Yes, I do think words are more sensing and for sensing types, no question about it. If they could just open up the palette..the mind, words can so be nothing!
Remember the lines of communication, eg non verbals? speaks absolute volumes for me..
Wasn't it Albert Mehrabian who said the total impact of a message is 7% verbal-words only, 38% vocal (tone, inflection etc), 55% non verbal.
Just as I type this I am wondering if this is why I have so much difficulty? utilising internet, written word, for a hefty iNtuitive, INFP that I am, accessing cyberspace is like grasping body parts under icey water with 4 fingers missing and trying to make a call on them.
Cyberspace is the best line of communication for which type?
We are the biological animal, a very bright and clever one, but an animal all the same, can you imagine the United Nations translations and misunderstandings! Different countries, cultures... The written word is so damn powerful but it is the human's least efficient form of communication. (No, that's not true, but I'm leaving it in anyway, on rethink.)
It aint easy.
I love the internet, cyberspace, it is a technological library, discovery and research centre for me... I just meant communicating with people can be.....challenging.
...and, just an article I found interesting; "Body language without the body:
situating social cues in the virtual world".. (transcript) Judith S. Donath
Body language without the body
