I'm wondering what the state of theory is at the moment regarding blinking and judging functions? Excessive blinking is supposed to be an Ne-Si thing, and it certainly seems true that Ni leads don't usually blink excessively, but this doesn't always seem to hold true for JeNi types. For example, both Neil deGrasse Tyson (FeNi) and Robert Downey Jnr. (TeNi) do quite a lot of blinking at times. Ni leads like Jane Goodall and Leonardo DiCaprio also exhibit spouts of excessive blinking from time to time, but to a much lesser extent, so I'm wondering if this could have something to do with Judging functions?
...i was preparing a thread where i talk also about this....
Yay! Is it still going to be a separate thread or will it be posted here now? If it is the former could you please post a link in this thread so I know it exists?
jh No i haven't posted anything yet (i want to write many things in the same post, not only about that), and here in the forum there's no thread about it, apart from a post where Erifrail (one of the "masters" here) explains that Ti can produce heavy blinking as well, but for me is only a J thing like you said in your post, and not correlated with Si anyway, welcome!

Glad to hear we're on the same wavelength here. I'm surprised no-one else has mentioned this up until now, since looking at videos of JeNis one can clearly see that there's something going on there.
I'm glad this came up, too, because after watching my own videos, I realized I blink a lot. I guess it can have something to do with being nervous, like was said in the thread on Kristen Steward (?).

Hey Heron! Could you send me in the direction of Erifrail's post on Ti heavy blinking?
I read Neil Gaiman earlier, who is a definite NiFe and yet also heavy on the blinking. I noticed in the NiFe Larin Series video that Morgan Freeman also does this thing where when he sidedrifts he blinks three times in rapid succession (this happens three times in the clip), which I also noted as an unusual signal from a Ni/Se. Neil Gaiman's blinking is much, much heavier though, including during his lock-on stares. Fascinated to know more about how Ti relates to this!
One thing I noticed is that I blink A LOT in my videos. But, I had just assumed that it was Ne/Si. This may or may not be the thread mentioned earlier: cognitivetype.boards.net/thread/283/blink
