Yeah, that whole deal did sound off to me, though I think enneagram could explain some of the second quote. However, pinocchio is pretty much dismissive of any sociotype/enneagram complications.
SEIs ime aren't 'quick to anger' but I do think they can be direct and violent if they need to be. That said, I don't get the ambivalent defensiveness against animals he's talking about. I think animals are waaaaay easier to get than people.

Pinnochio is weak as hell, trying to tell me how to think. Just that eliminates him from dual contention.

Hello, my name is Bee. Pleased to meet you .
I actually really like Pinocchio. Anyway, sheep, another poster pointed out that other parts of the world may have less taboos against physical violence than Sivillized Western nations. Heck, even amongst the West there's variations on acceptable violence. Compare Australia to America, and then even American states.
Plus, I think a girl would be exposed to less anti-violence conditioning as they grew up, since they (typically at least) are probably a lot less able to cause meaningful physical damage than a man. A medium built male can really cause some damage. I speak from experience, having been a fairly easily enraged youth; I got into a lot less trouble getting into fights with other boy than when I managed to strike a girl (total accident, people were trying to restrain me because I was about to run after some fucked up little shit who was throwing rocks at me and laughing his fucking little ass off, I was flailing my arms to get them off me, and yeah. Take note that these people were behind me, and I couldn't see who they were).
For the record I would like that little bastard to grow up so I can punch his lights out. And I still think Pinocchio is ILE.
EDIT
And to be frank, sheep, it's kind of ridiculous associating being physically violent with Se ego. What the hell man? Why does Se make you a brute?
Your authority complex is showing. I see you agree with nearly Everything Pinocchio is saying but for some reason I'm the one making ridiculous associations? Go defend your buddy somewhere else.

You think I agree with nearly everything Pinocchio says? That's really a sad misrepresentation of the truth. I'd like you to calm down and think about what of what Pinocchio says that I have actually agreed with, verbally. Quantify before jumping on vague and meaningless qualifications like "everything".
You know, a lot of the time I don't agree with what Ephy says. But just because I'm willing to let people say what they want and discount it as nonsense in silence, does not mean that I agree with them in the least. Do you understand this?
Anyway, you are making a truly ridiculous association between Se and being physically violent. That's like saying being a brute is type-related, and then you're already using Socionics to form groups of "lesser human beings".
I'm not picking sides here, so relax. I'm not playing for "Team Pinocchio", though I guess I'm more willing to let him be wrong 60% because it just isn't worth arguing with the man and 40% because I like him and he makes me giggle a bit sometimes.

Not to argue whether Pinocchio's girlfriend is SEI or not, but, I don't know them to anger quickly either unless pushed to the extreme limit. My mother is SEI E9 and I would describe her as the ultimate mediator. She'd prefer to smooth things over rather than get angry. She's about peace, love, beauty, comfort, and fun.

Same here ^
SLI's as well but especially SEI's. Part of having Se as an ignoring function means they will rarely, if ever, react aggressively as it counteracts with their Si.
That's been my observation, irl, too.

Being quick to anger isn't necesarily type related, there can be many reasons for any type to have a quick temper. I do think that SEI's aren't any more violent than other people, however, by saying that SEI's aren't like this, you are killing one stereotype, but your other foot is shot by saying that it makes him an Ni ego (ie you are replacing one stereotype with another).

Pinocchio's description of his girlfriend did seem quite extreme from my point of view, however the pattern of behaviour he described; the manner in which the anger was short, unfocused and unsustained is 100% consistent with SEI's.
The key point is his description of the anger and aggression dissipates. Se types tend to have a greater and more sustained focus a desire to take control of a situation. From his description and of course I may be wrong but the attacks on dogs seem to be more based on fear and a desire to create a comfrotable distance Se.

I can't believe I have to do this, but this thread is a JOKE. Electric Sheep is imitating your behaviour in regards to misconstruing people's intentions and meanings. In other words, he's taking an isolated incident, defining it in a context that is convenient for his conclusion, and then posting said conclusion. No one in their right mind would think you're an Ni ego. Just look at the tone of the thread from the get go. It turned into a series of jokes on the first page. If I'm wrong about this I'll be seriously seriously surprised.

I tried to come up with a response to this, but all I can do is shake my head at you. Honestly, it's getting to that point. You're going to think that's winning, I can already see the post coming, but I'm coming to realize more and more that communicating with you is a complete waste of my time.

why don't you defend yourself more pinocchio? Are you gonna let me retype you like this? You're an Ni type, get over it. Once you accept my impenetrable argument, you will kneel before me.
