    I think I said SLE or EIE in that thread but later deleted it because I choose none.

    “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 would like to try out to be a male e8 so/sp SLE or LIE as these are the only sociotypes which seem to fit organically with e8. So/sp because this is the heartbreaker stacking. I am just a broken fading flower, call me poppy.

    I have this lingering envy of sp/sx girls and how cat like and mysterious they seem to be. So i would be sp/sx. And a 7 fix would be cool. But wouldnt change my core type. Maybe to 3w2 subwing instead of 5w4 so i would feel less like an alien.

    Pretty sure the SuperEgo relation overrides this duality.


    I agree with a good 66% of what his videos said, minus the parts where he started bitching about "muh moral degeneracy" and whatnot. Let me tell you, the archives of his stuff aren't nearly big enough.

    100% agreed. He was very informative, the "spiritual"(?) stuff going on was another thing. His type comparisons were on point, I wish he would've done more on enneagram and instincts, there wasn't much, just the humorous skits

    Mh... sx/sp has greater superiority in a sense of not caring about social norms that much, it's self-ordained independence, freedom. I chose Sx/So because superiority depends on rank (which SLE is the master of) within a social context, sp gets taken care of by the sensing base (they may be Si ignoring but anyway). The point was broader impact. I pondered a lot about the wing but 9 seemed more reasonable, it lends greater focus and willingness to sacrifice which caters to Sx. All in all, SLE-Se 8 Sx is the #1 typological powerhouse in every regard, the 4D Fe types are the runner-ups imo I know two guys of that type, they come on so strong and just do their thing, it's fantastic.

    Being 8w9 sx/so is not superior. It's actually really bad. For many reasons. (I am an 8w9 sx/so which is why I asked.)

    I would like to be an extroverted version of myself, or alternatively, I would like to be my dual with the caveat that I retain all my previous experiences. I may place a higher value on continuing to have the essence of my personality but without any of the flaws I have (not necessarily flaws that are representative of my type).

    In general:
    ILI-Te So/Sp.

    Why? I can keep my , be more productive and accepted in career situations (my PoLR is typically looked down upon in a way), and climb the social ladder.

    Other than that:
    SEE 3w4 Sx/Sp (396) or
    ESI 9w8 So/Sx (946).

    I would be annoyed if my hard work to understand and untangle my current weaknesses was thrown away and I had to start all over again. Better the devil you know. Besides I rather like myself.

    That being said, some sort of 3/7/8 could be a nice change of pace.

    For enneagram I would probably pick 7w8 or 8w7 sp/sx/so
    LII-Ne with strong EII tendencies, 6w7-9w1-3w4 so/sp/sx, INxP

    I really don't want to be anyone besides who I am at all TBH. That's why I made the jokey post about how I'd be Batman, because I just can't seriously think about who I'd be since I really don't want to be someone else and I don't think it's actually logically consistent to change types. But you really don't like the idea of being ego unlike all these weak INxxs most people here?

    Well, if you want , which is the more really "perceiving" one, IEE is not the way to go since that's more about generating possibilities. If you want both intuitions xIx (rational intuitives, basically) are strong in both, especially with a contact/producing/"creative" subtype. Ixx are adept in both but they sort of actively ignore the devalued one unless it's necessary, while xIx will actively use the other, sometimes even all the time, but as a means to an end rather than an end itself.

    Honestly I do love being LII. I believe each type gives expression to something very profound and necessary. We each have all of the types within us.

    I wouldn't mind trying out an SLE persona for some time. Also, having IEI's as duals would be nice.

    If I could be any type, I would probably choose to be ILI, ILE, IEI, or SLI. I've known lots of SEIs, SEEs, and SLEs. I have known some really attractive IEEs. Maybe if I were one of those types, maybe I would have already found a stable dual partner. >.>

    sx/sp 6 is THE most volatile type.

