I understand the LSI votes, being that this is arguably the most disciplined, committed, and hierarchical E6 subtype, I myself thought this was LSIs archetype for a while and still think SO6 is a very good pick for LSI, but what most of the LSI voters here keep leaving out is SO6s intuition. Archetypically speaking, SO6 is a very abstract, metaphysical type thats disconnected from its body and sensations, and is also more focused on its intuitions than the reality around them, not to mention that SO6 is basically indistinguishable from the SO5 at a first glance, which is why the vast majority of SO6s on this app are all typed as SO5. I’ll repeat it again for those below who didn’t get the memo. SO6 from “Cobardes” ““Sexuality and the disabled body. Yours is an uninhabited, alienated, disidentified body, where an energetic displacement generates devitalization, rigidity, physical and psychic tension. This alienation implies a distance from the corporeal reality, a focus on the mental and a disconnection from sensations, with the consequent unconsciousness of bodily experiences. Thus, the body is experienced as something dissociated” -Does that sound like a type with 4D Si demo? No. This is intuition. Sensations of Sensoric types ““Sensoric types of IM live by sensations in the fullest sense of the word: they have an aptitude for perceiving nature and art, for enjoying all that is visible, audible, palpable. They feel their physical self and its needs very precisely, and have a pronounced rhythm of life.” “Sensoric types are, in the fullest sense of the word, attentive to all their physical needs, considering them an integral part of their physical self.” Sensations of Intuitive types “Sensations of intuitive types are not vivid enough, and these types are constantly absent-minded. They do not even perceive their physical self clearly. Often they are only certain of their materiality while they are looking in the mirror.” -SO6 is the latter And going over more SO6 descriptions “The fearful social lives the predominance of the rational function. a tendency to a philosophical mind. It dissociates from the corporate space realm, which implies a renunciation of their ability to surrender to the enjoyment of living and a blogging of the celebrative side of existence.” A “metaphysical” varnish, together with the propensity for sobriety, gradually forges a chronic attitude of austerity that results in daily renunciations.” “This metaphysics in customs, this “asceticism” that greatly idealizes certain values, dissociating them from the mundane, ends up excluding or minimizing the enjoyment of everyday life. Thus, there is a “freezing” of one's own needs, because they are considered capricious or frivolous…” ““Primal insecurity and uncertainty. This character doubts himself and others. He suffers from the Cartesian syndrome of the evil genius, “paranoid” creation of a mind powerfully questioning both its perceptions and reality itself.” In NO WAY do any the above descriptions resemble a more down to earth sensoric type, especially being that LSI has been repeatedly described as being “sober realists who don’t tolerate fruitless fantasies”. As shown here LSI from Filatova “LSI is inclined towards realism hes interested primarily in concrete and actual problems, rather than hypothetical issues” LSI from Aushra “A sober realist. He never falls into despair or gives in to illusions; always he is equally stable, calm, and logical. He does not tend to fantasies and dislikes other peoples passion for hollow projects.” LSI may be a Ti base which makes them much more intellectual than most other sensors, but at the end of the day, its still a sensor which makes them be a lot more grounded than the above descriptions. “Metaphysics”, “disconnection from the body and mundane”, are not words you use to describe a sensor type. SO6s tendency to things like philosophy and metaphysics are very resemblant of an intuitive type Ive even seen some arguments that claim that Ni demo contradicts SO6, which is funny because E6 at its core is by far and away the most calculating enneagram, before an E6 even acts, a E6 will immediately think of all future outcomes and come up with plans to address each and every worst case scenario, which shows how E6 is a archetypically speaking, a type with very strong Ni usage, as its Ni usage that deals with that. As shown here Socio Ni (Classical Socionics) “Relations between processes that happen in sequence – time. Through this element the individual receives information about the temporal relations between processes, events and actions, about whether there is time left, and whether the future is dangerous or safe.” “This aspect of perception determines one’s ability or inability to predict the future and plan for it, to avoid possible problems and erroneous actions, and to learn from past experience.” This sounds exactly like what a E6 uses during its “cowardice” moments
Biography
This subtype copes with fear by finding a good authority. They think the way to be safe is to follow the rules of their chosen authority, whether a person, a system, or an ideology. They tend to be dutiful, legalistic, intellectual, responsible, and efficient, and they rely on following guidelines or reference points to feel secure. For them, uncertainty and ambiguity equal anxiety. They display a mixture of “phobic” (fearful) and “counterphobic” (confronting fear with strength) behaviors. They see the world in terms of black and white, rather than gray. SO6 Trait Structure and Descriptions: https://wiki.personality-database.com/books/enneagram/page/social-6-in-detail
