Ai Weiwei Personality Type, MBTI
What is the personality type of Ai Weiwei? Which MBTI personality type best fits? Personality type for Ai Weiwei from Artists and what is the personality traits.
INTJ (5w6)
Ai Weiwei personality type is INTJ, which makes sense because INTJs are known for their critical thinking and intellectualism. Introverts, such as Ne Tsan, Ne Tsan's father, and Ai Weiwei, are known to be introverted and to often display a lack of social grace, which is especially evident in Ne Tsan and his father's cases.
I don't think it's too far-fetched to say that Ne Tsan and Ne Tsan's father simply didn't want to deal with their introverted qualities, and that they were too self-conscious and self-critical to be outwardly social.
The Introverted Style
As an INTJ myself, I understand the struggle that Ne Tsan and his father had in being outwardly social. Introverted people often find it hard to fake fake personality when they need to interact with others. When you're in a social situation, you have to put on a fake personality to avoid being judged by others. If you're an INTJ in a social situation, it can be a struggle to do this.
That said, I don't think this is what went on in the case of Ne Tsan and Ne Tsan's father.
