Your typing of forum members

[ContractedCriminalboy]

problems with evaluating data and logical arguments is more common for ethicals, peppering a discussion with jokes and humour is as well
you behave consistently in an emotional and ''jovial'' manner, which is highly unlikely for SLIs, so the very likely error of your self-typing leads me to suspect your typings of others to be faulty as well
i've noticed that you edit your posts often, which is behaviour more usual for irrationals, who are more casual and unprepared
so some irrational ethical type is likely

i've given you good reasons to reconsider your type more than once - try to read the basic theory (information elements, dichotomies, strong/weak, valued/unvalued, ITR) and forget about stuff like subtypes before you at least have a good grasp on the basic structure, and what you think makes sense and what doesn't in the elementary theory
and meanwhile try to carefully type people you know, with the basic theory in mind, and try to feel which are more attractive and more sympathetic, and which repulse/frustrate you, and why - this is the best way to find your type

@Alive
not a bad guess

"problems with evaluating data and logical arguments is more common for ethicals"
I don't have any such problems. Learn to differential between one dismissing your lack of logic due to not taking it seriously and one who simply does not understand it. I joke around with your thinking because it's been humorously asinine but now it's gotten old.

"peppering a discussion with jokes and humour is as well"
There is no data that suggests logical types do not do so. Most descriptions, which you admit you disregard due to them being at conflict with your own bias misconceptions, describe SLIs as types to use humor and joke around. ILEs and SLEs are both also notorious for doing so and even LSI in the proper setting. I haven't seen much data in regards to ILI doing so, I'll give you that, but I'm not ILI.

"you behave consistently in an emotional and ''jovial'' manner, which is highly unlikely for SLIs,"
You're once again demonstrating your lack of understanding for the behavior of SLIs. Fe polr does not equate to autistic behavior, a lack of emotion, or even a lack of expression. Restudy the function.

"i've noticed that you edit your posts often, which is behaviour more usual for irrationals, who are more casual and unprepared"
SLIs are irrationals, surprised you were not aware but at the same time, with your frequent demonstration of a severe lack of understanding regarding the type, not so surprised at all.

"i've given you good reasons to reconsider your type more than once"
You actually haven't given a single good reason supported whatsoever by any degree of Socionic theory. Your reasons have all come down to your own misconceptions which you apply with no true scotsman reasoning. Nothing you've said is supported by theory, once again. You argue with Ti yet denied being a Ti type based on intertype relations. I've provided my own intertype relations which you previously claimed is what prevents you from being LSI, with my relations strongly supporting being SLI, to which you now disregard.

"try to feel which are more attractive and more sympathetic, and which repulse/frustrate you"
I've just told you in the very prior post.

Now feel free to go and retype yourself as LSI and actually study the theory of Socionics before battle typing on misconceptions and biases. Also drop the no true scotman outlook on types. Between you and Alive, I don't know who's worse at typing.

"Fe polr does not equate to a lack of expression."

it literally does. ILI and SLI are the most unexpressive types. that's the whole point of Fe PolR, feeling extremly uncomfortable in emotionally charged situations.

Sometimes I insert emojis even though I'm straight faced. I have a basic understanding of humans. I think most people do ...

[Alive]

emojis have nothing to do with it. Fe PolR feels extremly uncomfortable in emotionally charged environments where people are laughing loudly, hugging each other, being extremly close to each other even though they barely know each other. Fe is excitment, the ability to develop emotions and moods, judging moods and attitudes based on the dynamics of the environment and the actions and decisions of others. Perception of the “emotional atmosphere”. Interpretation of other people's emotions and moods based on facial expressions, body language, etc. Sense of community. an impact on emotional and social space through an expressive combination of words and gestures. all of this is weak in SLI and ILI, who usually deflate any form of excitement with a rigid and fact based approach to reality. Fe goes to conventions with a sign "free hugs", Fi prefers to have few close friends.

