I haven't abandoned you [MENTION=9883]Redbone[/MENTION]
I just did something really stupid is all... I went and started reading as many sp and so e7 descriptions as I could find and now my head hurts. There just doesn't seem to be any kind of agreement whatsoever on what a 7 so is like...vs a 7 sx or 7 sp...WTF people? I knew things were bad but I had forgotten just how bad. I honestly think [MENTION=5684]Elfboy[/MENTION] 's are the most accurate ones you can currently access on the internet.
When I put everything together in my mind...I think 7w6 sp (specifically self-preservation dominance for the 7w6) would be a very rare thing to have manifest. Did that even make sense? haha 'have manifest' ? I guess so. It would rarely occur. Not impossible...but rare. I think sp is for 7w8. I think what may happen is if there's an especially sensitive ENFP 7w6 so child... A child that for the most part fits Naranjo's social description below... if that child's openness and universally loving spirit takes one too many blows...they may start to shift that focus inward. They may start to seem self-preservation...without actually being self-preservation. sp is an alternative survival strategy as opposed to an actual dominant preference.
I have an ENFP 7w6 so/sx friend irl. Now, she knows she is a social dom...and yet I could easily place her into a 7 sp description...for the same reasons I think you *might* be relating to the sp descriptions yourself. I'm not saying I know... this is only a feeling and possibly meaningless. My friend is not the Saint found in Naranjos' description by any stretch of the imagination...but I think she started out to be.
I'll have to think on this some more...

Naranjo´s depiction of Social Sevens below.
SOCIAL 7
Passion: “SOCIAL SACRIFICE¨
¨Brother Sun, Sister Moon¨
It’s the Counter-7: Sacrifices his/her gluttony in the pursuit of a social benefit, the postponement of desires for one ideal.
The gluttony in this case is focused in the desire of being seen as very, very good , almost Saintly.
Have gluttony for recognition of their sacrifice.
The key word is SACRIFICE but it’s a narcissistic sacrifice because they want to be appreciated in return. They sacrifice their pleasure for an ideal, for Goodness = Goodness for applause.
They are the most austere of all Sevens. The good boy/girl who makes sacrifices for the world. Too pure. Altar Boys, Boy & Girl Scouts, Hippies. They need to be seen as good kids.
Good for a benefit. Idealism focused on Social things
More accepting of limits than other subtypes. High sense of responsibility.
Eagerness to please, thirst of recognition and popularity. They need to shine (like 3s) but projecting the image of BEING GOOD, ALMOST SAINTLY.
-Desire for PURITY.
-Childish.
-More connected with guilt, more idealistic.
-Utopian & Idealist. Reach ideal of perfection-like Ones-, but in the Social 7 it's not innate perfectionism, it's forced.
-Sly & shrewd with face of good boys/girls, they always get what they want.
-Generous but not selfless. They can lie and manipulate (but always thru good manners), but without noticing their strings attached.
They keep talking about their sacrifices for the common good.
They long for a ¨highest kind of pleasure¨, being next to God.Many Priests and Nuns belong to this subtype.
-They are more hard-working (more focused), less fickle than the other subtypes..
More Fivish, they are not so visible or extroverts.
-The most faithful of all Sevens, they only cheat in their fantasies. It doesn’t match being pure & promiscuous. Before ¨temptation¨, they can hold themselves back easily unlike the Sx & Sp who can’t.
-Helpful with others, but usually expect a reward. Their generosity has a hidden agenda.
-They help everyone without regards, unlike the SP 7 who just helps those of their convenience (and whose can take advantage of later)
When you need something in the social arena, you need recognition and approval. What´s the best way to get this? Being GOOD. They try to be good according to social consensus.
The most sober and introverted of 7s. Concerned about diet, image, etc.
Usually self-sacrficing, takes the burden of family, children, etc.
Example: St. Francis of Assisi (note: in order to understand this subtype, he recommended watching ¨Brother Sun, Sister Moon¨).
). I kept my um...private messes and stresses to myself. Mostly because I didn't think anyone could help me and also because I was ashamed of even having weaknesses.
