This is an improvement of the original machine translation from Russian. As such, I can claim no ownership and am not sure that what I'm doing is entirely legal. Feel free to refer to "Notes on Translations" on my user page here for any confusion about the text. Places where I find the machine translation golden, I shall mention in my comments. Feel free to ignore them, as most do not relate to socionics. Done by a native Russian speaker fluent in English.
This article is on the socionics type LSI, ISTj, the Inspector, , which was nicknamed MAXIM. (I briefly mention who Maxim (Gorky) was on my user page.)
[edit] Male portrait
Reliable, correct, responsible, MAXIM differs, growing prettier with his carriage and wide straight arms - he has a modern military carriage. He will suit any uniform. (Yes, I make awful puns.) True, with his short hair-cut, he appears proper and that fits any clothing. Moves quietly, with measured steps, never does he fuss. This open, volitional, courageous person suggests confidence - it is immediately clear that this person will not become occupied with intrigues or make them.
At first contact, MAXIM displays himself as a correct and benevolent collocutor. He affably smiles, demonstrating joy upon encountering you. He has a bribing smile, due to which his gloomy, locked face magically changes.
If there is no concrete theme for the conversation, MAXIM is not too talkative. He also is not of those who, in a circle of guests, attempt to take upon themselves the role of toast-master. In him, thinking is systematic, and, if you propose a worthy theme, he will provide you with a logical base for anything, starting from the functioning of a computer and ending with skill and love.
Try to shake him up a little, joke, and giggle and you will see, as he suddenly will cheer up and starts grinning in response. The atmosphere of holidays, carnivals, theater performances generally pleases him. He, with pleasure, will spend time in a restaurant, at a bright, beautiful show. He will be drawn into the general merriment at a disco, will run around in a red cap and act like a fool during the New Year’s celebration at the office.
MAXIM not only is responsive to merriment, but he even is touchingly sentimental, although this is difficult to suspect in this strict, dry person. He is capable of being pierced so much by compassion and pity for the hero of a melodrama, he will not be able to cry just a little. On duty with the chief- on MAXIMs sometimes occur assaults of unexpected, unmotivated pity for the colleague, whom should be discharged. Especially if the reason for this is relatives falling ill, a dog dying suddenly or a wife being unfaithful.
But in reality, the main dream OF MAXIM - so that in life there would not be any chaos, any uncertainty; so, for everyone, everything around would be simple, understandable, and reliable. He plans his life and he painfully treats the sudden changes. Furthermore, to him, it is complicated to understand how events will develop. He, with difficulty, will foresee, from where troubles can arise and, in this case, he does not want to listen to the forecasts of those surrounding. All this leads to the fact that MAXIM usually learns only from his errors.
The representatives of this type know their rights and responsibilities well and they are capable of strictly carrying them out; therefore excellent, reliable executives are obtained from them. Probably, this is the only type, which with indignation swats away even one assumption alone about the fact that it is possible to start a romance with a coworker. A coworker for him - not a woman. He is at work in order to work, but not in order to change his love life. He never confuses official and personal relations.
MAXIM - reliable, responsible person, on whom it is possible to rely on, both in the service, and in the family life. But he will not start to act, until they give clear indications or until situation becomes absolutely clear. He, in everything, approaches complete clarity - both in matters and in relations.
A man of 38 years for three years lived with a dear girl (aka his girlfriend). Since it seemed that the relationship between them was good, he asked her to wed him, and, meanwhile, he began to construct a house for his future family. However, it was suddenly, suddenly explained to him that the girl allowed herself a certain romantic adventure with a young man from another city. The first impulse of MAXIM was to cut relations with her, but, in his soul, doubts accumulated: he was unclear, how this could occur, if, as it seemed, everything between them was well. And he decided to first "conduct an inquiry": to have a talk with her openly, since everything should be taken apart; to understand what occurred and how her enthusiasm bore a random, unpremeditated nature; to explain, how he evaluates the prevailing situation; how seriously she is drawn to him and, from what was assembled, what to do further. Without this, he could not undertake any important steps.
To strangers MAXIM relates suspiciously, with distrust, but if we draw him into a conversation about the family, can open up his heart and tell tales to much excess. It is possible to say that representatives of this type treat all with distrust precisely because of their large internal trustfulness and readiness to be opened. But since they are not good at examining people, they prefer not to be opened by anyone, only by a very, very close one.
Thus, if you entered into this circle (for example, (know) someone married to a MAXIM), boldly can you begin to feel as if you passed a rock wall. This, at first glance, serious and gloomy person adores his relatives and is prepared for daily exploits for them. These are good, tender, thoughtful husbands and fathers, for whom the interests of family always stand in first place.
Certainly, in MAXIMs, there are not only responsibilities, but also enthusiasm. They adore to collect things, moreover, things of the most different natures. There can be collections of coins, match boxes, subway tokens, bus tickets, models, tallies and so forth. Men of this type are also drawn by history and politics. Both in the one and in the other they are rather knowledgeable, in any case, with pleasure they speak about them.
