They like dramatic displays of emotion and like being in an emotionally charged environment.

    Betas in general tend to have a "fuck the system" mentality and you see this in SLEs most overtly. I don't necessarily mean rioting in the street or something, more like doing things in an unconventional way. Alphas are like that too, but Betas tend to be more "in your face" about it.

    The ones I know are real gentlemen/ladies and they are surprisingly submissive as well. My brother is an SLE and he never says "no" to any of my whims. I've seen him accompany me and look bored to death, but he never says no.

    Respect is also a big deal, give and take respect, but you also need to be able to command respect. This is more for LSIs, I think (not sure). They're aware of power dynamics and so can easily become a protector of the weak. Aristocratic? Yes. Snobbish? No. As for the whole `clan` thing... it's probably true? It's more like wanting to be in a place where I get to make all the rules, where everyone knows their place, where I'm respected and my worth is acknowledged, etc. Betas tend to like hierarchical systems. I think Deltas are also very clan-ish in that sense? (not sure)

    What do you think @sbbds accurate or am I mistaken?
    Yes that’s why they love Shakespeare. By the way I went to London with my SLE friend who put the Shakespeare theater on our agenda and every time she visits me in LA she wants to see a play by the Shakespeare company. Lol Shakespeare is extremely emotionally charged. As you can imagine very few Delta there.

    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    What i truly admire and respect about a SLE i know is her ability to stand up and do what she thinks is the right thing, unwavering. Of course, i have been in many debates with her about what the right thing might BE, but it is something that i admire nonetheless. To protect the weak in that fashion is something i find very attractive.

    When they are in a positive mood with their Fe HA then yes this is true. When they are not, the opposite is true. Level of health of course matters in this a lot like for any other type too.

    I do think in general it would be good to add the conditions for when the statement is true instead of trying to generalise to the entire type as is. (Not trying to address you personally with this, this is more general.)

    I love Shakespeare! The bard is one of my favorite poets! I have memorized lines from his plays. There's nothing I love more than intense, often times tragic emotions. Take a look at my siggy. The quotes are from Wuthering Heights, one of my favorite books. It's funny, because Charlotte Bronte (the author of Jane Eyre) and Emily Bronte (the author of Wuthering Heights) are Gamma and Beta respectively. Emily Bronte's book was published after her death - she died at a young age after writing one book - and Charlotte Bronte did the editing to make it more palatable lol. Charlotte B really disapproved of her sister's writing lol. Fe vs Fi xD

    Oh, I thought I had made it clear I was talking about my personal experience with the type. Ofc, the good and the bad are both true, there are good and bad examples of every type. I will make it more clear in the future

    Oh I forget. The Delta were the actors. Among them was an ISTP and an ENFP. My SLE friend stood mesmerized and staring at the SLI. I think she fell in love with him but has no idea that he ignores Se lol

    I agree with this perspective. The ESTp that I knew well, would frequently show off and put on a facade when in public or with friends. (Se) However, in personal interaction, he was somewhat insecure and 'soft'.

As he became more educated he began to realize that hierarchy and people ruling over each is something that will exist no matter what, so instead he sought change the system to make aligned to the welfare and progress of the people and to remove all parasitic, pragmatic self-serving elements from both the state and nation as a whole (****** had these same views as well, hence their alliance).

    People who say they like hierarchy in it's modern day capitalistic form are Te types, especially Gammas and LIEs in particular. Te and pragmatism are the biggest assets in climbing most of today's hierarchies. Betas like ****** and Mussolini instead sought to make hierarchy strictly centered around merit and to prevent backstabbers, self-servers and ruthless cutthroats from being able to rise in the hierarchy as much as possible.

    I provide organized information of my personal experience with an individual that I identify as an ESTp which correlates to the conversation. I hope my experience may be useful. I do not care about your feelings.

    Overly abrasive
    I am not insulting the ESTp or others. I am listing basic facts about him, in addition on how he came across by me and his peers.
    Example of overly abrasive: He was a person that spent the majority of his allowance on shoes, socks, headbands, and sport gear; that flunked high school and represented your stereotypical jock. Objective

    Domineering
    I do not see how I am establishing or provoking any power play.
    Example of domineering: He resembled a little brother to me, correlating to benefactor and beneficiary. He frequently asked for my advice, money, and car rides. Objective

    Expressive
    To better and directly communicate my message.
    I am not even sure if this is a negative in an online forum context...

    Straight out of the gate, love it and 99% agree. I'd only question if a de dicto and de re distinction is worth drawing here for Gamma. Hierarchy is concretely and demonstrably unavoidable and is not negative in abstract (only in instance). A Gamma age however is ostensibly and avowedly non-hierarchical with a lot of goofy rhetoric about boot straps, elbow grease, and meritocracy. So in a consciously, de dicto, stated explicit sense a Gamma era is not hierarchical in an overtly enforced sense while it very obviously in point of unavoidable fact produces an individualistic, de re, hierarchy of rootless robber barons based on capital accumulation with no sense of group membership or obligation.

