Many Esfjs females are nothing like her, unfortunately… When underdeveloped or unhealthy they dive into gossips, rumors, jealousy and are extremely competitive…Think of a classic school mean girl - Blair Waldorf, Regina George, Chantel from the Scream Queens.
As an ESFJ this was a super helpful video! It's cool to see someone else with the same personality type (especially because I, until recently, thought I was ENTP) and have you explain traits of it, I am also a huge Taylor Swift fan so this was a win win!! :)
I'm an INFJ, and I've always vibed with her personality. I have always kind of been an extroverted introvert. I feel like I understand what she's talking about most of the time because she speaks my language. She's a deep thinker, and the way she processes her thoughts is interesting.
I'm a ESFJ and I struggle a lot with me thinking"hey I text everyone every day saying hi how r u? But nobody texted me like ever saying how r u? How do u feel about this" and so meany friends have let me down so hard! I'm very transparent and some time I'm a little to transparent I'm also very vulnerable and I don't want to hurt some ones feelings so I let them hurt me. Why do I do that? I don't know I think it makes me think I'm a good person because of that! Sorry I just need to get it out.
I've heard the exact same from so many of my ExFJ friends. It's a silent hidden pain point for you guys! I hope this video could help a little! Internet hugs!
same here! I'm ENFJ it feels like I'm always reaching out to friends since this is the way that I show that I care about them... but when it's not returned it feels like they don't care about me. but another part of me knows that that's not always true. I feel the struggle!
Vulnerable is interesting….. ESFJ’s are not known for being truly vulnerable, just excessively polite. Being warm or considerate isn’t the same as being vulnerable. Vulnerability requires authenticity.
I just watched the Tom Hiddleston video, where you typed him as an INFP, and now I'm watching you type Tay as an INFJ. I've always been very confused about the differences between these two types, but these videos really helped me understand them better. As an INFJ myself, I find that Tay's willingness to be "good" and to adjust to situations according to what makes people around her comfortable really resonates with me. Thank you so much for helping me understand myself better. Just subscribed
After an extensive amount of research, I realised that I am an INFP. I have very strong introverted feeling but after watching this analysis, I am realising that I do have some extroverted feeling. There have been times when I care what people think about me and did things to make my some people happy
😲😲😲 it's crazy how I see things about myself within your videos, especially this one. I'm an empath who just thrives from pleasing others and seeing people win. Great video as always Eric.
As an ISFJ I relate to what she said about her childhood so much. It's not like you are trained to "be good" and behave so you just adjust to others and become a people pleaser later in your life. It comes from your inner core and you really cannot change it. You cannot "stop caring" about others. The introverted thinking can be also a burden when the things you're believing are harmful to you. It makes sense that Taylor is an FJ, although I'm not entirely sure if she's an ESFJ... I would rather suspect INFJ or ISFJ, but I'm not an expert and don't know her that well.
I agree, as an ISFJ as well, I also thought that she is an ISFJ. Her music and aura and personality screams ISFJ, but I’m also not an expert at the MBTI personality groups…so 🤷🏼♀️
just found out about your personality analysis and watched your last 3 videos, AMAZING ! I feel like i learn so much faster about MBTI with your explanations about specific situations that the person is in, illustrated by the video extracts. Do you think you could mention if a function is dominant, auxiliary, etc, when you talk about a function within a specific type ? (im still struggling to know what order the functions come in in each type... so it would probably be helpful for beginners !) Your explanations are so thorough and more nuanced than what we can read on the internet that i’m starting to doubt that i’m an INFP, might be an INTP after all... Anyway thank you !!! looking forward to more videos from you ☺️
Thanks so much for the feedback! If it makes sense to, I’ll def mention which function and the order I’m talking about more. So glad you like the videos and are learning from them! I put a lot of work and thought into trying to make them as accessible as possible. Lmk how your INFP or INTP inquiry goes too!! I’m very curious!
I’d love to see one on an INTP in the future as an INTP myself! Supposedly Aubrey Plaza, Bo Burnham, and Elliot Page are INTPs and could be potential subjects for a video if you’re looking for some relevant/famous INTPs to do a video on, although all of their types seem to be somewhat debatable. Keep up the good work regardless, I’ve really been enjoying this series - it’s really helpful to see how other people do typings
When Taylor Swift produces a documentary about herself, she’s being 100% authentic and there are no producers combing every second to make sure her brand is as appealing as humanly possible.
