I've not gotten any problems with being an INFP male other than the sense of being ignored, which is just my perception and not reality. I don't feel the need to express my feelings at all with others, especially undeserving strangers, I'm quite happy in my own little shell when I'm in public. I don't get offended by people at all unless I have a personal agenda with them.
I'm not currently aware of the "female stereotypes" that infp males face i guess, so it doesn't concern me as much as it does with those who worry about such nonsense. If people don't like me for me, then that's their loss in every sense, what would i have to gain from having such a miserable person in my life? Nothing, move along now. So those who believe in these stereotypes as even existing need to question your own way of thinking and why you're holding onto to them, it's rather insane.
"Not really. I find myself acting more undefined compared to societies typical point of view. I act different from most men and women I see."
What BlueGuardian said.
I agree completely, the only insecurities i may face is not being the stereotypical guy. Which i don't care to be. Trying to be something is a sure sign that you're not. Meaning guys who try to be all macho and tough acting, are rather weak and insecure about themselves, so they have to show the world how tough they are.
I just be myself, if someone wants to flex or get all fighty, i end it quickly, no need to puff my chest out and pretend. It takes a lot of real strength, something INFP males have and is often overlooked by society (because society in general is weak and insecure) so they see us as a threat. I'm sure a lot of other guys can relate to this scenario, We walk into a bar/club/venue of any sort, and every guy around us instantly changes demeanor for the worse. Why? Because they can read as well enough that we're the real men women want and they still have to prove themselves. We command authority without even wanting it or seeing it.
I almost feel bad for other guys when they get that way, but then i don't, because i don't care for their idiotic ways and being victims of their own constraint and created devices.
Side note, for the girls who like that typical type of male, i want nothing to do with your kind. Ever.
