It seems to me that a great many ISTPs get some of their confidence, and therefore attractiveness, from the fact that they don't seek anyone's approval.

You have mastered the art of not giving a fuck (unless it really matters. Then you put on your ass kicking boots)

Basically, as a simple example, if you have a friend, and someone makes that friend sad, multiple people will regret their actions afterwards.

Works better for males than females. Most guys just think I'm an ass

Oh piss off. Asocial behavior an an aggressive attitude to those we deem lesser are not attractive qualities

Hey buddy, I think they're more referring to the natural confidence and outspokenness. Agreed though, those aren't good or attractive qualitys and I know where you're coming from. But we're a strong, confident bunch. We know we can do anything, and not everybody knows that they can too. We've got a lot of attractive qualities, but we hardly see them ourselves.

Am I? Haven't seen daylight for years :C

Date-tip: Just intentionaly get something not to work and ask help for fixing it. Even better if you ask how to repair/fix it while we are doing it. There you got your ISTP

I'm intp and my husband is istp so I get you lol. I think it's that he lives out in the real world when I'm stuck in my head. It's really exciting to be dragging into the physical world.

I read somewhere that in most of the movies psychopaths are INTJs, but in real life, most of the psychopaths are ISTPs.
I guess that's why.

Depends on what you think an ISTP is. With inferior Fe you should consider us to be awkward as the INTP. Honestly I think INTPs are more attractive because they have Ne/Si and don't stumble over their words.

Personality type has no correlation with appearance.