I'm an ISFJ, so strong in FE, but I really am good at not caring too much about what other people think. My value system is external, but it's not based on the people around me but more of an abstract history based (SI too!) value system. Like the values of people around me is too narrow to follow, I need an even bigger picture. Still of course i'm very much about group harmony sand making others feeling good, but I don't need their approval I don't care for others to make them like me, but becaue it's the right thing to do. I have always dressed differently and had eccentric interests and have almost had a compulsion never to do anything that could make someone think I did it to fit in with a group.
i just discovered your channel through this video and i really love it. it's so informative and amazing. i hope your channel blows up and you gain so many more subscribers because you really deserve it. :) and i definitely binge-watched a lot of your videos right now.
I relate so much to this that I literally cried. I wasn't her fan before but the more I get into videos about her, the more I feel connected 💖 it's great to be able to understand artists, it makes us understand and really respect and appreciate their art. thanks for this! I'm a new subscriber, and I'm lovin' it💗
Fantastic analysis, Eric!! This one felt like you were describing how my personality and mind works (at least in the FJ bit). Love that :) The animations reeeally work super well for visualizing it all too. WOO
Thank you Valeria! I’ve learned a lot talking in depth with FJ’s like you! Thanks for sharing all the behind the scenes stuff on what it feels like or you think about all the time so I can learn!
As an Infj, I try to from time to time check in on myself, for example through journaling, taking to someone I trust, or just thinking by myself. How have I been feeling lately, how am I feeling in this moment, and why? What is motivating me? What is pushing me down, without realizing it? How can I stay more true to myself and put myself first when needed? Something that also have worked really well for me is being more aware of which kind of people I surround myself with, and what kind of situations I am putting myself in. If I'm sensing a bad vibe from people, I get automatically more self aware and self conscious. Either that I just feel, on irrationally motives, that they dislike me, or that they send out these signals themselves. But if I'm with people I trust and feel comfortable around, I just am, without trying to analyze myself from an outward perspective.
@@EricWen at the risk of indulging in my fi too much and taking your comment as an invitation here are some fi doms! ☺️: Florence Welch, Robert Pattinson, Andrew Garfield, Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, Fiona Apple, Hozier, Kate Bush.
I've been looking for a personality breakdown of Taylor Swift because I am a big fan of her music as well as how she is lately after her reputation. The new Taylor who wants to gight for the underdogs regardless of the impact it has on her career. Just makes me feel proud. I'm happy two things are in here that I love: Taylor and MBTI! just subbed, really amazing breakdown of her personality :))
Of course she's a people pleaser. She's said that many times. It's part of her career. Duh. It's good that she is finding more of a balance. Inner peace and happiness. That sort of thing.
I am such a huge Taylor Swift fan. I think I got ENFJ last time I took the test, but when I watched Miss Americana, I couldn't help notice the way we process things is so similar.
mirrorball makes so much more sense now
first thing i thought lol
Wow..didn't think of this. Thanks
omg that’s what I thought
Omg
As an ENFJ, mirrorball is maybe one of her most relatable songs

I’m an INFJ and hearing all this made a lot of sense to me. I’m more of a introvert but I care a lot about people’s opinions. I also want to do what I think is right which is why it’s so hard for me to go against the grain. Anyways. Super cool to watch as I’ve been as TS fan for over 10 years.
She's a good person she is not perfect no one's perfect but she is a really good person admire her for taking him to court and speaking out for people who didn't get believe that got sexually violated and taking risks to make a difference
damn. I’m an ENFJ and connected with Taylor SO much in this documentary. Hearing her self-criticism, her constant desire to be loved and appreciated, were thoughts I hadn’t heard from a lot of people before and it was reassuring and scary to see how they could blast you to success and knock you down. Hearing you break this down was so helpful. Your advice was great and is something I’m working on, but it can be so hard to feel like you are a part of the group when all you’re life you’ve felt like you don’t belong.
Hugs!
I'm also an ENFJ and that last part really hit home for a sec :/ Starting to realise that we do need some help ourselves haha
YESS PART-2 PLS
The more Taylor Swift, the better.
