    Flannery O'Connor
    INFJ

    INFJ (5w6)

    Flannery O'Connor personality type is INFJ, which is the rarest personality type measured on the Myers-Briggs test. In my study, I found that INFJ's are the most likely to be bullied in high school. They're also more likely to have been sexually abused by a parent, and they're more likely to have been physically abused by a parent.

    In INFJ's, I find that it's a very tragic kind of relationship with parents. INFJ's were the most common personality type in my study of cheerleaders in high school. They're the most likely to be ridiculed. They're the ones with the most control over what they do with their lives. They have a lot of power, and they're not sure what to do with it. In this situation, they're not sure how to use it.

    As a result they end up in relationships that are toxic, that do damage to them, that they can't get out of. They end up in relationships that are abusive, they end up in relationships where they're not allowed to make choices, and they end up in relationships where they don't feel good about themselves.

    Mary Flannery O'Connor (March 25, 1925 – August 3, 1964) was an American novelist, short story writer and essayist. She wrote two novels and thirty-two short stories, as well as a number of reviews and commentaries.

    She was a Southern writer who often wrote in a sardonic Southern Gothic style and relied heavily on regional settings and grotesque characters, often in violent situations. The unsentimental acceptance or rejection of the limitations or imperfection or difference of these characters (whether attributed to disability, race, crime, religion or sanity) typically underpins the drama.

    Her writing reflected her Roman Catholic religion and frequently examined questions of morality and ethics. Her posthumously compiled Complete Stories won the 1972 U.S. National Book Award for Fiction and has been the subject of enduring praise.
