to me, they generally come across as follows
So/Sp: politician, activist, soldier, comedian
So/Sx: dog-like, buddy, frat boy/sorority girl
Sp/So: accountant, businessman
Sp/Sx: spy, seducer, cat-like, reclusive writer
Sx/Sp: diva, vampire,
Sx/So: sex drugs and rock 'n roll, cult leader

PS: before anyone accuses me or stereotyping, I'm well aware that not all members of the above subtypes are going to be like that. I'm simply stating how most come across to me

I have been accused of having this rock-star energy all my life ;) And for a time, I was actually on stage part of a rock band. Haha. Not saying that this means anything with regards to accurate typing - but I can live with the stigma of being this rock-star cult leader type :p

Which one is pot-head? So/sx? People have asked if I was high on more than one occasion. :(

I have balanced sx and sp, and I'd say I'm pretty much a blend of these two descriptions.

Why do SX/SO(s) give off the "sex, drugs and rock n' roll/cult leader" vibe?

- they have a fire/ice energy to them
- use supporting So to infiltrate a group and dominant Sx to pull people they like into their own group

I tested as sp and so equal, and sx dominant; but in this description sp/sx is way more me. I'm pretty sure I'm sx/sp though, because of the mystical energy-merging combined with a messed up sense of boundaries (which makes me uncomfortable).

I could hardly describe it better than that.


sp/soc: The most straightfoward in language, with relatively little trills and embellishments. Points made directly and from personal experience. Business-like. Clear. Cynical. Lacking in internal experience compared to other stackings.

sp/sx: Comes out as somewhat heavy and gloomy, or cool and detached. Often gives out a suffocating and insular vibe, as if their internal world is wrapped around by an impermeable membrane. Strong sensory impressions designed to awake sexuality. Makes one want to linger on one or two lines forever.

soc/sp: Tangential. Lots of details and analysis. Very in-their-head and intellectual, and lacks sensuality. Comes across as level-headed and unspontaneous, but also with personal warmth. Their written works often require a great deal of mental concentration from the readers.

soc/sx: The word "fantastical" comes to mind. Lots of virtuosity and trills, and often removed from the real world. One is whirled away by the dazzling fairies of their colorful imagination. Can be too rich in imagery for their own good. Sustained dramatic power due to their knowledge of interpersonal dynamics.

sx/sp: Intense, often a stab-in-the-chest sensation, leaving me in tears without knowing why. Fantastical but much more concentrated in a few inner images. Can be abstract, animating dead objects into their field of contemplation. Embodiment of another human, thing, or idea is common in their writings.

sx/soc: My impression of their writing is "fire-and-ice", as if one is to experience the extremes of heat and coldness at the same time. Often abstract, spilling one inner vision after another like a dream-sequence. Seems particularly in touch with the core meaning of life and death.