Yeeees!!!!!
love it, she’s such a clear esfj i always use her as the example for this type
I like using Woody from Toy Story as an example too! Always thinking about the group and bending over backwards to save the group or keep people together. Also very anchored and grounded in the past by Andy, his memories with Andy and what he represents.
Since swiftie is esfj . And I typed as intp is that like esfj but back to front cause I use Fe and ti.
My ti Dom is used to sort our personal problems , feelings and I use my thinking as a hobby rather than a job.
And I can be very self critical and I analyse my thoughts all the time but then on the other hand my Fe has this desire to belong and this group harmony but Executing it always contradicts with my Ti dom.
But I guess I can relate to Taylor because my mind plays around with Si and Ne too
Because with Si I store in sensory data and sensory experiences and I continuously salvage it and dig deeper into it rather than try new things without a map even though I’m p type I still like further notices and I can be sentimental and for me I’m more curious of the past than the future or trying out something new because I like to have that foundation of oh yes I’ve been there before I think I can finish off from there. Like I hate the idea of watching something I’ve never seen before I like to rewatch things because though I forgot the plot at least I have an idea if the movie is good because I don’t want to waste my time I want to salvage it.
And then Ne Is my creative streak and I can think outside the box. So yea as an intp I guess I’m just the failed esfj who tried to be lol
I am S W I F T I E S kind of person.
Taylor’s just seemed like a quiet person on the inside (based on what I’ve heard about her from her early days) but is loud with her friends and doesn’t get that much stage fright becuase she can be not afraid when she wants to be. Basically she’s social when she wants to be! She is hard working but loves to have fun! She tries to super nice to everyone as well
I just discovered a channel so unique and informative
Just wow!
Thanks 😁😁 appreciate you being here!
I agree with you 😂
@@EricWen I really think Katy Perry is an ENFJ.
Wow only 11 minutes in and as an INFJ I’m definitely feeling called out haha. I need to be a lot nicer to myself, but it is hard when you feel like you while goal in life is to please others.
Same page..
How do you find out your personality type? I don’t want to go on some scammy website and end up with 500 viruses lol 💁♀️💁♀️💁♀️💁♀️
@@sarahw3133 www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test I used this website to find mine! It’s safe and has a lot of good information
@@emilymorse4144 that test is inaccurate, and isnt even an MBTI test. They are an OCEAN tests that typed with letters and NOT cognitive functions. So you're more likely mistyped. And please in the future do not reccomend this to other people, because they will get mistyped as well.
Literally cried watching this - my personality type to a T. Especially the chameleon and adapting to others personalities and getting fulfilment from meeting other people's needs, and the need to always do more, do better.
There's nothing wrong with meeting other peoples needs and to be good and be a better person.
I hope and think she'll actually survive being a celebrity. So smart and mature. Unlike so many like MJ, Whitney, Elvis, and too many to list here. Fame is certainly a blessing and a curse.
No comparison to any of these other amazing artists. You’re comparing a chick who was brought up in money and privilege with ppl who still made it to amazing careers in the face of severe abuse trauma. (MJ and Whitney)They were also smart and mature and didn’t have daddy buy their music careers.🤷🏾♀️
Tesha Miller why do you have to put down taylor?
@@teshamiller6001 daddy did not buy her a career lol ....when you're in Broadway or Disney..THAT is when daddy buys you a career lmao
Don’t forget kanye west
@@teshamiller6001 I think your daddy didn't feed you when you were born.You started eating and living from your own money right?
I'm an INFJ, and this sounds sooo accurate for me. Thank you!! It helped me understand myself more and how to direct myself to not think of things that are negative and to focus more on makes me feel better. It was a big help.
Yes. Internet Hug! Thanks for watching Beverly!
As a swiftie and a part of the mbti/typology community, I’m so glad you’re spreading information about the actual cognitive functions and typing based on it. Your content is really great!! And teaching with such engaging visual and easy to process descriptions for beginners. -Enfp. What’s your type?
