    Alpha's just want to let everyone else know that Alpha is first/best. I think that's the root of it all...

I think it would be smarter to either (a) divide the forum into temperaments. I have more common ground with INTps than with ESFjs. Or (b) divide it by strongest irrational function or strongest rational function. I don't see how anyone benefits from having it as it is now.
    You just want to split up the Betas because you think it will stop us from pwning teh world. Nice try :wink:

    Aren't the quadras mainly for "fulfilling a certain role in society", meaning work relations? Well, except the dual thing. I have noticed it's very easy to work with ESFJs and INTJs, but outside work I don't really spend time with ESFJs. Their constant small talk drives me nuts. I don't know many (if any) ISFPs.

    Temperaments create divison and negative stereotypes, we (as a collective) simply need to learn to look at the things which are similar rather than what is different. That way we also avoid elitism.

    At least division and negative stereotypes are on the road to the above idealised scenario...*sigh*

    cool said ishy, liked it


    @all
    have you considered those ESFjs being actually ESFps? (the small talk etc..)

    EDIT: perhaps the best thing in socionics would be to change the names for types, because people get confused and assume for ex ESFj and ESFp is aproximately the same thing, which IS NOT

    strictly in terms of functions
    esfj: Fe-Si-Te-Ni-Ti-Ne-Fi-Se
    esfp: Se-Fi-Ne-Ti-Ni-Te-Si-Fe

    As you see, even one function does not fit, they are mixed up!

    Tell her you have a problem. She will start nurturing you and she want's to make you feel better. She supports you emotionally and that's so cute.

    quadras do not create division and negative stereotypes; people and their egotistical ideologies do. i get what you mean but do not insult the fundamental unit of the socion. what did the quadra ever do to you!?

    Nothing wrong with being a little indirect. If they want to nitpick at our indirectness they should address their communication insecurities.

    (Ok, so I'm a hypocrite, lol).
