I agree with your general point about the chain-mail style bullshit, but it's not just an ego-stroke for self-described introverts: many are value judgments against introverts.
>Myth #7 – Introverts are weird.
Introverts (in my experience) _reject the concept of weird_. Social decisions like who's "in" and who's "out" hold no weight. Until this is understood, you're (by you I mean the writer, not you, parfe) not countering the myth that introverts are weird, you're just explaining the reasons people say that introverts are weird.
>Introverts cannot “fix themselves” and deserve respect for their natural temperament and contributions to the human race.
Again, what is "broken?"
It reads like an extrovert making a poor attempt to explain what he knows of introversion to other extroverts.
- chrischen 15y agoErr... the fact that "fix themselves" is in quotes implies there may or may not even be anything to fix.
