    Default examples of "the feel" of a Si leading type

    I'm looking for clear Si leading examples that most (or at least a lot of people) would know, such as TV or movies characters or celebrities.

    Since the idea is to make a list of people who have the look/feel/vibe/aura/whatever of a Si leading type, we should stick to characters who are so clearly Si leading that they must be played by a Si leading type as well. (Make sense?)

    So... who do you think has the "feel" of a Si leading type? Please post examples with pics.

    Perhaps Harrison Ford in the Indiana Jones series?

    Indy's image is a more Se focused, don't you think?
    But, for a certainty, back then,
    We loved so many, yet hated so much,
    We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...

    Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
    Whilst our laughter echoed,
    Under cerulean skies...

    Indiana Jones is a good example of ISTp. His career of acquiring facts through books, artifacts and his adventurism is a sign of Te. An Se type might be the one demanding for the artifacts for their museum, or something like that

    You probably took it out of context. That is probably his Fi HA if you consider the whole situation.

    nah, i think Ezra's right. Indy's main purpose in the series was always to bring back the artifacts to a museum. his obsession was clearly defined in the last movie where at 16 he fought thieves for some ancient Christian artifact claiming they belonged to a museum.

    That's a tendency better suited for Te rather than Se.

    Obsessing is less likely to do with type because of different competence between the same type.

    My typing is not resistant to change though.

    Kevin spacey is probably an example of Si.


    Ive read in different places that he might be ISTj or EStp, but from interviews I get the feeling of his creative Fe

    poor choice of words on my part. i guess you could call it a tendency. it wasn't meant as a psychological problem.
    anyways, Indy wants the artifacts to be in museums where they can be studied and preserved. i never mentioned Se.

    yeah.. i wasn't sure if alicia was an ESFj?

    Si dominants, I actually don't see as calm, but very reactive/sensitive to their surroundings. For example, I know some of you don't think Angelina Jolie is an ISTp, but currently I do. She has the same sort of quick, almost fragile looking "shaking" way about her. I am not sure if this is something that is related to certain Si dominants, like ISFps, though.

    Another type of Si dominant would be a slow moving one. They also have i dunno.. distinct "squrming" movements.. Christina Ricci is a good example.

    I was thinking more of his characteristic slow, monotone speech and down-to-earthness. It seemed like he just "fell into" adventures without seeking them out, simply because he like old stones and artifacts. He was by far my favorite movie character in childhood. Very individualistic, very wry, yet simple and sincere. Sure, the character had some other traits injected into him that weren't totally SLI, but overall the actor and the image fit together very successfully.

    Just a everyday typical supervisory relation, ISTp fed up with listening to ENTj talk.

    Despite the aggression, notice the overall lower energy usage.

    For a 43-year-old woman, she looks very good.

    I think she's either an ENFp or INFj. I think most people think INFj but I'm not convinced at all that she isn't ENFp. Infantile anyway.

    I think Mitch Hedberg is a really good example of an Si leading type. His humor is all about chilling and having a good time.

    I think you're right. I'm also inclined to prefer INFj to ENFp, but it's more of an impression -- I can't think of any good argument for INFj > ENFp.

    In fact, in that picture with Harrison Ford she looks like a skinnier version of an ENFp woman I worked with for some time.

    Ugh. She just looks breakable. Actresses seem to start out healthy-looking and then as they age, get that fragile, brittle look to them. I'm not sure why that's attractive.
