Alright, let’s get right into it, starting with..
They say the rare INFJ personality type is
one of the most difficult types to have. With
constant feelings of being misunderstood, innate
introversion, and the unshakable notion of being
lost in the world around them, all INFJs share
a similar sense of not belonging. However, aside
from this shared difficulty, the INFJ man and the
INFJ woman experience their own unique struggles
that the other gender wouldn’t quite relate
to. For the female INFJ, keeping their maternal
empathy protected with proper boundaries can serve
to be much more difficult compared to the INFJ
man. However, because of the INFJ man’s ability
to put up a guard more easily, they tend to suffer
from internalizing feelings far more than the INFJ
woman. Additionally, societal expectations put a
great deal of pressure on the more sensitive INFJ
man in comparison to the INFJ woman. While this
may not seem so apparent from the outside looking
in, INFJ men have the tendency to suppress their
soul-nurturing hobbies to pursue interests that
better align with the expected male role. On the
flip side, however, the INFJ woman may experience
more financial instability due to this freedom.
It’s often said that men and women of any
understanding one another. With different wiring,
the two genders experience life through different
perspectives. When referring to the INFJ man and
woman, this undeniable truth remains apparent. In
fact, this contrast becomes even more noticeable
when it comes to their communication styles and
mannerisms. While it’s true that both the INFJ man
and the INFJ woman tend to communicate in a calm
and understanding manner, there’s something about
the way they project these traits that makes them
entirely different. For instance, the INFJ woman
is able to vocalize their empathetic understanding
to those they are trying to help while despite
being similarly empathetic in their thinking,
the INFJ man often finds it challenging to show
their inner understanding through words and
instead choose to later show their understanding
through actions. When talking to an INFJ woman,
you can usually sense their empathy through
their body language, their caring replies,
and their attempt to brainstorm a solution.
exactly show their empathy on the outside,
their thoughtful problem-solving actions later
down the line, showing that they not only care,
but that they actually took the time and energy
to magically fix the communicated problem.
Both the INFJ man and woman have difficulty when
it comes to conveying their thoughts into words.
Despite sharing this innate struggle, similar
to the differences that come through the way
they communicate their empathy, the INFJ man
and woman show a unique contrast in the way
they express their introverted intuitive ideas.
Whether it be through offering someone advice,
explaining their understanding on certain topics,
or unleashing their wild imaginations to a
trusting ear, the brains of two INFJ subtypes
take a different approach. For the INFJ woman,
communicating their vast ideas usually comes
in the form of narrating their own personal
experiences and those of others in order for the
other person to properly relate to the underlying
message. They tend to incorporate emotional
nuances and anecdotes to make even the most
serious of thoughts seem more lighthearted.
structured and logical presentation of their
thoughts. Instead of ‘beating around the bush’,
they take a more direct and less emotional
abstract concepts and theories to properly
If you know anything about the INFJ personality
type, you’ll know that they’re often referred
to as being both detail oriented and big-picture
thinkers. While it may seem contradictory to some
degree, they have a unique ability to zoom
in and out of certain dynamics in order to
accurately understand every angle. However, when
it comes to the INFJ man and woman, one tends to
be better at focusing on the big picture while
the other has a more detail orientated approach.
Can you guess which is which? Well, for the
INFJ woman, being more attentive to the minor
details and nuances tend to be her strong suit.
They meticulously pick up on unspoken feelings
through body language, the minor slip-ups in
one’s story, the miscalculations of a project,
and the step-by-step necessities of larger tasks.
Meanwhile, for the INFJ man, focusing on the big
to certain relevant details when necessary,
but for the most part, they rather hover over
an idea to see the picture as a whole. This
allows them to come up with new ideas easily while
remaining strongly motivated by the end result.
For the INFJ man, living in a world influenced by
masculine expectations can be extremely difficult.
They’re expected to suppress their innate
sensitive, nurturing, intuitive energy for
a more dominant self, without questioning the
repercussions. In fact, this challenge felt by
most INFJ men is a common topic amongst the INFJ
community. However, what’s not always talked about
is the similar experience INFJ women have when
it comes to expressing their innate character
traits. With a rather rational, direct, and
assertive approach, the INFJ woman is seen as
being rather detached and unapproachable. Taking
on a more masculine demeanor at times, they too
understand what it’s like to not fit in with those
of the same gender. While this may be considered
more of a similar than a difference, ironically,
the INFJ man and woman wouldn’t be able to relate
to each other's approaches to life but in the
opposite context as the average man and woman.
The INFJ personality type is known to approach
relationships with caution. It takes them a long
time to open up, and even longer to show their
true feelings towards another. When it comes
to the two genders, however, there’s another layer
of relational characteristics that come into play.
While the INFJ woman may take a long time to open
up, once they do, they’re known to slowly decrease
their need for significant alone time due to the
fact that they simply want to be around their
partner every chance they get. They strive for
close emotional ties while still understanding the
importance of supporting one another’s individual
growth. For the INFJ man, prioritizing a sense of
independence is a non-negotiable, especially when
their partnership is thriving in the background.
Similarly, INFJ women typically offer more verbal
reassurance and emotional support while the INFJ
man utilizes his creative problem solving skills
to offer practical help through action-taking.
