    "Subtype extrapolations(and the resulting intertype effects) should only account for reproducible sociotype pecularities."

    Can you elaborate on this?

    1: There are multiple theories. The 2-subtype one is the current popular one.

    2: I consider subtypes to be minor in relationships, but more distinctive in differentiating between identicals.

    3. It doesn't matter. Batman is stupid.

    1 - There are multiple theories. Currently the 2-subtype one is the most popular.

    2 - Sometimes you can see the subtype through the grass as it goes out hunting in the morning, but usually gains speed and other drugs later on in the day to where there are no optical records of it even existing.

    3 - Probably not, which means I won't waste my time on it.

    Intertype relations don't officially consider subtypes, but if subtypes were accounted for, the gain should be explanations for recurring differences between relations. Creating hypotheses is misguided when we can compare the empirical data.

    And btw: There are different subtype systems, but most people use the 2-subtype system.

    All of the above, though the 2 subtype Accepting/Producing system is the most common, and the one I use almost exclusively. Anything more specific doesn't leave the necessary breathing room for people to be people, and can often be wrong as a result...

    Yep, and subtype's one of many ways of doing this

    Subtly, yes; the easiest example that comes to mind is the difference in my relations with Ne-ILEs as opposed to Ti-ILEs, I generally get along much better with the former...

    the socionics.com website has mentioned subtypes but with minimal effort. They do recognize the accepting/producing dicotomy. They have yet to actually produce an article that is meant to explain the difference.

    http://www.socionics.com/advan/qa.htm?1122150578 - this is a link to the socionics.com website (copy and paste it). The admin briefly clarifies the difference and alludes to the publication of a subtype theory in english but they have yet to make good on their word. My comment is "november 2, 2009. can't wait" so ya its been awhile.

    Subtypes differ in mannerisms, physical appearance, dress and social behaviour. They display distinctive behavioural traits in times when they are at their best and their worst. The wikionics.com website mentions a proficiency in either your dominant or auxiliary function (first or second function). In that regard you could notice slight differences when given similiar circumstances.

    Basically identicals may not appear identical unless they have the same subtype. That is an ESE-Fe appears identical with an ESE-Fe but an ESE-Si may not come across as having the same basic personality unless with another ESE-Si. So on and so forth for all 16 types.

    Personal example: I have two friends who are identical but different subtypes. I wouldn't consider them to be identical with one another. I actually find it difficult to consider them identical without resorting to subtype theory to explain the differences.