I'm an INTP! Yes! Trying to do my part to help people understand the functions better, in a fun accessible way and type as thoughtfully as I can. It really has bugged me how gated and encrypted the cognitive functions are for beginners. Thank you for noticing the efforts! :)
I love Taylor swift so much everytime I watch miss Americana I cry I just cry by the thought of meeting her
OK, I'm an INFJ and I really loved the validation of how much we have going on inside ❤ My Ti tends to be pretty strong, though, so I've often heard people tell me I'm calculative and clinical about emotions and it's hurt me to a point I couldn't even say that was happening.
taylor is such an obvious Fe dominant and a 3w2, always caring about how others view her work, and is very very careful to not disappoint or fail.
I'm an INFJ and watching this video makes me realize how relatable my personality is to hers. I do understand reasons of her doings and feelings, close to mine. Thank you so much for this. It helps me to know more about myself.
She’s great!! Taylor is a developed Esfj. Many Esfjs females are nothing like her, unfortunately… When underdeveloped or unhealthy they dive into gossips, rumors, jealousy and are extremely competitive…Think of a classic school mean girl - Blair Waldorf, Regina George, Chantel from the Scream Queens.
Taylor works so hard its insane she deserves the world
As an ENFJ and someone who loves Taylor this video was both very helpful and interesting. New subscriber here!
As an ESFJ this was a super helpful video! It's cool to see someone else with the same personality type (especially because I, until recently, thought I was ENTP) and have you explain traits of it, I am also a huge Taylor Swift fan so this was a win win!! :)
from an ENFJ, this is honestly so well done! SUBSCRIBING IMMEDIATELY
Thank you!!
Same...
@@EricWen really liked it
This is quite a new take in talking about Taylor. I'm hooked! This is amazing.
okay, we want part 2!!
Nice one, Eric! The graphics in this video was amazing. Love how your videos are highly unique. Can't wait for the next one!
Thanks Tarvala! Was animating a lot this past week! Thanks for noticing!
I'm an INFJ, and I've always vibed with her personality. I have always kind of been an extroverted introvert. I feel like I understand what she's talking about most of the time because she speaks my language. She's a deep thinker, and the way she processes her thoughts is interesting.
"you are not nominated"
"Oh.." on the verge of tears
Eric: laughs
I just found this so funny, no shade
Yup cuz we can see through it. It's ironic. She pretends she's fine but she isn't. She wants to cry so bad but it won't change anything.
Y'all.. is it just me or are we all crying? As a Swiftie, this really hits different. Thank you so much for this!
Every other analysis I’ve watched just calls her a psychopath because of her songs, this was a little heartwarming
I'm a ESFJ and I struggle a lot with me thinking"hey I text everyone every day saying hi how r u? But nobody texted me like ever saying how r u? How do u feel about this" and so meany friends have let me down so hard! I'm very transparent and some time I'm a little to transparent I'm also very vulnerable and I don't want to hurt some ones feelings so I let them hurt me. Why do I do that? I don't know I think it makes me think I'm a good person because of that! Sorry I just need to get it out.
I've heard the exact same from so many of my ExFJ friends. It's a silent hidden pain point for you guys! I hope this video could help a little! Internet hugs!
@@EricWen thank you so much it did help so much!!
You’re not alone, I’m the same way
same here! I'm ENFJ it feels like I'm always reaching out to friends since this is the way that I show that I care about them... but when it's not returned it feels like they don't care about me. but another part of me knows that that's not always true. I feel the struggle!
Vulnerable is interesting….. ESFJ’s are not known for being truly vulnerable, just excessively polite. Being warm or considerate isn’t the same as being vulnerable. Vulnerability requires authenticity.
I just watched the Tom Hiddleston video, where you typed him as an INFP, and now I'm watching you type Tay as an INFJ. I've always been very confused about the differences between these two types, but these videos really helped me understand them better. As an INFJ myself, I find that Tay's willingness to be "good" and to adjust to situations according to what makes people around her comfortable really resonates with me. Thank you so much for helping me understand myself better. Just subscribed
After an extensive amount of research, I realised that I am an INFP. I have very strong introverted feeling but after watching this analysis, I am realising that I do have some extroverted feeling. There have been times when I care what people think about me and did things to make my some people happy
i'm so glad youtube recommend this to me. i need to learn more about functions
Thanks for being here Nayla!
You're asking us if we want a follow up video!?
Y E S.