    And please guys stop saying sx is "intense experiences". That's too general and can apply to many who aren't sx firsts. Sx is sexual, sexual and sexual.

    (SX): Besides the hunger for sex itself, this is the ‘need for heat’, the hunt for ‘electrical juice’, risky excitement and fevered decadence as a narcotic, pushing the envelope, the edge, seeking that peak something, simultaneously exposing oneself to total self-destruction. Also, ‘the World as a mating dance’, the compulsion to broadcast beautiful attractive ‘colors’, casting a net (or a pheromone) out for that special someone to complete an electrical circuit, a nose for the individualized scent of the soul we long to burn our imprint into, and they into ours. Chemistry, not intimacy. Involuntary attraction and repulsion. Archetypally, this Instinct rules the alchemical processes, transformation/transmogrification, base metals into gold, phoenix rising from the ashes, the wild-eyed shaman whirling in fire and blood and radical rebirth. Some authors have sought to tame this Instinct with new names, such as Intimate or one-to-one, butany attempt at reworking the Instinct into something wholesome/spiritual/romantic misses the mark: the Sexual Instinct is raw unbridled wanting, untethered by ethics/morality. Recklessness. A live wire longing to burn…and be burned to death. The classical image of Eros’s arrow (erotic attraction) shot through the heart accurately alludes to the danger here: potential ruin and destruction under the guise of Love.

    I'm sorry, but you literally just contradicted yourself by saying "Sx is only literally sex" followed by a bunch of stuff explaining how it isn't, including how it's actually death. We all know Sx is the feisting of life and the dance of death across the stage of the world, or else no one under the age of consent would (should) be Sx. Also, just getting laid is waaay too easy to be a good life's goal

    This question confuses me a bit. My gut reaction was LIE--so disciplined, so good at planning and accomplishing things, so ambitious--but then my dual would be ESI, and as I am actually an EII, I don't super get along with ESIs. But I guess the point is that I would, as an LIE. I like my instinctual stacking just fine, but might change my enneagram.

    So LIE 2w3 so/sx for me.

    Enneagram 2 is supposed to be the "helper". I find it hard to see an LIE as a primarily helpful person. LIE's are typically e8 or e3, FWIW, and my guess is that if you were LIE, you might not have much choice in that area.

    I actually do help some people, and it often appears that I'm doing it selflessly with no obvious benefit (and sometimes some apparent loss) to myself, but really, I'm driven by a need for efficiency. Seeing someone struggle with something awakens the urge in us to make things more efficient and streamlined by helping them do better, because efficiency makes the world go 'round for LIE's. And our apparent "giving" usually comes back to us in one form or another.

    And yes, you would also like ESI's. They can be hard to take at first, but the more I'm around them, the better I like them.

    When considering your choice of LIE as an alternate sociotype, you might want to consider the aberrations you might have to possess to want an ESI as your constant companion.
    I was just reviewing some notes I made while working with an ESI on some contractual artworks, and she was late with the deliverables, communicated minimally (but did communicate), went her own way constantly, was fairly eccentric, and she more than doubled her quoted price on the final work (I made the mistake of explaining to her how she needed to price her work for profit, and she did ), and I'd do it all over in a heartbeat just to work with her again.
    To me, working with an ESI is like opening the door to a shack and finding a palace inside.
    Duality, experienced in person, over time, is really something else.

    A smart SLE-Ti, not the faux Kill4Me bullshit, but a Hannibal kind of personality...but maybe with a little more compassion.

    Well if you´re extroverted you can´t decide if you should be influenced by some external factors or not. They are just there and you automatically feel forced to act on them regardless of wether it may or may not be beneficial for your own sanity or integrity over the long term.

    Good point, there's quite a downside to it as well. It's about choosing the lesser evil in this thread

    My second favorite would be my dual, the 6w5 sp/sx version. Would be nice to notice my surroundings more & be able to actually feel my body (I always forget I have one), better organization skills would also rock.
