No but thats not whats in question. Sure people may share similarities, this isn't about that. It's about the labels we define people with, blonde is an easy label to define you look at the color of the hair and that is it. Socionics is another beast, your talking about summing up a number of complex behaviors in general concepts then using those concepts in a model thats complex, some behaviors are more dominant, some behaviors are less, some behaviors are creative, other producing, some static, some etc etc etc.... its a very complex system much more so than being blonde. In this system we have to question, what is the meaning of the final result, what is a type supposed to explain. Is it an exact measure of the person's behavior or is it merely a simplified model of a person's behavior. Just because two people are blonde doesn't mean they are the exact shade of blonde, maybe one has more tones of brown hair, the other of white, maybe one has dyed there hair, maybe another has aged and their hair has changed to white or gray. This information is pivotal when you are using socionics to approach a sense of human understanding, you can't look at people on the surface as merely blonde, sometimes there is real value in understanding what color lies at the root.
