    Default Recognizing Se/Ni vs Ne/Si

    What do you think are the most obvious signs of valuing Se/Ni vs Ne/Si?

    When observing or talking with someone, what sticks out to you as the most obvious indicator[s] of one or the other?

    But Ni/Se can also be charming. And Ni/Se isn't always serious and edgy. I think one obvious indicator (to me) is democratic vs. aristocratic. Ne/Si always seem to be very inclusive, even with their body language. They draw people in, welcoming anyone who happens to be standing nearby. Whereas there are some moments when Ni/Se can kind of pull away from the group or differentiate themselves in a particular way, depending on the circumstances. They can be more exclusive.

    But Gamma is democratic and Ni/Se. Or were you only referring to Beta?

    Aristocratic means ethics are paired with intuition, and democratic means logic is paired with intuition

    And Silly and Charming is for the Fe/Ti spectrum, and "serious" business and edgy relates more to Fi/Te, hence merry and serious.

    I put a few lines up on wikisocion that states that Decisive people tend to make decisions quickly on a small piece of evidence, how it says Ni types survive in situations where information is scarce, so they're more influenced to decide. Judicious people are more inclined to build a profile about a decision, gather everything they need, before they come close to making an official decision. They're also more inclined to not see how obvious the situation has turned into, because they regard the evidence as not substantial enough.

    I look at the judicious/decisive dichotomy. I'm not that sold on the Reinin dichotomies but I think this one works.

    From Wikisocion:

    Judicious (Si/Ne valuers)
    • Accumulate a vast amount of information into consideration before making an official decision
    • Less convinced to finalize a decision based upon (even a strong piece of) external evidence
    • Natural state is relaxed
    • On work, usually prefers satisfying working conditions to salary and other rewards
    Decisive (Se/Ni valuers)
    • Make decisions based on a little bit of information
    • More easily influenced to decide upon (even a small piece of) external evidence
    • Natural state is mobilised
    • On work, usually prefers salary and other rewards to satisfying working conditions

    decisives strive to impress, judiciouses seek enjoyment.

    I traveled through europe with an ILI friend and he wanted to see all the best sites and go to all the best restaurants, while I just wanted to see what was easy to find and eat whatever was nearby.

    Oh, I see. Well I don't hate the video. I think it's ridiculous, but in such a... dry? odd? [something]... way that it's just kind of amusing. Scanily-clad women with power tools, the stats for which are shown onscreen, while a techno version of "Satisfaction" plays? It's kind of amusing, yeah.

    Why do you think it's distinctively Se/Ni?

    This is an explosion of Si/Ne:



    We love this shit. See how comfortable it makes you? Controlled, wonderful environment. Just looking at Ian Anderson makes me happy.

    P.S.-This is only the first like 10 minutes of a 45-odd minute song I wish lasted all day. There's like a 6:08 version (complete) as well, but I just put up the first video of this guy I could find with this song.

    I'm being mean to you lol

    But idk.. The song seems.. very... idk... I really like the tune and the sound of the song, but I don't like the focus of the lyrics or the video.

    Probably aristocratic. Probably Beta.

    *Also, that first movie is a gamma explosion.

    I think a lot of the video is carried on Ne, though.

    Maybe that's why Yake doesn't like it

    lol That's definitely the best way to get to an alpha NT. Brutally hammer out all forms of Fe, then uncomfortably destabalize Si. Ouch.. Sorry Jake, you brought it up.

    Well, because it's combining two totally opposite things to make something new and interesting.

    Business and dry statistics with sex and desire, combined together for MAXIMUM LULZ.

    Also, AvB is ESE. All his songs are about Fe, especially relationships. Also check out Above and Beyond, their lyrics have an internal monologue bent, and I think one of the guys is a SEI.

    Speaking of SEI, ATB

    Check out his vid "What About Us"

    That's so static I think I'll have to call it whatever the fuck you imagine the damn thing doing.

    Granted, I don't like it. I think it's actually Alpha, you Fe-seeking piece of Ne ENTp.

    The bottom line is that Si/Ne is abuot creating a comfortable environment.
    Se/Ni is about creating an explosive environment.
