before i start my argument i just want to state that i find it absolutely shocking how there are almost 80 votes for INFP despite the fact that not a single person on here has provided any evidence whatsoever for francis showing any Fi at all. I also wanna say that i do agree with him using Ne when he throws out suggestions during the planning the murder scene, however the way francis uses Ne here does not relate to how someone with Ne as their dominant or auxiliary function would use it. francis does not expand on, nor does he further theorise his ideas - he simply throws them out in order to support his ideas out in order to support what his dominant Si is telling him - which is that going through with the murder would disrupt his comfort and routine. the only times in the book where francis uses Ne are when he is under stress and is looking for excuses to not do something (ie, the murder). francis does not use Ne as a main approach to life and is not able to expand and elaborate on ideas as someone with Ne much higher in their stack would be able to do. onto dominant Si - francis strikes me as a very unhealthy Si dom; stuck in his ways, lazy, resistant to change. francis constantly makes decisions based on keeping his external environment comfortable and familiar to him. a very evident example of this is in the epilogue where francis is given the choice between marrying a woman whom he hates whilst being able to keep his cushy socialite lifestyle, and being able to live freely and openly as a gay man whilst not having financial backing and having to move away from his cushy socialite lifestyle in order to support himself. francis chooses the former because he would rather sacrifice his sexuality - a fundamental part of who he is as a person! - in order to continue living the lifestyle that he is used to. even when richard suggests that he could get a job, and that richard is doing just fine being financially independent - francis responds: “but you’re used to it”. this is a fantastic example of unhealthy Si dom - francis is happy to sacrifice a key aspect of who he is as a person just so that he can continue living the life that he is used to. onto auxiliary Fe - i also explained this in quite some detail in a reply to my question about his alleged Fi below but i’ll reiterate the main points here. Francis very obviously values the harmony of the group over his own morals. we learn in the book what francis’s morals are - that he doesn’t agree with the murder. we see this when richard overhears him getting hysterical at henry in the winter scenes, and also as mentioned above when he starts throwing inferior Ne suggestions to stop his routine and lifestyle being disrupted by the possibility of being caught and/or going to jail. but despite the fact that francis does not want to go ahead with the murder, he goes along with it anyway. Francis does not grass them up, or actively try to stop what’s about to happen, or try to take control of the situation from henry, or even quietly walk away - he just goes along with it all. and he does this because he values the harmony of the friend group and his relationships with henry, charles and richard over his own morals. this also feeds into his dominant Si as the harmony of the group helps francis feel stability that i mentioned earlier. francis is resistant to and finds great amounts of stress in threats to change to his lifestyle, and part of his lifestyle is his place in the classics group. therefore prioritising the harmony of the group over his own morals helps him feel stable in his lifestyle and routine. there are a couple of other more trivial examples of francis doing the classic Fe moulding into the people around them thing - i talked about this in the reply to the comment i made asking about his Fi that i mentioned earlier but a funny example of this is the hoosatonic scene. here, francis tells the waiter that he pays attention to baseball. this is completely out of character of the francis that richard has been describing to us - nowhere else in the book is francis ever suggested to have these kinds of interests, and he even sneers on other people for having lowbrow tastes in entertainment (“she watches too much television, my mother”, “i’m embarrassed that people will think we’ve been to see such bad movies”) - it’s difficult to tell properly as we don’t see first hand what he is like when richard isn’t around but this is definitely indicative that francis is someone who likes to mould his personality based on the people around him. i really hope that someone can take something from this and i hope that this isn’t too rambly and incoherent!
