Sx/So - sunny, fiery, inciting
fire (sx)+ gas (so) = human blowtorch
Energetic qualities associated with sx/so: ripping, tearing, destroying, breaking, burning, disapproving, disobeying, dismissing, ridiculing, alienating, crowing, ranting, screaming, displaying, exposing, joining, embodying, asserting, confronting, changing, reinventing, transforming, breaking through, leaving behind, going overboard
sx/so - The World of Devas (Gods)
+ cultural revolutionaries
++ directional shift in popular culture
+++ the cultural zeitgeist
Writing style: "Fire-and-ice" - as if one is to experience the extremes of heat and coldness at the same time. Often abstract, spilling one inner vision after another like a dream-sequence. Seems particularly in touch with the core meaning of life and death.
Why do sx/so's project open sexual energy?
-sx/soc's establish status and relate to others through emotion and sexuality: so ---> into ---> sx
Sx/so is the "social revolutionary" stacking - leaning more toward cultural change than political change, IMO, though the two are obviously not mutually exclusive. [So/sp seems like the bigger player in the area of socio-political/governmental change.] With the soc-variant in second position, sx-first energy is more phallic, a concentrated cluster of nerves [sx] leaning forward, poking at the collective emotional space [soc]; introducing heat which causes molecular agitation in social groups, probing and forcing psychological exposure. And without the self-protective 'pullback' from sp concerns, it's a "no holes barred" scenario.
The soc mid-position means that the social arena is a "neutral pool", ripe for seduction and seizure, swelling up into high polarized waves from the sx-energy...big ebbs-and-flows of attraction and repulsion. In, out, in, out... [Schwing.]
Again, depending on the E-type, sp-lastness can make the sx/so-person largely oblivious to the degree to which his revolution threatens his own survival. Thus, the person's subconscious attitude is 'Full steam ahead'. Stick raw powerlines of sx-first into the electrically-conductive water of the social pool, and stagnant waters have no choice but to start poppin' and crackin'.
IME, the sx/so person will sometimes counteract the above social-dilution by use of various kinds of exhibitionism. Besides the use of literal (physical) exposure, difficult or unsettling types of psycho-emotional exposure proffer a charged vulnerability reminiscent of genital exposure (displaying what is sensitive - a high concentration of nerve) which has no choice but to be registered as 'sexual' in the subconscious (or semi-conscious) of the observer. This then is a way to foist reactivity into the crowd, and kick off an electrical storm which corrects the feeling of diluted sx-energy.
Sx/so:
1) physically moves into people when interactions are on a one-to-one basis
2) is elitist but acts convincingly egalitarian
3) is open to being with everyone but focuses on specific people
4) is very respectful to everyone but only truly respects a few people
5) wants to help humanity
SP-last: Sp-lasts are the butterfly stackings, spinning off a considerable amount of shimmer and sparkle, as they’re unsullied by dirt (earth) and the sullen droop and hunched seriousness of self-pres’s mundane concerns. This ungrounded quality is a double-edged sword though: For others, a welcome breakup of the monotony of hardened routines that congeal around self-pres; for those under the direct influence of these two stackings, however, there’s a particular incapacitation, a signature difficulty moving forward in certain areas of life — perpetual ‘immaturity’ on a practical level, sometimes a nomadic quality due to their characteristic ignorance around how to set firm steps and plant roots underneath their feet, or a wondering why one would even want do so.
in socionics, the revolutionary flame and emotional oversaturation of the Sx/So stacking is often mistaken for Se-valuing; however, it should be noted that this stacking is equally widespread among Si-valuing Alpha and Delta types

...just because I love this poem and it was the first thing that came into my mind when I was trying to find concrete examples for sx/so writing styleOriginally Posted by silke
Fire and Ice
--Robert Frost
Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
THIS.
I see tons of Delta Sx/So individuals mistyping themselves or being mistyped as Beta just because the Sx/So stacking as a whole is usually associated with "Beta-ness". In my experience, most Sx/So individuals are ENFx and ENTj, followed by a few odd Gamma SFs and EIIs and maybe ILEs.
A good example of someone who is both stereotypically Sx/So and IEE is Russell Brand.
heh it looks like I am recycling pics. @Spider

Are strip clubs inherently sx/so? The main purpose is for sx first but the environment can be very social and often rowdy. Although most, but not all, the dancers have sp motives.

