    There's never really been any challenges.

    I self-type as INTp, but in many IRL circumstances I imagine I may come across as INFp, ISFp or ESFj. In the online socionics community I come across as INTj or ISTp to some people.

    As far as I know, SEE is the only type people here seem to think I may be if not IEE.

    I get a lot of INTp, which would be the benefactor to INFj.

    you seem more LII to me....just based on the few interchanges we've had. *shrugs*

    I find that if someone challenges my type, there is usually some sort of inconsistency, so I find that the types are often different (because, in these cases, the person often does not have a good understanding of socionics). However, if there was a type that I think would make sense as an alternative, I would think either EII or ILE, because of my subtype.

    few people challenged my self-typing and I guess the only things anyone who's not stoned or mentally disturbed could think about would be my Look-alike, my Comparative, my Beneficiary, and my Activity.

    Other than LII, most common is EII (look-a-alike), followed by SEI (activity), then ILE (mirror) and ILI (quasi-ID)

    There's a camp of people who type me IEE, another camp who type me ESE, one person suggested SEE once upon a time but has since conceded that alpha SF is "perfect", and a few other oddball typings that dont particularly resonate for one reason or another.

    I cannot comment on your type, but I must praise your choice of avatar. It looks suspiciously like a depiction of bestiality.

    I gathered typings like stamps over the course of the past year or so. And it's a pretty impressive collection.

    Superficial typings (first impressions, vibes that I give off, typings from people that I
    don't regularly interact with or don't know me that well): ILI, EIE, EII, IEI, IEE, LII, LIE (I don't even want to know about the LIE one, honestly- Was on a discord server)
    Typings from people that I have actually opene
    d up to and spent some time knowing: xNFx (all of them)

    I think the sprea
    dsheet on here had an "ESI" right there on my tab as well, haha.

    I tend to get typed as ILI by other people using VI, aka phototyping, because I tend to show my face in a neutral "german passport" expression style on selfies — for some people a sign that I'm -PoLR.

    I don't believe anyone has ever challenged my typing. Can't see how anyone would see me as anything but an SLI 6w5. I can see my subtype and variants challenged but that's it.

    My main doubts of the past were between LSE/LSI. It's not rare when people say that suppose LSI by my forums communications. Without nonverbal it's easier to mistake.

    Taking that you are on the forum for significant time, you've noticed the speculativity of methods and low typing matches, hence it's evident that people may easily doubt in your opinion about type of someone, including about own type.

    As you ignore this evidence, - you oppose to Te, what points that you more probably have F type. For example, SEI, what is close. Was glad to help you see that "how".

    Yes I'm well aware people that have the ability to doubt anything at all. Thanks for pointing that out, truly an awakening for me on understanding the human mind.

    To spell out what I meant, I don't see how someone can 'earnestly' interact with me and come to the genuine knowledgeably conclusion that I am not SLI. Of course anyone can jump to some dumb conclusion like "wowie this guy says he's SLI but he used emojis in his post? So freaking Fe bro, no way" such as you in your post just now. I'm not refering to dumb shit like that. But yes I admit people can do dumb shit like that but besides for you I've haven't encountered such a superficial challenge to my typing.

    Most people should, to be honest. I've heard SeFi, NeTi, TiNe, and for myself against myself, my personal favorite is SiTe. That one is easy to defeat though, assuming Si cares about the rotting food in my fridge.

    An optimist - does not get discouraged under any circumstances. Life upheavals and stressful events only toughen him and make more confident. He likes to laugh and entertain people. Enters contact with someone by involving him with a humorous remark. His humor is often sly and contain hints and double meanings. Easily enters into arguments and bets, especially if he is challenged. When arguing his points is often ironic, ridicules the views of his opponent. His irritability and hot temper may be unpleasant to others. However, he himself is not perceptive of this and believes that he is simply exchanging opinions.