Comparably less expressive does not equate to unexpressive. Understand the motive behind Fe polr. The point isn't so much that we just don't express emotions as much as we don't understand the emotional atmosphere or emotional expressions of others or even our own emotions, which in turn causes a strong sense of insecurity in the expression of emotion and a dislike of being expected to contribute to an emotional atmosphere, but that does not prevent SLIs from expressing emotion. In an environment where there is comfort in expression, there will be. An SLI having a good time will have a smile on his face and a laugh in his voice. Not as exaggerated as your average ESE but not stone faced and quiet either as a rule, again relating to the level of comfort in the environment. And an SLI having a bad time will be prone to total loss of control in emotional expression to which SLI will then express TOO MUCH emotion, which is always a cause of embarassment and regret. Online is especially a comfortable environment for emotional expression as there really is no Fe atmosphere, at least not in the same physical sense, if anything there is a great deal of Fi behind online expression, so no cause for that Fe polr insecurity, at least in my case, perhaps some other SLIs feel the same atmosphere online as they do in person, I for one do not have the ailment

All of this is exactly the point. When the hell have I expressed the slightest degree of any of this shit? I'm just not a humorless stick up the ass is all, but apparently that equates to being all of the following you mentioned as well. Anyone who thinks I'm Fe ego should put the crack pipe down.

[Metaphor]

Well, as you see, he did explain about Fe PoLR. And then, you related to it, but eventually, you'd get typed as an IEI by him. This is simple.

[Lady Lunacy]

Same, but I know I'm not Fe PoLR. Try just going by other parts of the types.

EDIT:
Actually, I wouldn't say my discomfort with it is “extreme,” but it's definitely there. I only feel the extreme discomfort when I am supposed to produce it myself. I remember back when I was involved in a religious community they had a class in which they were teaching on “being comforting” to others, and it involved a lot of Fe. I remember feeling like, “this shit just isn't me, I can't do this.” That was when I felt extreme discomfort.

EDIT II:
To elaborate...I honestly think this is partly cultural and also familial, too.

I get stressed out because I know it's time for me to start acting.

[Manatroid92]

I get stressed out because I know it's time for me to start acting.

Ignoring and PoLR functions can get confusing, funnily enough. It’s often that the Ignoring function is perceived as weak/undeveloped by others, yet the big difference between them is that the Ignoring can still inform/make judgements of others to some capacity.

In Model G, the Ignoring function is called the Control function; it’s good at advising others how it should be used when necessary, yet it’s actually incredibly difficult to actually use it yourself (partially why it’s also called a ‘hypocritical’ function).

In both Model A and G, both Ignoring and PoLR can cause stress, but the Ignoring will be a severe source of boredom or frustration with someone else asking too much of it from you, while the PoLR is mostly always stressful to deal with, and is prone to both underuse and excess.

@ContractedCriminalboy

>I don't have any such problems.
your ''joking'' was based on the assumption that:
1. I would necessarily type myself Fe because I used a smiley once, according to what you think is my reasoning - this is a problem with evaluating data, a problem with seeing that there is a significant difference in our degree of emotional expressiveness, and that this can be quantitatively observed post-for-post
2. you apparently think that my reasoning boils down to absolute statements of people's types based on single posts, a manifest untruth since I consider typing based on almost everything but long-time IRL interaction a question of likelihoods and often explicitly state that it is a question of likelihoods (such as it being highly unlikely that you are SLI, that it is somewhat more likely that you are an irrational etc.) - here is evidence for the issue with evaluating and processing the logical arguments of others

>There is no data that suggests logical types do not do so.
there is no objective Socionics data, since it has not been scientifically proven. all data is based on consensus or the opinions of an individual, and thus consensus or individuals can only argue from common sense, not absolute proof. besides, the claim was that it is more common for ethicals, not that logicals never do it - again you show problems with processing logical nuance, which is an issue more common for ethicals

>Most descriptions, which you admit you disregard due to them being at conflict with your own bias misconceptions
most descriptions are questionable due to being based on the personal experiences of the writer, who can either easily have mistyped and thus misunderstand the type, or have too little experience with a type to conclude and describe what is general to it
the best descriptions infer mostly or only from the functions, dichotomies, quadras, strong/weak/valued/nonvalued etc., such that they give only what is general or common to the types, which eliminates personal mistakes as far as is possible

>describe SLIs as types to use humor and joke around.
they, as introverts and logicals, do this less, and less openly than other types.

