What about linear and integrated? What about ranges of variation? Authoritarian and social? Certain and uncertain?

Can [wo]man live by dichotomy alone?

Earlier this year Kathryn McCamant mentioned some stats on Myers Briggs
personality types. It is interesting to see how different cohousing
people are to the general US population:

Extrovert 75% in US - 48% in Cohousing
Introvert 25% in US - 52% in Cohousing

Sensor (interested in details) 75% in US - 10% in cohousing
Intuitors (big picture people) 25% in US - 90% in cohousing

She didn't mention the split on the other two Myers Briggs dichotomies
(Thinking/Feeling + Judging/Perceiving).

does cohousing attract "a certain type of person"? Or is the benefit of
community precisely the diversity of personality types?
