Kim Wexler MBTI Personality Type

I will go straight to the point. If you voted six core - especially self-preservation on this profile, your view on the enneatype is most likely flawed. However, there is a better alternative which I will try to convince you of, the self-preservation three. Starting, I don't think the head triad - the domain of inner dialogue and paranoia fits her at all. The heart triad seems like a better choice for Kim's typing. "Also called image points, these are people who have sold out their essential being to an image that seems to be required by society." Sixes get dominated by their limiting inner fear of the external world, which usually results in not taking decisive action, restraint, and constant self-doubt (Ego-Cowardice). The current consensus on this profile being E6 conservation is just oddly hilarious. Kim has never shown any of these traits. Instead, she's self-reliant and confident throughout the entire show (Ego-Go), repeatedly finding a way out of all troubling situations for herself and Jimmy. For example, initially, her marriage proposal to invoke the spousal privilege of not having to testify against him. "I dig myself out of this hole. You do your job, Jimmy. Prove you can go one week— hell, one day without breaking the rules of the New Mexico Bar Association or pissing off your boss, and don't insult my intelligence by saying you are doing any of this for me. You don't save me. I save me." Threes are the workers and producers of life, always rushing towards productivity and success. They act as their profession at all times and use propaganda to convince themselves and everyone else around them that they are as efficient as they claim to be. When Kim was a child, no one took care of her. She lived with a poor, shoplifting, and neglectful mother, which eventually made her look out for herself and later others, following the "ideal" responsible and good person pattern through strict practicality and problem solving. I believe this is enough to prove my point, but I will answer any questions and may elaborate further if needed. I will post full descriptions of the sp6 and sp3 in the replies so you can compare them to my argument.
