"INTJs are the most independent of all the types, and don’t have much concern when it comes to how situations effect other people’s feelings. They want to do things well and do them efficiently, and are primarily attracted to people for what they can offer on an intellectual level. They can be empathetic, but only because they consciously decide, 'let’s try using empathy to try to make sense of what’s going on here.'”

Um....YES.

"Providing and respecting privacy for the child to express her creativity is vital. It is important to remember that the INTJ creates for herself, not for others. Not insisting or pressuring her to share the final product or beginning that it be displayed or discussed protects the enjoyment of the activity from being spoiled for the child and is a real gift of love to the young INTJ."

And this is EXACTLY why I never share my songs.

"In our society, the ideal self is bold, gregarious, and comfortable in the spotlight. We like to think that we value individuality, but mostly we admire the type of individual who’s comfortable “putting himself out there.” Our schools, workplaces, and religious institutions are designed for extroverts. __Introverts are to extroverts what American women were to men in the 1950s -- second-class citizens with gigantic amounts of untapped talent.__"

A good analogy.
