Yes, from what you posted, you could be sx first; or alternatively sx second is possible, but certainly not sx last at the very least.

This is what I have been able to conclude, too. I'm just not sure whether I'm Sx/Sp, Sp/Sx, or So/Sx (I don't think I'm intense enough to be Sx/So). This has stumped me for the longest time.

Actually, the more I think about it, the more it seems to me that the instinctual stackings are nothing more than a false trichotomy; that to treat one as automatically inferior to another is inherently untrue.

But overall, in terms of deciding which instinct fits best, these links should provide some worthy information:

Hope that helps :)

Oh, and I almost forgot that I love, love, LOVE hugs and snuggling. :laugh:

But I have heard somewhere that this is actually related to Self-preservation rather than Sexual because it is physical... Is that true? :huh:

I don't think this page's description has successfully disengaged itself from 6-ness in general.

I'm sorry, but I don't get what you mean. :/ (sorry for my bad english)

I thought I was a sp/sx, but then I saw this site and now I think I'm a so/I-don't-know. Maybe it's helpful somehow?

Based on this, I'm Sp/Sx. I relate to the Sp about 80%. It fits me well. However, the Sx description is way too vague and dumb-downed, in my opinion, and I don't relate to either Sx or So. Not every Sexual 6 is aggressive and counterphobic. In general, I think I relate to Sx slightly more than Sp, though. There are some aspects of all the instincts that I don't relate with at all.

Why sorry? That was perfect English, far better than most English-speaking natives on this forum.

What I mean is that some of what I'm reading on that page simply describes the type 6.

Heh, thanks. ^^

Hum... Yeah, that page describes the type 6, but it describes in a way in which you could identify your instinctual variant. In my case, what I found a little weird is that depending on the instinctual variant profile I read, I identify with a different variant. I really thought I was sp/sx, but in the 4's page of this site (I'm an e4), I see myself clearly in the so variant... While not identifying neither with sp or sx.

It's varying too much for me, I'll just keep myself to mbti and enneagram. xD

Instinctual variant is usually the hardest to determine. :yes:
Especially in my case. :laugh:

How does that solve anything? Unfortunately, there is also more than one enneagram theory. So which one are you going to keep to?

That doesn't solve anything about the instinctual variant... And I didn't know there was more than one enneagram theory...

I don't know what I'm gonna keep. I've just made a test that said I'm a social 4, and I identify with the 9types.com social 4 profile, so I'm leaning to social 4. Do you know any other site that could help me typing myself? Maybe it could help Hazashin too?
