Coping With Labels

Deskripsi

Are you Type A or Type B? (Justice for Type C !)Maybe the label you’ve given yourself feels grounding (and that’s okay!). Maybe it’s limiting – something you’ve been trying to shake off..? Or maybe you’ve turned a label into a sort of playbook, a personality shorthand we were never really meant to rely on.This week, Alice Griffin and Jannah Anderson dive into self‑imposed labels – dissecting the logic of Myers-Briggs and comparing their own Enneagram results as they unpack the universal urge to categorise ourselves. And can you ever truly shake off a label once it’s been culturally assigned… sometimes en masse? (Raygun made peace with hers two years post-Olympics – and you probably would too with Sammy Sex in your corner).TikTok’s Obsessed With “Type A” and “Type B” Personality Types - Here’s Why by Keyaira Boone, CosmopolitanThe Carl Jung Quote You’ll Love Based on Your Myers-Briggs Personality by Susan Storm, Psychology JunkeeWhy Myers-Briggs Is Totally Useless - But Wildly Popular by Anna North, New York TimesTo Promote Inclusivity, Stay Away From Personality Assessments by Quinisha Jackson-Wright, New York TimesMindfulness by Dr Ellen LangerThank You For Smoking: How Big Tobacco Created the ‘Type A’ Personality MythUncertainty-identity theory Hogg, M.A, in Advances in Experimental Social Psychology, Vol. 39Schema Theory in Psychology by Charlotte Nickerson, Simply Personality Isn’t Permanent by Benjamin HardyAll I Ever Wanted Was To Be Hot by Lucinda Froomes PriceThe Psychopath Test by Jon RonsonUntold: Raygun Breaking Badly, NetflixWant to support our show?