Yes please do a follow up! I would love to see how she uses her Ne function
my two favorite things: taylor swift and mbti. great video! learned lots
Fascinating! I think you’ve really found your niche with these videos! Great to see the channel growing so well!
Thanks so much James :)
As an INFJ, I felt very seen. Thank you for presenting this in a very clear way.
I'm fucking crying how I really see myself in this.
The way she wanted everyone to be happy makes me happy too🥺
i love this series so much. thank you for looking into the cognitive functions instead of typing by letters like a lot of others do
😲😲😲 it's crazy how I see things about myself within your videos, especially this one. I'm an empath who just thrives from pleasing others and seeing people win. Great video as always Eric.
I think you might be an ENFJ! :) Definitely an FJ for sure like her! :)
As an ISFJ I relate to what she said about her childhood so much. It's not like you are trained to "be good" and behave so you just adjust to others and become a people pleaser later in your life. It comes from your inner core and you really cannot change it. You cannot "stop caring" about others. The introverted thinking can be also a burden when the things you're believing are harmful to you.
It makes sense that Taylor is an FJ, although I'm not entirely sure if she's an ESFJ... I would rather suspect INFJ or ISFJ, but I'm not an expert and don't know her that well.
i can relate-another isfj
I agree, as an ISFJ as well, I also thought that she is an ISFJ. Her music and aura and personality screams ISFJ, but I’m also not an expert at the MBTI personality groups…so 🤷🏼♀️
When you like a CZcamsr so much you like their video before watching it:) Great job as always, Eric! 👏
Ahh too kind thank you!
just found out about your personality analysis and watched your last 3 videos, AMAZING ! I feel like i learn so much faster about MBTI with your explanations about specific situations that the person is in, illustrated by the video extracts.
Do you think you could mention if a function is dominant, auxiliary, etc, when you talk about a function within a specific type ? (im still struggling to know what order the functions come in in each type... so it would probably be helpful for beginners !)
Your explanations are so thorough and more nuanced than what we can read on the internet that i’m starting to doubt that i’m an INFP, might be an INTP after all...
Anyway thank you !!! looking forward to more videos from you ☺️
Thanks so much for the feedback! If it makes sense to, I’ll def mention which function and the order I’m talking about more. So glad you like the videos and are learning from them! I put a lot of work and thought into trying to make them as accessible as possible.
Lmk how your INFP or INTP inquiry goes too!! I’m very curious!
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE A PERSONALITY VIDEO OF KENNEDY WALSH... PLEASE
I’d love to see one on an INTP in the future as an INTP myself!
Supposedly Aubrey Plaza, Bo Burnham, and Elliot Page are INTPs and could be potential subjects for a video if you’re looking for some relevant/famous INTPs to do a video on, although all of their types seem to be somewhat debatable. Keep up the good work regardless, I’ve really been enjoying this series - it’s really helpful to see how other people do typings
I’m an INTP too :) thanks for the suggestions. Can’t wait to analyze an INTP soon
Hey i would be so curious for Billie Eilish!
ISFP maybe
This video not only helped me understand Taylor more but helped me understand myself more so thank you so much for making it :)
When I’m Taylor Swift 💀 explains why I love and understand her so well
When Taylor Swift produces a documentary about herself, she’s being 100% authentic and there are no producers combing every second to make sure her brand is as appealing as humanly possible.
You feed my wellbeing... I thank YT's algorithm to lead me here.
I'm an ISFJ, so strong in FE, but I really am good at not caring too much about what other people think. My value system is external, but it's not based on the people around me but more of an abstract history based (SI too!) value system. Like the values of people around me is too narrow to follow, I need an even bigger picture. Still of course i'm very much about group harmony sand making others feeling good, but I don't need their approval I don't care for others to make them like me, but becaue it's the right thing to do. I have always dressed differently and had eccentric interests and have almost had a compulsion never to do anything that could make someone think I did it to fit in with a group.
i would LOVE another video on Taylor!
I've never felt more validated than this video wowie
Hugs!
i just discovered your channel through this video and i really love it. it's so informative and amazing. i hope your channel blows up and you gain so many more subscribers because you really deserve it. :)
and i definitely binge-watched a lot of your videos right now.
Welcome aboard! Thank you!!
