ENTPs have swagger too. Certainly compared to, say, an INTJ at least.
Just to clarify, I'm not talking about being cool. They are cool. And compared to INTJ, the ENTP is going to be engaging and extroverted. I just associate Se swagger as a certain kind of groundedness, either with an underlying cockiness or in many women, upfront sexuality. ENTPs don't embody this stuff. They're more innocent. I don't even think they directly express sensuality or sexuality much. They have more novel approaches, maybe even a little infantile, while ESTPs give the impression that they're trying to be badass adults from an early age. And ESTPs come off as being cool in common ways. Things that obviously get attention. It's why they're popular most of the time. In Jung's terminology, they are "people of tangible reality". This includes following trends, actualizing them, relating all the external Se back onto themselves, without criticizing it. The Ne dominant will always try to do "something else" instead, show disinterest in how things are, and take different chances in how they present themselves.
