[Type 6] How do you differientiate a 7 w 6 from

[The Great One]

Yes.

Well that's good. It's always good to get confirmation from the same type as yourself.

I remember me being in a library. At first, I read a biography of Axl Rose, a 6w7. He appeared clearly that he was a paranoid, frustrated guy, opposing himself to others and above all to himself, violently rebelious and reactive but also lean on obsession about security, discipline and auto-sabotage. Outward, though, he was often joyful, nice and party-seeker.

Then I read a bio of Freddy Mercury, a 7w6. And my impression was totally different. Freddy Mercury was grandiose and super optimistic. He didn't seem to have any doubt or be imagining the worst, only imagining the best. And just after that I read a bio of Steven Tyler, a 7w8 and similarly I got the impression that Steven Tyler was a marvelous elf full of optimism.

Now, 7w6 can be anxious, but they tend to disperse their anxiety in positives options and usually imagine the best. 6w7 are often joyful and in a good mood, but feel like there's some forces oppposing to them, and tend to imagine th worst when it's time to take action.

See it's hard to differentiate because I have PTSD from hell.

Theses kinds of troubles are not rares for 7w6.

You may be a tad more outgoing (and anxious) than me.

I just read that and I'm still right in the middle between those two types. If 6 was red, and blue was 7, then I would be purple.

I really wouldn't know. I think that I've met one confirmed ENTP woman in my entire life, and that's it. ENTP women are rare as hell and the other two that I knew that I thought were ENTP turned out to be ISTP.

 

[Halla74]

Thanks but I'm pretty sure I'm not ESTP. I have very little Se if any.

You're welcome.
BTW, I'm pretty sure I wasn't insuiting you were an ESTP.
I was only pointing out that there are commonalities between EXTP types, many of which are described in your earlier self-specific comments.

Here is a video of me if you wanna check it out though. I just posted it on another threadhttp://youtu.be/vGtpBNufH5U

Are you offering a video of yourself as indicative of how male ENTP behaviors should appear to the casual observer?
Just curious.

No there was another dude on the forum who said he could type people based on facial expressions. I thought maybe if you saw a video of me, it would help you to type me better.

Gotcha. I understand where you were coming from now. Thanks for the clarification.

An interesting concept.
It is my belief that it is possible to determine people's physical characteristics via observation of their physical behaviors.
A photo of someone predictive relevance for a given moment in time.
A video tells more about a person, but again only so much, and only for a short time period.
Several videos taken over time with an understanding of the events of the subjet's life at the time of each video is worth a hell of alot more.

Yes, it is possible to determine someone's MOOD at a given moment via FACIAL EXPRESSION, or BODY LANGUAGE.
But, not foolproof.
And, IMHO, not a very accurate way to determine someone's MBTI type, or independent cognitive preferences either.

I'm not doubting those who say they can do so, but I've also never seen a well constructed case or objective body of evidence that substantiated such a claim either.

Cheers,

Well, like I was saying in another forum, I am much more moral than most Ti types I know, and also I am a lot more emotional. It really confuses me.

congratulations on figuring out your type!

Edit: I'm not going to spoil the surprise (we talked over the phone about it) but let's just say when you combine his enneatype + MBTI, the reasons behind his typing problems are very understandable.

Apparently I'm a 2 w 3 ENTP. When I found that out all I could say is "WHAT...THE....FUCK?"

 

[CzeCze]

good post
based on my phone conversations with him, I don't think he's 7w8.

Ooh, how do you know each other?

Say whhhhhat? How'd you come to that conclusion? Do you know your instinctual stack?

[MENTION=15607]The Great One[/MENTION] gave me his number when he was on personalitycafe to ask me a few questions about his type, give my analysis after interacting with him, and because he was bored and wanted another Ne dom to chat with (he's not gay, in case that's what you were thinking lol)

 

[The Great One]

[MENTION=1009]CzeCze[/MENTION]

I highly doubt I'm a 2 w 3 core type. I think that I'm a 6 w 7 core type, then 2 w 3 heart type, and 9 w 8 head type. My variants are SO/SX/SP Also, yeah we knew each other through PerC. Also no, I am not gay, and don't have any romantic interest in [MENTION=5684]Elfboy[/MENTION].

LMAO. I can relate a bit. He seems to have a heavy 8 fix that I don't though.
