I'm interested in your thoughts on the distinctions between FJ type 4s and FP 4s. As an extremely varied type, the manifestation of core 4 can be affected wildly by many factors inside and outside of the enneagram system. What difference does Fi versus Fe make?

You know, I never tried to parse it out. I always attributed a sense of authenticity to my Fi, and probably it is informed by enneagram. Things that aren't a little rough do not feel right to me, things that are too plastic aren't real and feel wrong. This sensibility extends from aesthetics to communication. I'm curious now on how a Fe'er works.