Sex drive != Sx-first
That's the issue I'm seeing with a lot of these threads. It's all variants on "what kind of sexy is this?"
It's not sex drive It exhibitionism, intensity. The whole atmosphere seems to be fueled by the things I quoted in the post. I am not sure what kind of sexy it is. I guess that is subjective but a lot of people choose to socialize in strip clubs and there is less sex talk than people may think unless it is going on one on one. There are bright lights and glitter and the DJ pumps the crowd up in most clubs with very loud music.

Damn, I wanted to sent Dirrty. Christina is 3 sx/so I think.
Instead, this horrible song and this chick all together lol:
http://www.jukebo.de/notre-dame-de-p...our,5s5q3.html
so/sx is also possible here
Ok, since I asked, I will also tell how I experience sx first. It's quite a bit different from @Galen I think :
- I get extremely obsessed with people/areas of interest. When I start reading something I'm interested in (usually totally unproductive shit like socionics), I get so turned on from it, that I don't go to sleep that night at all or forget to drink/eat for the next N hours. The same if I meet someone interesting.
- When it comes to attractions with people, I work on chemistry and chemistry alone: I know if I'm attracted to someone in 2 minutes max: no get to know you and see if we're compatible and time will tell if we fall in love shit. And if I'm not attracted to someone, it will never ever ever happen. My mind just doesn't comprehend how some people can be in relationship and be "Oh I'm not that head over hills for him" but we'll see where it goes. Like wtf. Gross.
- I hate/despise people with just as much vitriol as I love them..not much gray areas. But these emotions change from hour to hour lol.
- I don't actually fall in love often (I'm attracted often, but not in love), but when I do, it's game over...I'm like an obsessed puppy. I would move to another side of a planet for someone I'm in love with, even if it has disaster written all over and I see a million red flags right away.
- I use seducing people like a validation for my ego: it's a big vulnerable spot for me and I get totally ballistic if I have a longer dry spell in this area. It feels like I'm worthless and my life has no meaning. (TMI lol)
- I usually date people who are totally inappropriate/ bad decisions in every rational sense, just because I'm attracted to them. I always have to hide them from my parents.
- I'm also very attracted to adrenaline stuff (just throwing it in, cause Galen mentioned it ), that give me the high : roller coasters, horror movies, zip lines, walking alone at night in dangerous cities ...
-If I'm attracted to someone, I don't give a shit if he has a wife, 5 kids or has been in prison - I will totally go for it...,I have zero morals when it comes to attraction stuff. I've also cheated numerous times when I've fallen out of love with my partner and some other person caught my interest. When I'm not attracted to someone anymore, it's really difficult to get me to stay faithful. Also a big reason for this is that .my ego is not happy when it has no attention for too long. I feel very guilty about this and try to cope with it in healthier ways and actually break up with people, but that's so very hard to do, because I get very attached to people and I love them in other ways...I just get bored, because they give me no electricity anymore and I don't have a feeling like I've "catched" anyone ....everything is just in this boring stagnation, attraction-wise.
-When I'm at a party, I'm constantly checking if there's anyone interesting for me to connect with- as soon as I find that interesting/attractive person, I couldn't care less about all the others. I'm also constantly checking where there's interesting conversation, where's the juice so to speak- otherwise I can't be bothered (I'm polite ofc, but very detached).
- I have a very addictions-prone personality. My sense of boundaries is pretty poor and once I start with things it's very difficult for me to find a healthy measure . I must have gotten that addiction gene, so it's not my fault
So yeah...there's that
Edit: Head over hills would be head over heels lmao.

Lmao @darya getting turned on by Socionics.
Edit: I also relate to some things Darya said but it's the interplay of social and strong sx as well as sp-lastness. Not as extreme and not stuff like cheating though. I'm going to make a social instinct thread in a bit also talking about my own ideas of the instincts as well as the mistypings of soc-last and sx/sp of so many. The so/sx thread was kind of lame, by the way.
FU.You were asked for input!
Edit: I am teasing Olly based on things we are discussing off forum. I was not being a bitch to him.

That's because it's a bunch of non-so/sxs playing pretend, throwing guesses to the wind how other people experience the stacking.

