oh god i loved this show. sorry, not sure on type. the main character, Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling), looks like blackburry though.
(right)
maybe a saint is just a dead prick with a good publicist
maybe tommorow's statues are insecure without their foes
go ask the frog what the scorpion knows
Piper.. maybe IEE?
Alex (her ex).. LII
Took me a while to get into the show but then I was hooked. Looking forward to the next season.

Piper might be IEE, but some sort of Fi ego. The actual person who wrote the book imo is IEE.Originally Posted by silke
I think Alex is LSE.
Tasha - SLE
Red - SLI? LSE?
Harvey - LSI
Pornstache - LSI
Tiffany - EIE
I love Red. She's my favorite character.

Piper: EII-Fi
Alex: ExTx 8w7
Larry: SEI-ish
Red: LSE
my favorite is definitly Alex.
season 2 is out this friday
I just recently saw season 1 and love it. Out of all the characters Crazy eyes would be the type to have me on guard and possibly scared. heh
“My typology is . . . not in any sense to stick labels on people at first sight. It is not a physiognomy and not an anthropological system, but a critical psychology dealing with the organization and delimitation of psychic processes that can be shown to be typical.” —C.G. Jung
I have to chime in on this. First of all, in the prison, the ladies are definitely divided into victims/aggressors, though not the socionics meaning exactly. But there are self confident, sexually aware lesbians, who go after the more feminine ones who are not sure but are down anyway. I'm figuring this into my typing, though with my own personal logic.
Let's start with the duals:
Piper - IEI. actress doesn't look too IEI, but the character definitely is.
Alex - SLE. these two are SO duals.
Nicky - ILE, agree with you
Morello - SEI
Larry - LII.
Polly, mutual best friend - ESE. this became so clear after they hooked up in the second season.
Taystee (Tasha) - IEE
Poussey - maybe SLI? I want these two to be duals so bad, but I could see Poussey as an extraverted sensing type as well.
others~
Sophia - LSE or SEE, no objections
Suzanne - IEE, I can see that
John and Daya - ugh I hate their storyline, don't care to type. John is such a p***y.
Red - LSI
Pensawtucky - ILE
staff~
Mendez - LSE
Healy - EIE
Caputo - LSE
Figueroa - LIE
The new female prison guard with the big eyes - ESI
Piper - IEE
Larry - SEI
Alex - LSE
I'm going with IEI for Piper. Se > Ne valuing and Fe > Fi.
Lorna: SEI
the nun: EII
Caputo: LSE
Figueroa: LSI
What about Soso? She doesn't annoy me like she does the characters in the show.
Will think about other typings.

