When I say 16 types, I don't mean the forum, but the root idea of 16 personality types of four letters, which would include socionics, MBTI and Jung's functions. A few days ago I overheard some teenagers talking about it in the bus like it was common knowledge and it caught me off guard because I felt that it was an esoteric-like knowledge to be aware of the 16 personality types. Anyone else noticing this trend?

, etc.? Why cannot socionists use symbols Ne, Ni etc. as in MBTI? Just because they have somewhat different meaning. Socionics and MBTI, each in its own way, have slightly modified the original Jung's description of his 8 psychological types. For this reason,
(extraverted sensing) is first and foremost associated with control and expansion of personal space (which sometimes can manifest in excessive aagression, but often also manifests in a capability of managing lots of people and things).
