    Red face 9s are the type that stand up the most

    Or else why is the concept of wings even made then
    Naranjo obviously knows what he's doing with enneagram
    1 and 8 influence the 9 for a reason and think about the way 1s and 8s manifest in their behaviour
    Now you see why i'm saying this

    I agree a underconfident and unhealthy 9 may not be able to but I'm talking about in general and it also depends on how you define standing up. I feel like you have to do the right thing trust me.

    When something feels wrong sure. But usually I like to wait and gauge the situation from a distance.

    I think 9w8 Rick Grimes from TWD and his battle with Negan and the saviors is good example of this.

    So many reasons. Mostly observation though.

    Naranjo obviously knows what he's doing with enneagram
    No, he doesn't "obviously" know what he's doing. He knows a great deal about the Enneagram, yes, but his descriptions carry many flaws with them. His descriptions of type 9's are one of his worst, in fact. Again though, none of this is an "obvious" thing and nothing and no one's authority should be taken for granted as such.

    1 and 8 influence the 9 for a reason and think about the way 1s and 8s manifest in their behaviour
    Yes, the placements of the types are no coincidence. Behavior, however, varies a great deal and in itself is an unreliable tool to look at type.

    Now you see why i'm saying this
    No, because you haven't given any reasoning. From this you only offer the vague connection to wings and Naranjo and that's it.

    I agree a underconfident and unhealthy 9 may not be able to but I'm talking about in general and it also depends on how you define standing up. I feel like you have to do the right thing trust me.
    They may and they may not. Type 9 is stubborn, it resists the world. Unhealthy 9 will be the most stubborn/resistant. Depending on how you view this, you might see someone who stands up for themselves, but they may or may not be paying attention.

    Likewise.

    When 9s do stand up for/to something, it's usually good for both themselves and the world- because this is the very thing they need to practice the most instead of just being a good-natured peacenik tagalong to everybody else's narcissism. Even if it makes them uncomfortable at first, because that's what enneagram is supposed to be about, getting over yourself so you can better get along with others in society. The 'unhealthy' levels of each type are basically at their core, either Self-Hating or Other-hating. And hate destroys.

    This pop song is a good example of a 9 integrating to 3 lol:

    If the argument is that 9 "stands up" the most because wings 8 and 1 influence them to do so, and not the main type, wouldn't it make more sense to say 8 and 1 stand up more than 9?

    Standing up?

    E9 is the quadriplegic of the enneagram. So, no.

    But you gotta take into consideration that 8 and 1 are generally more assertive so they find it easier to deal with things, 9 on the other hand aren't so its harder for them thus it takes them a great deal to stand up hence standing up the most.

    Maybe I could've worded it a little better

    Standing up the most what I mean is that in general its a big obstacle for a 9 to stand up as opposed to most of the other types generally
    I guess you disagree

    I agree. It is more important to me because it takes alot of built up energy to do so.

    8s and 1s actually see much as unchill and scary at these times. xD

    What if enneagram is not a wheel but is an upward line where 1 is the start and 9 the end?

    That would mess up all the integrating and disintegrating lines, to say nothing of the groups.

    well I certainly don't believe in any of that. What groups?

    Or the concepts of wings (and the idea that Enneagram types have some logical order to them) is complete nonsense in the first place.

    But they are consecutive numbers and wings are consecutive too. Why they'd chose to use numbers if there is no logical order? They could use colors or any other words or adjetcives

    Good question! How was the ordering decided in the first place? If there is any logical justification for it I'd very much like to see it.

    It is both: It is a spiral. And it doesn't have an ending or a beginning outside of us placing it in a certain order to make sense of things.
