This is interesting, and I would like some concrete examples of this if it's possible. Being 1D Fe types, I have found that XLI's are generally unaware of how they are feeling in terms of emotion, and it is a place that is vulnerable for them so even if they are actually feeling a certain kind of way it won't be uncommon for them to deny it, not realize it, or not want to engage with that emotion. I dont believe their emotional assessments of themselves to be reliable in times of stress.

Now, this idea of Fe types being entitled to forcing an emotional connection and expression, what does that mean? I dont know what it looks like, and I am curious as to how that compares with types such as XEE's who have Fe demonstrative. Also, other than the examples, which is the main focus of this post, I am also curious if this extends towards all Fe valuing types regardless of Enneagram. Is it a an essential property of Fe to force emotional interaction and connectivity?
