I know I do. I don't just value it. I have it. It's better than my Se for god's sake. I also know I have Ti, because it clashes with my mother's and best friend's IEEness.

EIE, ENFj, intuitive subtype.
E3 (probably 3w4)
Cool ILI hubbys are better than LSIs any time!

Ezra, I've said this to you before, and at the risk of giving you yet more types 'thrown' in your direction, I still think you should consider ENTj or ENFj especially ENFj. Sorry Kristiina if somehow you don't want me to say thisbut I think yourself and Ezra seem quite similar in your postings, but thats not the only reason i'd lean towards ENTj but especially ENFj.
and I actually wanna comment this too. I would be fairly ok with seeing Ezra as an EIE. That would be a lot more acceptable than LSI UDP. Ezra is easily Beta and I remember I initially typed him as LSI and I don't accept anyone as my duals. It's easier to accept people as my identical.

Pull yourself together and realize that you are a LIE. This self-typing charade of yours has become ridiculous.
Of course it does. You clash with IEEs because they are less logical and less scientific than you are. I also clash with them, but the explanation is not that we are Ti ego types.Originally Posted by Ezra

Argue with others about the typing of UDP; not me. I originally thought UDP wasn't an LSI; it's only recently that people have made me think it might be a possibility. Kristiina, you don't know me, so you don't know I have Ni.
Seriously, this is nothing new. People have come up with Ni creative for me since I got here. But they saw Beta Extravert. At first it was EIE, then they thought SLE because of my apparently good Se. I've always seen LIE as a possibility, but no one has ever considered it until recently.
Yeah, but how do you know this?
Anyway, I must be good with Ni; I had a premonition a few months ago.
In my dream, McDonald's was getting really shitty business; it was on the verge of shutting down. Then a month later, the exact same McDonald's I walked into in my hometown, Macclesfield, shut down.

No joke, that actually happened.
I don't know what type Ezra is, but at this point I don't think LIE should necessarily be ruled out.
Ezra, correct me if I'm wrong, but I happen believe that you have a great respect for facts and empirical evidence. The indications for you being a LIE are many and they are strong, but the most striking empirical evidence for LIE is to be found in your signature. Take a close look at it, and think seriously about the information that is actually there in plain view for everyone to see, and what it actually means. Test results usually tell us something, and in your case they all point in the exact same direction.

"How could we forget those ancient myths that stand at the beginning of all races, the myths about dragons that at the last moment are transformed into princesses? Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage. Perhaps everything that frightens us is, in its deepest essence, something helpless that wants our love."
-- Rainer Maria Rilke, Letters to a Young Poet

You know what? You're an individual, and that makes people nervous. And it's gonna keep making people nervous for the rest of your life. - Ole Golly from Harriet, the spy.
False generalizations are bad, true generalizations are not bad. If I would say that everyone around here is homosexual, I would be making a false generalization. But I didn't do that. I didn't even say that IEEs in general are less logical and less scientific than some other type. What I actually did say was that IEEs are less logical and less scientific than Ezra, and that happens to be a true generalization as far as I can tell. At least I know for sure that there is no IEE in the whole world that is more logical and more scientific in his or her approach than I am myself. And I see some clear similarities in thinking and general approach between myself and Ezra, which probably is due to us both havingin our ego blocks.
Because Beta and Gamma fit me better than Alpha or Delta, and I put this down to my valuing or being proficient in Se, and because my entire life is based around achieving something worthwhile - getting a good job, making good money - with a constant eye on my future, especially the ways in which what I do now will affect me at a later date (this is primarily Ni valuing, but if I explain why I am Ni valuing as well as Se valuing, it gives a pretty good case for the fact that I'm Se/Ni valuing; not Ne/Si valuing).
The thing is, I never claimed I was tough. People put that name on me. I am loud around people, and they get annoyed; I'm renowned for my loudness, and my hearty laugh. I am unintentionally aggressive in my speech, and this is simply because I'm a very enthusiastic and energetic person; it's my way of expressing my energy. It's not some tough guy act I put on to impress others; this would be completely foolish. So, I'm not aggressive in the sense that I go around picking fights with everyone, but it comes through a lot in my speech, which indicates to others that I do have a lot of energy. As for the domination that I often attribute to myself, this is mainly a subset of my aggression levels. Because I'm so enthusiastic in argument and conversation, it looks like I'm vehemently attacking people, but in reality, I just get fuelled from debates with others. It's true, I can be a very bad listener, and I love to put my view across, which makes people think I am further attacking them in some way, which is why I often make a conscious effort to be enthusiastic about their opinion or point of view by saying "hmm, that's actually really interesting; I haven't considered that before".
Do you understand now what I mean about being loud, dominating and aggressive? Of course it's based around others' perceptions of me. That's why I told you when I first came here. It's not that I can't think for myself, or because I wanted to big myself up in some way, it's just that I wanted you to get a good picture of how I am in real life.
Obviously, I am physically a weakling, and my figure can look womanly. My strength is in my willpower, my mindframe, and my energy, so I concentrate on this. I don't need a big, buff, muscular body to go with it. I've had a lot of fights with others at school, more than most people in my year actually; I wasn't picked on, but the bully victim would attack me, because he knew I was one of the weakest people. I either beat him (sometimes because of his low morale* (no one liked him), sometimes because everyone would pile in and finish him off while I walked off feeling "all that"), or it was a draw (end of break ("recess" to you Americans), it was broken up by a member of staff or by a sixth former). I fought a few others, and never lost as such.
Generally, yes.
*Once, the crowd of people surrounding one guy and myself actually made him cry, and he wanted to shake hands, so I did so, despite the goading: "HIT THE FUCKER! FINISH HIM OFF!".
