⚠️ 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗰𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮 𝗦𝗫𝟴 𝟏) 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 "All, without exception, were possessive people in love relationships or with friends, things and situations." If they're chill with sharing their partner, friends, clothes or their spotlight without feeling the urge to control the situation… sorry, that's not a sexual eight. SX8s own what they love. 𝟐) 𝐃𝐨𝐞𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐠𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐣𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐲 𝐨𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐞 "They were deeply angry, intolerant of weakness ... It made them impatient to the point of histrionics and explosion. ... During the process, they became aware of revenge as a response to anything that did not agree with their will." If someone doesn't have that explosive streak when crossed or never secretly fantasizes about getting back at someone who hurt them, this isn't it because SX8s burn, and they do it fast. 𝟑) 𝐒𝐨𝐟𝐭 𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩𝐬 "Sexual E8s control the partner by completely dominating them, distancing them from friends and acquaintances, making them dependent." If a person doesn't have a need to own their partner, emotionally or physically, or if they let people float in and out of their world without a second thought, they're not a SX8 𝟒) 𝐄𝐦𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐨𝐤𝐞 "He is also a more provocative person, who flaunts, who proclaims that his values are different from the norm." SX8s push and they're not afraid to challenge, stir things up, or throw gasoline on fire just to see how it burns. If someone tends to hold back to preserve peace, that person is not this subtype. 𝟓) 𝐇𝐚𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 "Four of them cited the fact that they did not recognize paternal or maternal authority. ... They all broke the rules of society, did not respect the laws of the world." This subtype hates being under control. If someone naturally trusts systems, obeys rules, or actually respects traditional power structures, that's a dead giveaway they're not SX8. 6) 𝑫𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒏𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒇𝒓𝒐𝒎 𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒕 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒂𝒅𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆 "They all looked for adventures, challenges, risks and a lot of adrenaline." If someone tends to avoid danger, doesn't chase excitement and prefers the safe route both emotionally and physically, they aren't this subtype, because RISK is in their blood. 7)𝑫𝒐𝒆𝒔𝒏’𝒕 𝒎𝒂𝒔𝒌 𝒗𝒖𝒍𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒃𝒊𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒔𝒊𝒕𝒚 "They could develop an armor to hide the devaluation." SX8s don't show their wounds easily. If someone is openly vulnerable, emotionally soft or quick to admit weakness, especially without rage or control layered on top, that's not the defense style of this subtype. 8)𝑬𝒎𝒐𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒕𝒂𝒎𝒆 𝒐𝒓 𝒊𝒏𝒅𝒊𝒇𝒇𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒆𝒅𝒖𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 "Their power comes from a greater seduction, from a greater power of fascination, which differentiates them stylistically from others." If someone is emotionally flat, indifferent to charm or doesn't use attraction to exert power, they're not a SX8. This type moves through magnetism, always in the spotlight and intense.
