Self-Identification

Jonathan Rauch: “[D]o you know someone who needs hours alone every day? Who loves quiet conversations about feelings or ideas, and can give a dynamite presentation to a big audience, but seems awkward in groups and maladroit at small talk? Who has to be dragged to parties and then needs the rest of the day to recuperate? Who growls or scowls or grunts or winces when accosted with pleasantries by people who are just trying to be nice?” [via MeFi]

When answering yes to these questions, is self-identification allowed?

My name is Richard, and I am an introvert.

I've never read an article more accurately describing myself. Great stuff. My name is Bill, and I'm an introvert.

Hi, my name is Wendy and I am an extrovert! I didn't read the article but I am an extrovert! Wow! And I think introverts are SO HOT. Mmmmmm.... delicious. Nice site.

Bill: you're an introvert, yes, but I happen to know for a fact that you're hot. Wendy: lemme introduce you to my friend Bill. Wendy, this is Bill. Bill, Wendy.