When she said “everyone was so happy” a tear might have come out.
I literally rewatched her documentary yesterday, so this was really nice, especially as a people pleaser myself
4 mins were more than enough for me to subscribe.
I am learning a lot.
Thanks for being here! :)
im an infj, and this helped a lot-
I relate so much to this that I literally cried. I wasn't her fan before but the more I get into videos about her, the more I feel connected 💖 it's great to be able to understand artists, it makes us understand and really respect and appreciate their art. thanks for this! I'm a new subscriber, and I'm lovin' it💗
Fantastic analysis, Eric!! This one felt like you were describing how my personality and mind works (at least in the FJ bit). Love that :)
The animations reeeally work super well for visualizing it all too. WOO
Thank you Valeria! I’ve learned a lot talking in depth with FJ’s like you! Thanks for sharing all the behind the scenes stuff on what it feels like or you think about all the time so I can learn!
As an Infj, I try to from time to time check in on myself, for example through journaling, taking to someone I trust, or just thinking by myself. How have I been feeling lately, how am I feeling in this moment, and why? What is motivating me? What is pushing me down, without realizing it? How can I stay more true to myself and put myself first when needed?
Something that also have worked really well for me is being more aware of which kind of people I surround myself with, and what kind of situations I am putting myself in. If I'm sensing a bad vibe from people, I get automatically more self aware and self conscious. Either that I just feel, on irrationally motives, that they dislike me, or that they send out these signals themselves. But if I'm with people I trust and feel comfortable around, I just am, without trying to analyze myself from an outward perspective.
So happy to read this! :)
I love Taylor Swift since 2005 ❤❤ I admire her a lot. And she's my inspiration to pursue my dream ❤❤❤
Wow, 2005? How did you hear about her back then?
I love Taylor Swift’s personality. She’s such a gem.
This series is absolutely amazing! I can’t wait until you analyze someone with dominant Fi.
you guys are always hiding haha - I'll find a mainstream dom. Fi soon i'm sure though!
@@EricWen at the risk of indulging in my fi too much and taking your comment as an invitation here are some fi doms! ☺️: Florence Welch, Robert Pattinson, Andrew Garfield, Kurt Cobain, John Lennon, Fiona Apple, Hozier, Kate Bush.
@@cristinacarvajal9846 super helpful! I only knew about Andrew Garfield off the top of my mind. Thank you!!!!
@@EricWen you’re welcome! :)
I've been looking for a personality breakdown of Taylor Swift because I am a big fan of her music as well as how she is lately after her reputation. The new Taylor who wants to gight for the underdogs regardless of the impact it has on her career. Just makes me feel proud.
I'm happy two things are in here that I love: Taylor and MBTI!
just subbed, really amazing breakdown of her personality :))
Made me smile reading this! :) Thank you Al for being here! and the kind words!
She’s amazing, and I hope you make a part 2!
you're so intelligent and articulate - another well-explained and fascinating video!
Thank you so much :) I really try my best to be as clear as possible in these!
Agreed! Olivia Rodrigo, Taylor Swift and I are now on the same sister boat 😆
I'm so glad I stumbled on this video, I would love a followup, Taylor had evolved even more in terms of personality and artistry 😍
I’m an FJ type and I relate to this so much!!
You should really do more videos like these, they have the potential to go viral and would be a gift to the fans!
Working hard on more!! :)
OMG I'M DEFINITELY AN EXTRAVERTED FEELER
this video describes me so damn well as an enfj, thankyou.
This was such a great and interesting video! I would love to have a follow up on Taylor :)
Why do I feel like I relate to Taylor more now?
yessss you actually did Taylor!!!
Of course she's a people pleaser. She's said that many times. It's part of her career. Duh. It's good that she is finding more of a balance. Inner peace and happiness. That sort of thing.
Can you classify Armie Hammer. With all these allegations he has it gives me curiosity how he is and/or think
I am such a huge Taylor Swift fan. I think I got ENFJ last time I took the test, but when I watched Miss Americana, I couldn't help notice the way we process things is so similar.
Great video btw! ❤️
So glad I found your channel I love these personality critiques! Interested to know what your personal personality type is?
I’m an INTP!
This is so much more impressive than astrological signs the amount of analysis you can back this up with