Agreed.
I re-watched the second season and believe I was wrong about some typings.
Mendez is LSI
Red is ILE. Confusing because the actress has that solid ST look. But then Vee calls her a "not a fighter, but a schemer." Also explains why Mendez was her nemesis for some time.
And completely sure of my typing of Larry and Polly. If you want to see a textbook example of how infantile/caregiver couples hook up, just watch them.
I have no firm opinions on their types, but I love the show. Red and Sister Ingalls are two of my favorites characters.
It wasn't because I related to her, because I don't. I can't justify those typings entirely because I only saw one episode and I don't remember much from it. It's possible.
I take back my previous typings. I think Piper is ESI and Alex is LSE.
...what is girly about it? You must have only seen like the first two episodes if that's the word you decided on to best describe this show.
I could see EII for John.
Yes.
okay, now that i've watched all of it, here are my typingssss (if you disagree, you are wrong):
Piper Chapman: Fi-ESI (actress is LSI i think)
Alex Vause: Ni-EIE
Nicki: Te-SLI
Morello: Fi-IEE (even her neurosis is typical of IEEs)
Red: Si-LSE? Ti-ILE?
Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren: Ne-IEE
Ms. Claudette: LSE/LIE not sure which <3 (best character in season 1)
Sophia: i'm actually not sure beyond Fi/Te
Mr. Healy: Fi-EII
Mendez: Se-LSI
Bennett: Te-LIE (yes this is what most LIE males are like)
Taystee: Fe-ESE? Ne-ILE? one of those two
Poussey: Ti-LSI? i actually don't know. Fe/Ti introvert. (best character in season 2, hands down)
Pennsatucky: Ti-ILE (appropriately conflictor bad-guy for the gamma heroine)
Ms. Rosa: Se-SLE <3 (Mrs. Rosa + Morello could take over the world)
Vee: Ni-EIE (evillll subtype)
Big Boo: Se-SEE
Caputo: LSE? similar neurotic energy.
Brook/Soso: annoying fucking Fi-IEE
Daya: Si-SLI (worst character/storyline)
Susan: SEI? EII?
Electrical guy: Ne-ILE
Yoga Jones: Ne-IEE (there are way too many IEEs in this show and all of them are a little fucked up.)
the rest of the characters i don't really care about. Larry is possible LIE, piper's brother is possible SEI, his brother's girlfriend is possible SLE. umm so yeah.
Huh. Well, this is a far better typing for her than IEE, in any case. I can see where you're coming from here, but I would think ESIs would be a lot less likely to cheat and do some of the other fucked up things she did.
I can see where you're coming from here, too.Alex Vause: Ni-EIE
Nicki: Te-SLI
LOL. If so, I can't think of any I've known irl.Bennett: Te-LIE (yes this is what most LIE males are like)
Yeah.Poussey: (best character in season 2, hands down)
I could see Si dominance for her, but I'm not sure I buy strong Te or Te/Fi valuing.Daya: Si-SLI
I could sorta see him as Bennet's identical a weak-ass Se sort of way.Larry is possible LIE
What about the assistant warden?
Does anybody have any other input for Mr. Healy? I like him as a character, and have on a few occasions found it hard to understand the bad rap he gets from the inmates.
Lesbians, not necessarily women in general. I can't say that I agree with that part, but I think/hope that they are attempting to develop his character into something more. There have been obvious attempts at his trying to show the good parts of himself that weren't apparent at a first glance, and he is obviously still willing to help the girls - lesbian or not. The mail-order bride was probably a coping mechanism for loneliness. I find the way his wife treats him and his attempts to make the relationship work more disturbing than anything.
Haven't seen all of season 2, but Vee is EIE and Soso is IEE.
Piper's actress is so insanely ESI that it throws my typing of her off. She's obviously a 6, though.
I like Radio's typings, and his picture-containing post is specially suitable for being quoted.
I concur. Fi is strong in her. Her goal in life, to develop and particularize her interactions with people, which are an essential part of her nature and not a sort of "resource" in a more Fe-esque way. Even if they are damaging.
Piper Chapman: Fi-ESI (actress is LSI i think)
Yep. Steve Jobs in a woman's body. Dislike both the character and the actress.
Alex Vause: Ni-EIE
I disagree, even if I'm not sure which one is correct. She's too extroverted, social and emotionally expressive (including positive ones) when compared with an average Fe PoLR. Ep of some sort, I would say, excluding IEE.
Nicki: Te-SLI
Uhm, interesting. I had not thought beyond Fi ego. If her neurosis are typical of an IEE, this could explain one case I know IRL (although not so severe).
Morello: Fi-IEE (even her neurosis is typical of IEEs)
I love this character. I would pick up LSE; she's quite imaginative, but always in a practical way, no-nonsense so to speak. An example that LSEs can be awesome when they control their domineering trend (which is still present) and do not get obsessed with doing things by the book.
Red: Si-LSE? Ti-ILE?
Too damaged for being typed. Not sure.
Suzanne "Crazy Eyes" Warren: Ne-IEE
No idea.
Ms. Claudette: LSE/LIE not sure which <3 (best character in season 1)
Not sure. Fi-SEE?
Sophia: i'm actually not sure beyond Fi/Te
Here I disagree. He's a softcore delta ST, but still ST. He's interested in people (due to his work, which he values even if not fulfilling), but has a Te mindset, not Fi. Probably SLI due to Fi-HA and too quiet and laissez-faire behavior for an EJ, or even IJ,
Mr. Healy: Fi-EII
Totally.
Mendez: Se-LSI
Will comment later.
Bennett: Te-LIE (yes this is what most LIE males are like)
The first one. Annoying ESE.
Taystee: Fe-ESE? Ne-ILE? one of those two
Could be, but Se is so weak that I'm considering Ti-LII. She seems though, but has troubles confronting others beyond exposing moral judgements. Quite unable to impose her will, and has certain idealistic naïveté.
Poussey: Ti-LSI? i actually don't know. Fe/Ti introvert. (best character in season 2, hands down)
She has conflicted, but not necessarily is her conflictor. Easily adopted and integrated religious worldviews even when she originally was not a believer. An ILE could fake beliefs in her own benefit, but hardly would change mind due to so ridiculous reasons. Could be, but I'm more inclined to some sort of beta NF. Maybe a particularly dumb EIE.
Pennsatucky: Ti-ILE (appropriately conflictor bad-guy for the gamma heroine)
Agree.
Ms. Rosa: Se-SLE <3
Agree, but not the same ennegram as Alex. 3w4 (here) versus 7w6 (or at least 3w2).
Vee: Ni-EIE (evillll subtype)
I'm more inclined towards Se-SLE.
Big Boo: Se-SEE
Could be.
Caputo: LSE? similar neurotic energy.
Extremely annoying, yes. The kind or "crazy newager" I would punch in her face.
Brook/Soso: annoying fucking Fi-IEE
But I think Ne-IEE could fit better. Quite energetic (enhaced Pe temperament) and more focused in her particular ideas, whatever they could be, than in her interactions.
Dont you like your [semi]dual?
Daya: Si-SLI (worst character/storyline)
Agree Si-SxI.
A bit more stiff and higher sense of duty than the average SEI. EII imo. A particularly likeable one.
Susan: SEI? EII?
Yep.
Electrical guy: Ne-ILE
LOL. Yes, Ne-IEE. Although not so annoying as Soso.
Yoga Jones: Ne-IEE (there are way too many IEEs in this show and all of them are a little fucked up.)
the rest of the characters i don't really care about. Larry is possible LIE, piper's brother is possible SEI, his brother's girlfriend is possible SLE. umm so yeah.
About Larry and Bennet, I'm a bit surprised about LIE typings. Both seemed LII to me, bennet more Ij-ish and Larry more Ep-ish, or even ILE. They do not fit in my "mental image" of LIEs (which would be closer to Figueroa).
But it is true LIE is probably the type I have had more troubles upgrading from the MBTI times (or one of them). LIEs seem to be softened ENTJs (talking about archetypal description), less Se and less J. No few MBTI ENTJs are probably SLEs, LSIs, or LSEs.
I have never considered LIE for myself because I do not think I'm "worthy" (assertive enough), even if I could be sometimes domineering (much more than average Ne PoLRs) and I have certain "Se-HA desires" . But if they are actually LIEs, who knows...
Could you offer to me a real life example of an non assertive (like these characters) but clear cut LIE?

