What if we misrepresented who extroverts are? It would be easy enough to assert the following things about extroverts:
- Extroverts crave attention and only shout, "I love you all" when they enter a room because they want to be the center of attention.
 - Extroverts prefer flitting around a large group of people because in those situations they can avoid meaningful interactions that might require giving another human being a little of their time.
 - Extroverts force their opinions on others, and won't explore ideas with anyone else.
 - Extroverts resent introverts when we won't submit to having the life sucked out of us.
 - Extroverts are shallow and insincere. And loud.
 
"There is zero correlation between being the best talker and having the best ideas." 
- Susan Cain, The Power of Introverts
"Touché," said the introvert who has had to learn to socialize for a living. Well stated!
