15 - ES - EPMI>SACO

Similar to 1s, 15s want to be remembered and recognized. 1s deliberately do immoral things and come up with new ideas about the world’s structure, which makes them look inadequate and antisocial. So, how do 15s, that actually do value morality, achieve their primary objective? Before we get into that, it is important to recognize that 15s are very, very smart, just as much as 1s, they just use their wits for solving social problems, not objective reality-related ones. They see the patterns not in real-life phenomena, but in people’s behaviors, subtle actions, movement of facial muscles, and emotions they express, to almost immediately construct a detailed perception of the person’s character, values, and motivations. They then use these perceptions to befriend the person, and then another, and another, until they have a circle of loyal friends, where 15 is the center of that circle. The purpose of the circle, in the eyes of the 15, is to tell others about how unique and special 15 is. These other people then join the circle, and the cycle repeats.

15s enjoy sex and physical comfort very much, but they do not want to attach themselves to any one person, so usually they have sex on the side. Sometimes this can grow into temporary laziness, but 15s usually snap out of it when they need to engage with the circle. They like parties with lots of food, where they can make friends and expand their circle. They do sports to stay healthy, and if they are good at it can even become athletes, which can help make them famous. Of course, being a professional athlete is usually physically painful, so 15s weigh their options and often decide to do something else.

In the process of creating their circle, 15s engage with people on such a personal level that the inductees believe they have an exclusive and meaningful connection with the 15. Usually, this grows into a mutual romantic interest between the 15 and the inductee. The problem is that this romantic interest exists between 15 and many different people. This interest on the side of the 15 is genuine, they are truly attracted to, or at least interested in, many people at the same time. Plus, this creates an interesting social situation, with multiple interests from different people, and 15s enjoy navigating these complex social situations, just like 1s enjoy solving puzzles or complex mathematical problems. 15s usually understand the social and moral norms quite well and can adapt to new social norms with ease. They use their knowledge of the moral norms to create and expand the circle, and then promote themselves.

15s don’t understand structures and hierarchies, they don’t respect status and positions, they see people for the content of their character, which obviously does not help them at work, where they need to listen to the manager, or run businesses where you have to be the manager yourself. The same could be said for 9s, 13s, and 11s, but they have their own unique solutions to these problems, unlike 15s. And so instead of understanding how things work, 15s want to know and learn how to do things. 15s work well as journalists, writers, social workers, or volunteers. Any type of work that requires memorization of large amounts of information is not for them, they have poor memory.