>ILEs and SLEs are both also notorious for doing so
most descriptions are of questionable value, as said. nonetheless, they are extraverts and Fe valuers, so their use of humour will both be more open and more direct/exuberant than other logicals - but their actual emotional level are about as other logicals, in principle (this also depends on what is considered the weakest function, which is a point of contention; for my part I see no principal difference in strength between the first and the second , and the third and the fourth respectively, only how they are expressed; in other words, irrational logicals are not more emotional than rational logicals, in my view)

>I haven't seen much data in regards to ILI doing so
there should be no difference in the emotional expression of ILI vs. SLI, as they have ethics in the same ''place''

>You're once again demonstrating your lack of understanding for the behavior of SLIs
and you are once again demonstrating an inability to process arguments, or you just do not read carefully enough - to behave consistently in an emotional and jovial manner is highly unlikely for SLIs, or do you take issue with the elementary definitions of introversion and logic, perhaps even considering them ''bias misconceptions''?

>Fe polr does not equate to autistic behavior, a lack of emotion, or even a lack of expression.
nowhere did I claim this, so spending your energy attacking strawmen is really a waste
what Fe in superego does equate to, however, is relatively and on average less emotion (as logical types) and less outward, excited emotional expressivenes (as introverts and Te types) - being introverts XLI are more covert when they do express emotions than LXE, and the emotions they prefer to express are Fi-ish emotions, which are softer, more concerned with emotional and interpersonal comfort and the care for personal relationships, and less exuberant expressiveness and elation which the Ti types can like to indulge in when relaxed
also, all functions are used everyday, even the superego ones, but their difference in strength and importance when compared to the ego functions is absolutely obvious
Fe polr types can be said to be the least outwardly emotional expressive, in general

>surprised you were not aware
the topic at hand is the question of your type, including whether you are rational/irrational, since it is evident that SLI is highly unlikely to be your type - someone should not just assume that you are irrational just because you type yourself as such

>You actually haven't given a single good reason supported whatsoever by any degree of Socionic theory.
I'm surprised that you consider the basic dichotomy of logic/ethics to be unrelated to ''any degree of Socionic theory'', but it would explain a lot

>You argue with Ti yet denied being a Ti type based on intertype relations.
I primarily argue by examples, pointing to behaviour which is likely/unlikely for the type a given person assigns to themselves - this is just as much Te (perceiving and understanding the ''data'' of behaviour, as far as common sense can perceive) as it is Ti (concluding something logically based on raw data/facts)
also, I give advice on how to proceed with understanding your type, which is a question of efficiency, which is Te
any person who tries to convince someone of something being the case, based on interpretation of data, uses Te and Ti - difference is what kind of logical activites are preferred overall; for example, erudition and expansive factual knowledge is more unlikely to be something which Ti types strive for, just like theoretical fields where models, worldviews, mathematical/syllogistic procedures and formulas are dominant aren't as appealing to Te types
you can check my examples of IEEs in the delta thread, if you're interested in positing another type for me - they should be mostly EIEs, if I really was LSI

>which you now disregard
this follows from that you are likely mistyped

>battle typing
such as strange concept - arguing with someone about their type with the intention to correct it - in the relevant thread, even - is seen as an attack... seems like another assumption of emotional motivation


this conversation is fruitless, and I am repeating myself, so I see no point in continuing. if you're interested in being typed (which doesn't seem the case), then a video would be enlightening - as I said, i suspect an ethical irrational type.

[WinnieW]

Fe PolR feels extremly uncomfortable in emotionally charged environments where people are laughing loudly, hugging each other, being extremly close to each other even though they barely know each other.

I have thought about it if that applies to me, but for me the situation is a little bit different. It's not the emotional environment itself, for me it's more about the choice if I want to be part of that environment or not.
If somebody tries to push me to be part of that said environment I likely refuse, but if it's my own choice to be part of such an environment then it's not a problem for me.

I'm not gonna bother reading this autistic wall of text from one who is himself mistyped. I have told you the facts as is and a basic review of socionics resources will point to my typing. I have also already made two typing threads which unanimously supported my typing. Any and all descriptions support my typing, intertype relations support my typing, dichotomies support my typing, and most of all, functions support my typing. Apparently the only thing against my typing is that I have a sense of basic humor and strongly disagree with this autists lack of reasoning ability.

Reminder to the forum: if you don't have a likewise severe autistic/schizoid personality as said user and have actually have a healthy sense of humor and ability to emote to basic human levels, you're not a logical type and most certainly aren't SLI. We have no further means for interaction, which at no point was particular desired on my part so fuck off Mr. LSI.

