Hi guys. I've been lurking for awhile, finally registered. I'm E6w5. I get bored at work and come here to read typing threads. Socionics/MBTI/Enneagram is kind of an embarrassing hobby of mine. Why won't it leave my brain?

Welcome welcoooome. It's good to have some Si around ;~;
Cool *^* We have a bunch of sixes on here. Counterphobic or phobic?
Lmaoo MBTI is an embarrassing hobby. Socionics and enneagram, that's the real deal ok no need to be ashamed
I believe I'm phobic. Yeah, MBTI is the gateway drug, Socionics and Enneagram are the next step.
I think my stacking is So/Sp/Sx.
Welcome... I think SEIs are underrepresented.
What does contraflow mean?
Edit: Nevermind, I looked it up. Dang. That is intense.
Hello! We have a few Si-doms here, but none of them want to call themselves that since that's not considered cool, generally. The reasons it's not considered cool are sort of ridiculous and cringeworthy, so maybe if you are completely awesome, more people will want to self-type as Si and we'll have a more accurate representation of both Ni and Si here instead of Ni being the paragon of mankind and Si being the dreck. (All functions are equal, just different guys ) So please stay, but I'll warn you that this site is funded though anything you post here being sold to multinational corporations (including your "private" messages), and the site owner has a bit of an interesting history in addition to having rather bad taste in fonts generally.
Since when is it uncool to be the (semi-)dual of Robert Downey Jr HUH
Said admin has more or less admitted to reading PMs, so I'd just be careful. And mostly Google it seems, but possibly others.
How do you not always like your Si? I know it's extremely unpopular in typology communities but it seems like the kind of thing that's rather popular in real life (which just shows the general disconnect between typology communities and real life imo).
Well, mostly dwelling too much on past mistakes and failures... Hard to motivate myself to try new things and overcome obstacles.. It's easier to maintain the status quo, which is not always good. Sometimes I can't even understand why people would want to change things, especially if the issue seems trivial to me.
Interesting. Isn't Si supposed to be a dynamic element? Maybe I just have a bad understanding of what dynamic and static are.
This is the last thing I have to say on sort of public opinions of Si, but if you say "I don't get along with X, please help" in a post it seems 99% of the time, people will try to type them Si-ego and often Si-lead on this site :/ I have a post back from when I was a total newbie who was rather naïve and dumb about socionics and people were typing an obvious LII as Si-lead because I was having some issues getting along with her, and that's nowhere near the only case I've seen of that.
Lol yes, you are right, Chae. Si is good. I'm sorry I talked it down. Maybe I'm still caught up in MBTI Si.
@auhin Exactly, especially through sensory bias. I don't see the point of it. Equal functions, equal types.
On top of that: without Si, we'd all be dead after 3 days hehe. Except Bear Grylls with his Si PoLR lmao
