I would think most AS guys are more mature, if anything.

Is "socially developed" a euphemism for being a pop-culture sheep?

Maturity is being self-reliant, and confident with who you are and where you're going in life, being able to move forward, and accepting other people rather than judging them. And most importantly, it often means putting other people before yourself. This may apply to some AS guys, but not most. I'd have to say the NTs are more mature as a rule.