    Just felt the need to draw that out as a contrast to Delta, whose era builds an implicit, unfixed, shifting, imperial, unavowable but none the less zealously enforced hierarchy based on ostensible anti-hierarchy--which is the inverse of the beta that is overt and honest, laying out clearly what the score is, what your requirements are and what you can expect from the greater whole.

    The funny thing is with some people you only have to imply they’re insecure to make them start feeling and acting insecure.

    How about you stop projecting your own issues onto others. As the first step for you to make.

    And then for the second step, learn to read.

    For the third step, go back to the original post by @Hard Headed and see how your responses to it were really off.

    Hint: he called the SLE egotistical yet not domineering.

    I think I mentioned it in my other posts, betas definitely embody the spirit of rebellion. I think heirarchy is more a beta ST thing than it is for Beta NFs. One of the reasons why LSI is EIEs dual is because of how good LSI is at creating systems. Same goes for SLE, but SLEs are a lot more expensive, I think. EIE is a very scattered type. I do appreciate knowing my place, and others knowing their place. I'm not quite sure what you mean by capitalistic heirarchies... I was more talking about social/societal and even in relation to other people.

    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    And then for the second step, learn to read.

    For the third step, go back to the original post by @Hard Headed and see how your responses to it were really off.

    Hint: he called the SLE egotistical yet not domineering.
    I wasn't projecting my own issues, he just seemed to be insecure and I mentioned the reasons why. I rarely have had any problems with SLEs so that doesn't really work.

    Hey @Myst, don't worry about it- just ignore them.

    I am Kanren; you helped me with my member's questionnaire a few years ago. Hope you are doing well, it is nice seeing you.

    They are aggressive and self confident. The males usually get in trouble with the law. They like to test boundaries/limits, and invoke others with feeling. But they also have a sweet playful/manipulative "innocent" side that IEIs tend to love and deltas tend to loathe. Not valuing Te, they tend to like more informal power structures where they won because they were more rawly powerful rather than through faggy and weak overly PC democratic institutions.

    They indirectly inspire their duals to be more confident/outgoing because they are this way, it's often over-the-top confidence that the "victim" in the relationship has no choice but to be more easier on themselves, and less victim-y as well. That kinda explains the ease of communication between the dual pairs. But it has to be complementary, many times the IEI is too shy/too SEI-like to even be around the SLE, and the SLE might find the IEI too weak, out-of-reach, and/or pathetic. But "ideally" if other factors are present, this is how it works.

A Gamma age however is ostensibly and avowedly non-hierarchical with a lot of goofy rhetoric about boot straps, elbow grease, and meritocracy. So in a consciously, de dicto, stated explicit sense a Gamma era is not hierarchical in an overtly enforced sense while it very obviously in point of unavoidable fact produces an individualistic, de re, hierarchy of rootless robber barons based on capital accumulation with no sense of group membership or obligation.

    Just felt the need to draw that out as a contrast to Delta, whose era builds an implicit, unfixed, shifting, imperial, unavowable but none the less zealously enforced hierarchy based on ostensible anti-hierarchy--which is the inverse of the beta that is overt and honest, laying out clearly what the score is, what your requirements are and what you can expect from the greater whole.

    I agree here. However, I think the hiearchy is way more implicit--->'this' guys, or girls opinions about who what how and should, are what we all need to follow.

    For example, I'm thinking Whoppi Goldberg and the 15 years of harping on the View.

    Edit: another example is the straight forward moralizing of the Hodge Twins.

    Its more of a : you can follow my hierarchal opinion here, but why wouldn't you, are you crazy, or something?

    On the dark side of the spectrum its bullying, with, or without teeth. Depends.

One of the reasons why LSI is EIEs dual is because of how good LSI is at creating systems. Same goes for SLE, but SLEs are a lot more expensive, I think. EIE is a very scattered type. I do appreciate knowing my place, and others knowing their place. I'm not quite sure what you mean by capitalistic heirarchies... I was more talking about social/societal and even in relation to other people.
    Scattered like?

    PS: I'll respond to your other stuff later, I'll have a bit more time soon

    Meant general issues more than related to experiences with SLE. Like why get at someone else like that without them doing anything if it didn't trigger something for yourself. But I'm not going to beat at this further, I already made my points before.

    PS: And I don't know you otherwise, so this isn't personal like that. If you want to actually go on with some answer tho', PM me, instead of off topic, this is already enough off topic lol.
