Sexual Four тип личности MBTI

Личность

"Какой тип личности является Sexual Four? Sexual Four - это тип личности ISFP в mbti, 4w3 - sx/so - 468 в Enneagram, SLUEI в Big 5, ESI в Socionics."

[1/2] 𝐒𝐞𝐱𝐮𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐄𝐍(𝐅) Since I made this argument a while ago (https://www.personality-database.com/comment/7424648?profileID=344798), it seems that people still try to idealize this subtype by exaggerating specific traits from Chapter 4 of Sexual Four section of Envidia (cheerful, creative, dramatic) and use those specific traits to justify this subtype being EN(F) as if the exaggerated traits are the MAIN aspect of this character. Therefore, in this argument I’d like to debunk this correlation by using the fundamental aspects of SX4 and EN(F) and why this combo is ridiculous. As for Socionics, I’d spare extra paragraphs since there are majestic arguments that ultimately debunked EIE for SX4: (https://www.personality-database.com/comment/8402890?profileID=344798 and https://www.personality-database.com/comment/8244517?profileID=344798). Without further ado, let’s get started. The Point Four is fixated on Ego-Melancholy, which stems from Image Ego. This ego is rooted from relational instinct. This ego stems from a sense of being criticized in childhood or a sense of having their identity be questioned, which arises a sense of being inherently flawed. We could understand this fixation as a cognitive distortion that one is inherently flawed by nature. This is why this fixation is also known as False Lack. Due to the psychic poison of Jealousy, this fixation would make the person jealous with other people's lives, since this ego feels that other people aren’t flawed like them and have achieved happiness. Therefore, a natural question arises from this ego, “why must I have been denied a proper life?” (Ichazo on Point 4). Since the Image Ego is concerned with one's relationship with others, this fixation would project this false sense of lack to others. This projection would become the passion of Envy. Naranjo explained that Envy is “a painful sense of lack and a craving toward that which is felt lacking” (Character & Neurosis). This passion makes the E4 feel that they have to incorporate something good from outside of oneself. Envy contains the self-frustration aspect of it, since its excessive craving of love would never satisfy the inner sense of scarcity and badness, but instead makes the person suffer more and more. Therefore, frustration is the natural consequence of Envy. This passion could be understood from its relative position in the Enneagram. Envy is situated between the Vanity of E3 and Avarice of E5. E5 is characterized by giving up expectations to the outside world and concerns in holding one’s energy, while E3 is also a part of Image Ego, the ego that concerns with one’s image. While E3 identifies with parts that coincide with self-idealized images, E4 identifies with parts that fail to fit the self-idealized image. Therefore, we could understand this character as a character that is animated by a vanity that fails to reach its goal because of the admixture of the sense of scarcity and worthlessness (of Point 5) that ultimately manifests in forceful reaching out and intense demand for that which is missed (Character & Neurosis). When this ego structure meets the relationship-oriented Sexual instinct, this would create a character that is driven by the need to forcefully demand what is lost in the relational sphere. Ichazon named this neurotic need as “Competition” while Naranjo named it as “Hate”. This neurotic need could be understood as a intense, forceful demand of what they lack to other person that they deem have the qualities they don’t, which results in a kind of competition between the SX4 and the idealized person out of the SX4’s inferiority to deprive what the idealized person has. The Envy in SX4 is the closest with the literal meaning of envy, forcefully demanding what others have which results in hate to other people due to inner frustration caused by a sense of suffering from childhood. This forceful demand could be called a “cannibalistic impulse” - it is not only wanted, but it is wanted with anger (27 personajes en busca del ser). Naranjo explained that Hate is the sin of Cain - “I envy you and therefore I kill you” (27 personajes en busca del ser). This subtype aggressively devalues others for their enviable attributes and may become dramatic in their devaluation. At one point they may be aggressively whining to others about their enviable attributes, and at the next moment they would blatantly admit all of their faults. This subtype has the inner motto of "the more I complain, the more I'm going to get”. However, this becomes a vicious cycle, since in adult life, people would not care with someone that would just complain and complain without doing something to get what they’re complaining for, which would result in rejection. This rejection leads to protest from SX4, an aggressive forceful demand of what is missed to people that reject them, and people would reject the SX4 again due to these behaviors.

биография

Sexual Fours make others suffer as an unconscious way of trying to rid themselves of painful feelings of deficiency. In denying their suffering and being more shameless than shameful, they express their needs more and can be demanding of others. In seeking to be the best, they express Envy in its manifestation as competition. They express “an Envy that wants,” unconsciously turning their pain at inner lack into feelings of anger about not getting what they need from others.