I pretty much agree with all of Radio's typings.
Piper Chapman: ESI (also mega E6)
Alex Vause: Ni-EIE
Nicki: Te-SLI
Morello: Fi-IEE seems to work, possibly E4
Red: LSE
Suzanne Warren: ILE… or maybe SLE, but only b/c she reminds me of a female ODB
Ms. Claudette: IXXj?
Sophia: EXXx
Mr. Healy: EII
Mendez: Se-LSI
Bennett: Te-LIE
Poussey: Fi/Te something
Pennsatucky: Ti-ILE
Ms. Rosa: Se-SLE
Vee: Ni-EIE
Big Boo: SEE/SLE
Joe Caputo: δ-ST?
Brook/Soso: Fi-IEE
Susan Fischer: Si-SEI
Joel Luschek: Ne-ILE
Yoga Jones: Ne-IEE
Natalie Figueroa: IEI?
Larry Bloom: LIE?
Howard Bloom: LSE
Polly Harper: LSI?

Ah, that guy. I remember him from the video about 3D-printing guns. I agree he's LIE, but I think he's still assertive (7w8 or 8). But he seems to be quite well balanced, therefore it's not so evident as in other cases. I was looking for something more in the line of an E6 LIE, which is the kind of LIE that Bennet could be if he's one.
Thanks anyway.
Interesting. Now that you mention this option, it's true she has quite similarities with Daenerys Targaryen, who is mostly typed as IEI (and I agree).
I will have to rethink my previous position of not considering LIE as a potential typing. I have no few similarities with the first one IRL, and when I'm in a friendly environment I tend to behave close to the second one (although more cynical)....
Bennett: Te-LIE
...
Larry Bloom: LIE?

I have actually really grown to love crazy eyes, she just needs lots of reassurance. The following are mostly guesses without much consideration.
Piper I though ESI
Alex EIE/SLE sort of see both
Crazy eyes IEE Ne
Red LSE
Yoga Lady IEE
Workshop dude SLI
Ex druggie emotional go to lady SLI
Italian stalker lady IEE Fi
Tasty SEE
... will come back to this after i watch some more... need my fix, so into this
Now this is a story all about how, my type got changed, turned upside down. Just wait for a minute and watch chatbox right there, & I'll tell how Gem became the moderator with blue hair.
In typology central friended and praised, on the picture thread was where she spent most her days. Chilling out, selfies, relaxing all cool, And all typing some people and getting them schooled.
When a couple of girls who were up to no good, Started annoying her & her friends in the forumhood, She got in one little flame war & got pissed off & said 'I'm moving in with that exboyfriend in the forum with the socionics toffs.
So Gem pulls up to the forum for a year without being a hater, And yells to typocentral 'Yo creeps! Smell Ya later', Became a mod in her kingdom she was finally there, To sit on her throne as the mod with blue hair.

I don't get where so many people are getting ESI for Piper... She seemed infantile EII to me.. Anyone care to point out few examples of why Se> Ne... And why Ne PoLr over Se PoLr? Muchos gracias.
(I also thought actress was LSI from interviews... Seemed to dig Fe)
Haven't caught any of season two....
Lol... Piper makes someone masterbate for a blanket..?
It is true her Se seems a bit subdued. Not intimidating, agressive or too domineering, but the overall character behaves as a whole closer to ESI than EII (most people have in mind Fi-sub when they're typing her).
Being the constant victim of her EIE girlfriend machinations makes her to look a bit naïve, but this is not close to the Se PoLR kind of idealizations (detachment from present-time and sensory reality). If you compare the "strongest EII" (~E1) with a soft ESI variant, you cant still observe that the EII mind usually orbits around a certain ideal, abstract concept or non tangible purpose in life, whereas the ESI does not. She lives pretty much for interacting with people here and now, so to speak. And even if she's not an Se master, she has still enjoyed being a sort of dominating woman when she has been able to and definitely is not conflict avoidant. Two aspects much more uncommon in EIIs (specially the first one).
Her sexuality (kind of sexuality, not amount of sexuality) seems also closer to Se valuer. Although this is a weaker indicator.
By the way, the correct way of saying "thank you" in Spanish is "muchas gracias", with an a. Sorry for correcting you, but as my mother tongue is not usual here, I felt as I had to point this.
Maybe.
K.

piper: Se-ESI 6w7 sx
