I did not and it probably would have never occurred to me if I had not read that many people did and that many Ts promote it also. I could accept their authority as an expert of psychology if they demonstrated that sort of knowledge/skill, like a consultant or a specialist doctor, but relative to me? No, it just does not make any sense in my personal world. I also have ever seen a very few people as authority figures in my life (other than forced workplace hierarchy), not even my parents so much beyond teenage years. My first T tried to play the authority game but I boldly rejected it. I have never been someone who liked/needed authority much in an emotional sense. I very much like when people challenge me in smart/useful ways, but that still does not create authority.
