Society doesn't suck, customs do. Marriage is outdated and a model that only fits certain people. It promotes compulsive heterosexuality as well. It stifles all opportunities.
People already talk via social media while sitting next to each other, I wouldn't predict anything like that, it's already happening. The solution to this problem: being a gay technophobe in a state where homosexual marriage is illegal, without money or desire to adopt a kid
Ok, I'll leave now

Okay, it's time for something really Sx/Sp (or Sp/Sx), unlike all these trashy videos that align themselves too much with the social standards of today.

Except for impaired empathy, an ordinary guy who's looking for down-to-earth, loving, loyal friends and a geeky, warm, voluptuous girlfriend!
I was wrong, I will cry
I will love you till the day I die
You were all, you alone and no one else
You were meant for me
When morning comes again
I have the loneliness you left me
Each day drags by
Until finally my time descends on me
... oh I didn't mean any offense, though, they all look nice and dandy, the girls or men who sing or perform or walk in front of the camera. Just makes me wonder how many friends they have on Facebook.
Hey, BTW, how many friends do the sx/sp or sp/sx users here have on Facebook? Or followers on other social media?
Here're some more vague songs...
1st one's easy... <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTOwu3aMa0M" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">
2nd one's more popular, as Pink Floyd's popularity enjoyed a resurgence these years but I'll only point out the interesting bit... https://youtu.be/53N99Nim6WE?t=18m22s
Oh right, an feel the groove of this... not as much those brighter melodies, it just somehow flows in eternal suspension.

Save you the trouble from this one as well... overdone song. https://youtu.be/5xFrAtOwsY8?t=7m34s

Freddy was clearly something of an so/sx, I guess, dunno who made this video, it rather seems to have an Sx/So bent. But the melody mostly doesn't sound like it was if intended for parties.

Sx/Sp or Sp/Sx can change the emotional qualities of a person. Like loneliness, feelings of being outcast, left to ones own devices, socially misunderstood, marooned, rebelling against the majority etc. grants different visual or acoustic chromatics if represented through various media. Colors become washed out, suddenly there is beauty in decay and disillusionment/distrust for the artifice of perfect beauty (rust, decay, abandonment in the foreground; the natural quality of things is not "sanitized" "unblemished" "pure"). Solitary towers may parallel the intimate focus of one individual's inner life as symbols from romanticist, Gothic obsession with the individual, Byronic hero. Melodies turn more sinister in tone, more flat/sharp notes, minors utilized (Enharmonic modulation?) compositions may evoke feelings of strange, cold, alien, "paranormal," oneiric, trippy (dirty) ascendence, etc. Emphasis is not on conveying a narrative through musical composition, a "story," instead capturing an ambience of feelings, a comforting solitude of texture of notes that wrap around the 'soul' of the listener, conserving, shielding away from the cacophony of the world.
None of this, however ties to any genre in general. On one of my course we learned that film noir was never listed as a filmic genre. Still, after its hayday, "noir" continued to pop up in various types of films, detuning their style by adding more grittiness, edge, social criticism, colder/darker tone, an eerie psychological depth, mystery, a blurring of the good / bad, thus steering away from straight happy ends toward more complexity, seriousness.
And even if these are true, it doesn't change the very fact, that all can be imitated, coppycatted, captured and re-represented (by so/sxs, so/sp, sx/sos) under the (sun)light of the public eye. The way Batman or a subversive idea can contained and become public property (counterculture becomes culture). So the most important factor that one has to discern to be able to differentiate (needs careful dissection) is the following: "raw communication" 1-on-1 without masspersonal intent. Or in other words: no games, no bluffing, no sarcasm, duplicity but direct intimacy. It strips naked to talk to you. Would you bare your soul for him/her?

I associate SX/SP with a swordsman or -woman, I explain why (the instinctual processes) underneath the quotes.
SX --> the "unstoppable" energy
SP --> channeling through physical resources
SO --> neglect of the overall battle dynamics
SX --> confrontation
SP --> mobilization through the fighting body
SO --> "most people", consensus that can be an illusion/false/denied
SX --> belligerent energy
SP --> manifested in the body
SO --> everything outside the body
(can also be interpreted as SP/SX)
SX --> the sacrifice of self
SP --> and therefore the body
SO --> irrelevance of bonds, the enemies etc
SX --> being the storm
SP --> withstanding
SX --> strong spirit
SP --> trumps the expensive sword
SO --> subordination to others
Addendum: the behavioral and mental patterns associated to this Enneagram "type" not only can be, but also, inexorably will be copied. This is a historical tendency, it goes on under various other names, I believe if one takes a look into Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey will be able to find the "wolfman's" "Enkidu's," "Mowgli's" "feral children's" story throughout all kinds of myths from all over the world. And society cutifying them to tame their subversive edge (having the potential to inquire into society's unquestioned/naturalized habits/values/world perceptions while being unbiased). I think the term 'postmodern' that talks about the loss of the original within the overabundance of copies has something to do with it. Hell, I even read a Žižek intro saying:
So in other words: re-represent it as much as you want, overpost the forum with loaned pictures, music videos, overdone attempts to prove your revolutionary spark through striking, loud colors, but at the end of the day, all it will boil down to (that cynical distance splitting up theory/words/images from) is:The ideological attitude opened up by this split, of course, is that of cynism, of cynical distance which pertains to the very notion of Enlightenment and which today seems to have reached its apogee: although officially undermined, devalorized, authority returns through the sidedoor - "we know there is no truth in authority, yet we continue to play its game and to obey it in order not to disturb the usual run of things..." Truth is suspended in the name of efficiency (...) "In theory deconstruct as much as you will, but in your everyday life, play the predominant social game!" The present book was written with a view to bringing to public notice the nullity of cynical distance.
Actions speak louder than words.

a little synflow rant
Yeah.
My soc energy lasts for a couple minutes just like you describe. Then if there is no one interesting to me, I can stay only if I have some other goal with the situation. Or for good food, sometimes.
I however feel no need to "fix" myself about this. I know now how I work and I can seek out socialization based on that and not force things on myself beyond that that do not work for me.
Understanding myself better helped a lot there. Before that I used to think I had to "fix" this.

@Myst and @Ghost , thank you for your insights; I feel the same. Chemistry is organic, tbh, and while it's great to aspire to better the blind spot, it's still important to listen to your primary instinct and worth with your limitations; I, like Myst, have felt that there was something wrong with me and I do have so flaws, I have found not to force myself to do things with a crowd in which I'm not really into anyone. I have found that it might take time to find that but it's worth it. And we can all try to improve, meanwhile *rambles*.

Shire, herself, may be 4 sp/sx though.

I noticed the other day that my sp/sx 794 friend has very similar facial features as Stevie Nicks whose the same tritype and stacking. So I was like huh. Then I remembered someone told me once I looked like Joan Jett, and we do have similar facial features, shes 864 sx/sp and I'm sx/sp 468. Interesting stuff
