It's really nice to know my POLR can be seen in a positive light, so thanks for that!! Normally I feel a lot of shame around my
. I always hoped someone would see it at least as a likeable quirk that allows me to be more fun or free-spirited, even if I'm not as efficient as ExTj types >.<
So that's kind of like you said, the POLR can be a certain kind of freedom or liberation. Actually I like to think about this subject lots, especially when it pertains to my dual.
POLR in ILEs looks like a very appealing type of freedom. I remember before I even found Socioincs, I'd try to explain to myself and others that I wanted a partner who "didn't care about how other people feel, but also had good intentions and didn't mean any harm"
Lol, looking back on it I think I was just describing Fi POLR. Not worrying about whether or not they make someone else emotionally uncomfortable underneath allows them to ignore societal restrictions in favor of innovation or exploration.
As for SLEs,
POLR gives them the freedom to just do 'whatever works' even if it's widely disliked by those around them.
Looking at LIEs and EIEs, I think it's clear that the
POLR can be very freeing in that they don't suffer as much under physical discomfort. They seem free to pursue whatever plans they prefer, no matter how straining it might be.
is only a problem for them when their lack of attention to their state results in injury, and less personal effectivness as a result. However, it seems like most of them learn how to take better care of themselves as soon as it becomes absolutely necessary. Until then, they're unstoppably productive, and that's definitely a kind of freedom.