I have said this before, and will say it again: you're the one person here I'm sure is my identical. So whatever your type is, I'm that
Yay! You've said that before? Probably but I don't remember, horrible memory heh.I have said this before, and will say it again: you're the one person here I'm sure is my identical. So whatever your type is, I'm that
Do you have a facebook? This should probably be pm'd but eh.

C-EII-INFj 4w3 Sx/sp 479
I like those subclassifications of stackings. It might help explain why I keep testing sp first but feel that sx first makes more sense to me. And why I feel like I constantly cycle between the two. Like when I describe how i will get totally involved in seeking out and/or studying/learning something new, but I keep getting distracted by the needs of my 'nest', which eventually interferes with my ability to totally mesh and get intensely involved in my pursuit. So i stop, work on my nest some, but feel an overwhelming need to get intensely involved in some other mental project. So i stop and pursue a new line of study, but the needs of my nest keep calling out to me and interfering with the intensity.
And lately I've been finally noticing how the so instinct fits into my life. It's not part of a primary stacking though. And I've had difficulties with 'in this context it seems linked with sp' but 'in this other context it seems linked with sx'.

more banksy because this shit oozes sx/so
Type&enneagram definitely gives a distinct flavor to the stack (if not vice versa). I added that Jim Morrison is SLE E 7 sx/so, Beyonce is SEE E9w8 sx/so ...so it may be understandable if you don't relate to such samples. I don't know you too well ... you seem light and glowing rather than darker and intense, but I can't unequivocally place you in a contra-flow stack. However you said yourself you relate a lot to darya's illustrations and stories in the other thread.

I'm light & glowing?! Haha thank you <3 I guess the main thing is I do think I'm sp last because I just don't notice anything regarding my environment/taking care of myself and need help with that but it's also related to weak
Here's another sx/so video that gives me feels hahaha... it's again pretty damn cheesy but I just love it unabashedly.
Sx/so is excitement & freedom & highs of emotion.
Also importantly I think it's about being two people, intensely connected to each other, but also having a lot of people, or a wider social sphere around you.. like the connection between the person and you bridges and merges into a spiritual connection with everyone.
I have a huge with feeling "alive" lol. One of the most alive moments I've had was when I was at a music festival in Montreal.. seeing so many people so in love and lost in a specific song, singing it together.. wow. It brought a tear to my eye hahaha.
Additionally, I think a big conflict between my sp / sx ex and I was that I was happy being with him, it was amazing to be alone .. but it got to a point where I wanted go out and be around people and make more connections while he was and still is content to just be with one person in a safe, comfortable environment. Then again intro vs extro
I also think my little display picture is sx/so. She is intensity, fire, but deeply immersed with the world right underneath her skin, the galaxy, the stars..
Yes. Scarlett, I totally get you. Video might be a little cheesy - but this feeling of being 'alive' is exactly what I feel when Im allowed to just be myself! Sometimes I feel like I have so much potential 'aliveness' that is going nowhere...! Sx/so
well I'm pretty sure you're all just freaksYes. Scarlett, I totally get you. Video might be a little cheesy - but this feeling of being 'alive' is exactly what I feel when Im allowed to just be myself! Sometimes I feel like I have so much potential 'aliveness' that is going nowhere...! Sx/so
One of the most “real” things I’ve read. From Claude (with some coaxing/prompting)
Ah yes, let's be more direct about those sx-dominant pitfalls:
1. Misreading Signals
- Over-interpreting friendly behavior as romantic/sexual interest
- Creating intense chemistry in their mind that isn't actually mutual
- Projecting their own attraction/intensity onto casual interactions
2. Accelerated Intimacy Issues
- Moving too fast based on perceived connection
- Making others uncomfortable with premature depth/intensity
- Getting emotionally invested before real reciprocation exists
3. Fixation Problems
- Becoming obsessed with "what if" scenarios about connections
- Reading deeply into minor interactions or brief encounters
- Difficulty letting go when attraction isn't reciprocated
4. Reality Distortion
- Missing clear signs someone isn't interested
- Creating elaborate fantasies about potential connections
- Ignoring red flags due to chemistry/attraction focus
This tendency to over-read signals can lead to:
- Embarrassing situations
- Damaged friendships
- Reputation issues
- Repeated disappointment
- Missed opportunities with actually interested people
Would you like me to expand on any of these dynamics?