[ContractedCriminalboy]

No offense to Kara of course with the autism remarks but they have to be made as they are generally relevant considering this long running campaign of his started over a single sentence, three word, bad fucking reference joke of mine, saying "who hurt you?". That points strongly to an inability on his end to process such things, which he then projects into believing that all SLIs and logical types must likewise have an inability to process.

his name points somewhat to valued Se, yes, mostly the irrationals - the most iron-fisted upholders of order are stereotypically the beta rationals
also, his interests which were previously mentioned seem to include martial arts and heavy lifting, which are interests with an assumed considerable majority of Se valuers. but self-reported interests are, of course, unreliable, as we don't know him personally or know to what degree he pursues them

>he values Fe too

Well, Gulenko's report made me think that LIE would be OK secondary type.


However: There tends to be a hidden collision between me and Fi types. Let's call it suspicion. So it is hard for me to even relax with them as I judge their remarks manipulative or over adjusting (corruption of thought in scientific sense). I do not practice pragmatic business or try to win that way. I don't probably act democratically at all. Means: I do not establish business relations. Instead of that I prefer to strip down needs to bare minimum and make savings while avoid to make any sort of investments (Te of LSE and ILI). My work is tweaking > executing. That is process over result.

This is a fair comment, but really it’s all a matter of information/‘values’ preference.

It’s not so dissimilar to Te thinking Ti bases are obtuse/missing the point and vice-versa. In reality both kinds of Ethical types ‘manipulate’, but I think that Fe/Fi bases can do so without even really meaning to.
For example, an ESE or EIE might troll an emotionally-charged story is just letting their feelings out, but it seeps into the atmosphere and can change how their listeners feel about something. The manipulation, in a way, is actually palpable to
everyone *except* the ExE, because they’re kind of just operating how they’re programmed to and aren’t wholly aware how they come off to others.

Theres a difference between affecting and manipulating. Manipulating is done maliciously and usually consciously.

Theres a difference between affecting and manipulating. Manipulating is done maliciously and usually consciously.

You're right, I guess, I don't really disagree.

The point I was trying to make is that neither type of Ethical is really doing it out of malicious intent, it's just what 'comes out' of them respectively.
Fi types aren't trying to manipulate others in communication, and Te types are 'built' to appreciate them. For Fe-valuers, that Fi-style of communication may seem manipulative when it's really not.

In the same way, Fe types aren't really trying to manipulate others in communication either; Ti types are, again, 'built' to appreciate them. Fi-valuers understandably judge their emotionality as manipulative when Fe-egos don't intend to do so, as well.

It's just the nature of information elements to work that way.

Is anyone else bored yet?

Lucy who?

You're right, I guess, I don't really disagree.

I was trying to make a joke.

This is a fair comment, but really it’s all a matter of information/‘values’ preference.

It’s not so dissimilar to Te thinking Ti bases are obtuse/missing the point and vice-versa. In reality both kinds of Ethical types ‘manipulate’, but I think that Fe/Fi bases can do so without even really meaning to.
For example, an ESE or EIE might troll an emotionally-charged story is just letting their feelings out, but it seeps into the atmosphere and can change how their listeners feel about something. The manipulation, in a way, is actually palpable to
everyone *except* the ExE, because they’re kind of just operating how they’re programmed to and aren’t wholly aware how they come off to others.

This comment should be taken into account for type functional descriptions tbh

Theres a difference between affecting and manipulating. Manipulating is done maliciously and usually consciously.

When I listen to music or go to the theater or read a book etc, I want it to work on me emotionally. I want to be affected. I go to the theater to cry, I want to be affected. Affection and Emotional manipulation are closer than it seems, they are almost synonymous imho. Any kind of Art has at its very purpose the expression of the artist and the desire to "touch" the audience emotionally, to induce "something" in the other via emotions. Emotions "control" can be perceived as a manipulation but it's also at the core of every well crafted art. It's the prestige of the artist, the actor, the magician, the musician, the painter, the infographist, the dramatist, the movie director, the dancer, the cook, circus artist etc.. Again, to be in control of the audience's emotions is the prerogative of artists. Emotions are the universal language, it's powerful, communicative and indispensable.

Without art and artists , therefore emotional power virtuosity, there is no civilizational development. All the philosophical questions of society have been, are and will always be expressed through art, "plays" and staging. There is no magic nore transcendence without emotions. The world always changes (hopefully for the good) after "Bravos" and applauses.

Anyway, I just wanted to point out the fact that "Manipulating" is not always done maliciously.

So what you are basically saying is that all artists are IEI
