Aegon II Targaryen MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Aegon II Targaryen? Aegon II Targaryen is an ESFP personality type in MBTI, 7w8 - sp/sx - in Enneagram, SLUEN in Big 5, ESE in Socionics.
Aegon is a SX2 analysis Aegon is a pretty good example of a sexual 2 in my opinion, in most scenes he portraits himself as a seducer of social interactions. For example in the last few episodes of season 1 during the dinner scene he shamelessly provoked Jace by hitting on his future betroth, he often shows clear signs of sexual tendencies as is evident all around King’s Lending. Also unlike the other E2 subtypes, the SX2 is the most sensual and physically oriented, which can be clearly see in Aegon’s fixation on sensual pleasure and hedonism. SX2 are also the least intellectual E2 preferring to use empathy and emotional displays to get attention from others which is exactly like Aegon in episode 4 when he openly rejects learning and appears anti-intellectual instead he acts impulsive and irrational, enjoys the freedom of being king. Here are some of the trait structures of the SX2 which perfectly correlates with Aegon’s motivations and desires: “The sexual E2 is a hedonist; his search for pleasure serves the avoidance of pain and of any situation that could potentially lead to frustration, which he cannot tolerate. How could someone tell him no? Or not respond to his need to be adored! To avoid facing this limit he can entangle the other in a persistent promise of pleasure. These seduction games quench the sexual E2’s hedonism as well as his need to break the routine with new experiences. As pointed out by Claudio Naranjo, the desire for pleasure can be considered a substitute for it; and the E2, with his need to eliminate any problematic, bothersome, or non-gratifying part of his life, searches for it in love. His low tolerance to frustration, when he doesn’t feel wanted, leads him to a state of anger and agitation that serves to break the dreaded routine. Hedonism turns him into a consumerist of relations and objects, as he is indulgent in his intense desire to give and to obtain pleasure”. “The sexual E2 finds it difficult to ask. He is incapable of frankly asking for fear of appearing as a human being and not a divine being, so he allows himself to manipulate and adopt an exigent position. Pushing and invading, he takes up more space than the space that is his. He adopts the posture of a deserving narcissist. The vital strategy that he brings into play evokes the obtention of a larger space in terms of attention within his original family. He is impulsive and his motto is: “make love and war.” When he’s going after a goal, he doesn’t look around, and instead focuses exclusively on his desires, which he confuses with real needs. His aggressiveness is expressed in the form of impulsion in the action. Raising his voice, buying the other with affection or whatever he lacks, making a scene and, similarly to the E8, the end justifies the means and the intensity of the action leads to emotional disconnection, which is sometimes confused with the lusty character. This whole mechanism hides the difficulty in tolerating frustration, limits, and the word “no” as an insurmountable barrier; a border that, in its exaggerated dimensions, feels like humiliation”. “The sexual E2 is the most emotional. The sexual E4, also expert in very intense and dramatic emotional manifestations, values nevertheless a more intellectual component in order to exercise sufficient competency in argumentation. In the sexual E2, the incontestable argument is his emotion; things are determined because “I feel this way.” This is his assertiveness, based in his feeling more than thinking and that, in his impetuous disinhibition, brings him a false sense of security and the propensity to be able to obtain everything. His understanding of reality is based more in emotion than in an objective vision of the facts; emotion contaminates everything in the present moment, and in the name of emotion anything goes. He passionately identifies with emotion and is not interested in the logical world and in structured thought, which seem burdensome and arid to him”. I can continue to go on and on but I hope you get my point by now :) We’ll get to see more of him this season so his personality will be more flashed out.
