    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    By what premises have you reached this conclusion, I dare ask.
    Moonlight will fall
    Winter will end
    Harvest will come

    I think your question would be easier to answer if it were more vague.

    I think many people scrutinize their body. To talk about it is just expressing that they do so. Maybe some types are more inclined to do that but don't bring it up.

    I was gonna tell you you're SLI. But I guess this is a good time. It has to do with noticing slight aesthetic variations and what effects of comfort and discomfort it has on one.

    I am Fe PoLR? Fi as Hidden Agenda?

    Umm, I think I have a very poor sense of comfort and aesthetic harmony.

    An SEI friend of mine thinks he's on the plump side compared to most people at his comparative height. He's 6ft and ~150lb (aka not plump). I think it's his way of expressing guilt for recklessly pursuing pleasure, because it sure doesn't last long before the debauchery begins again

    Well, being hedonists they are quiere aware of the concept of liking and disliking stuff. And they apply it to themselves. Oh, nothing worse than a SEI who dislikes him/herself...

    Myself, I adore SEI women. They are usually chubby but in the "delicious" way. Lots of curves everywhere...

    I know, it's odd to me. I have an SEI friend who looks at herself every day and one who looks at her breasts and admires them and the other who has been talking about a breast job for a year.

    I talk about my SEI brother's body more than he does.