MAXIMS do not love to manifest physical force, if only in the worst case scenario. First, they try to dissuade man from his aggressive intents, to regulate matters in a peaceful way. And only if this way completely fails, they strike so that you will not feel a mild sting. (The last part of the sentence is a Russian idiom which literally means “you will not feel a little.” I chose to translate it non-literally.)
Inconvenience in the relations with MAXIMS is connected with their persistent unwillingness to respond to your completely serious business proposals, for example, tomorrows, to quickly glue wallpaper in your kitchen for you. Also your sudden request to give money for a loan will not please them.
[edit] Female portrait
(There is no “X” in the Russian language. There is, but it makes an “H” sound. That is why female “Maxim” is spelled with a “KS” and a “KA” at the end.)
Decent, fit MAKSIMKA - one of the strictest and concrete girls in the socion. Youthful, slender, but, in this case, strong and hardy - in youth, she produces the impression of a real elf. She has a pretty face with symmetrical features, thus, they are not without reason to compare her with Malvina (A tiny, gorgeous heroine of a Russian fable). In this case, she will entangle you not with what another girl would - it is necessary only to turn attention to her clear figure and solid step.
In her clothing, she prefers a strict style, the final lines and the mute tones. The idea of symmetry and uniform (not compulsorily for servicemen (No clue what this means)) is close to her soul. She does not love to stand out and be extravagant; therefore, most frequently, she selects not only calm colors, but also traditional forms. You will never see on MAKSY (the author several times uses a cutesy-fied version of MAKSIMKA) a skirt with a slanting hem or a blouse with an asymmetrical cut.
She avoids the unexpected, which control her (The only translation I could think of that made sense) and she is sufficiently constant not only with clothing, but also with relationships.
During the first encounter, dear smiles will provide a ford for you to cross. With her coquettish views, MAKSIMKA pleasurably will laugh at your jokes and, for some time, support the merriment. She knows how to be charming, and also how to seem tender, brittle, and defenseless, if being so solves, that this is something necessary for her.
But do not be mistaken, inside her - a real iron rod. And, as soon as she feels that the relationship was established, she will more sparsely make eyes at you and more frequently manifest her demanding and own nature. In this case, in their souls, MAKSIMKAs are frequently romantic and lofty, and they also love to imagine themselves as the heroines of any of novel or film.
If you were pleasing to MAKSY, she will not advertise this, letting her partner appear to take the first initiative. Her excessive passiveness can lead to a damping of feelings in this girl. She is oriented so that her partners would look after her, they attained her (Neither I nor my dictionary have any idea what this means), they would prove to her their devotion. This is connected to the fact that she also is not good at seeing in what direction the relationship is developing, and she fears being rejected. Moreover any uncertainty frightens her. And this is one additional reason, due to which she will not be the first to express her feelings.
If MAKSIMKA talks with you, this does not yet mean that you became her friend. The crossbar for confidence in women of this type is raised very high. They do not consider men close friends or loved ones, if they do not trust them 100%.
From the letter of one MAKSIMKA: "Still, it does not please me that my own thoughts and sensations in the evening can completely not coincide with what I thought in the morning. This irritates me.
It happens that I myself cannot be trusted! It is somehow unpleasant. To whom then is it possible?"
Jealousy in the hope of kindling her feelings is not worth provoking within her. She will not fight for you, but she simply will decide, that you – an unreliable partner. You hardly will attain her disposition, also, in such a case, if, after attributing to yourselves mysteriousness, you first disappear, then appear, then ring, then for a long time disappear from her field of vision. You will learn: she will suffer no uncertainty.
If you managed to become worthy of her confidence, you follow through in order not to disappoint MAKSIMKA - the second time, she hardly will believe you. But if this girl saw in you a selfless friend and loyal knight, she will become a reliable and devoted companion.
MAKSIMKA - proper girl, she attempts to live her life without any unexpected contingencies. She knows what she wants; she tries to live according to a plan and does not love it when circumstances interfere with the realization of what was planned. She warily relates to something entirely new. Not only is the next week and output is planned out by her, but there also is a plan for the next two or three months and even for the next two years. Everything is planned: studies, quarry (could also be translated as booty, maybe?; probably means income), marriage, children (periods of generation and a quantity), move to a new apartment, acquisition of a washing machine, a trip abroad.
It is understandable that, in order to carry out all this, a force of will and purposefulness is necessary. Both those and more in MAKSIMKAs exist, moreover these qualities are sufficient not only for her, but also for those surrounding. In this girl you do not spoil (No clue again). To her, it will not exhaust her every day to force those surrounding her to embody her plans in life. Excess MAKSIMKA will neither plan nor begin to make, but if she already had planned on it, then do not rely that this in her will soon pass.
Being accurate, assiduous, and critical, girls of this type usually study well, although do only that which is assigned, and nothing over that. Stormy student life does not draw the strict MAKSIMKAs too much. Many friends do not come about because of their exactingness in the relationships between them. Yes, even thereby they rarely complain about the failures in their personal life and do not tell what develops in their souls.
Family for a woman of this type is very important, since it is a reliable refuge, where she feels protected from the complex external peace. Therefore special attention is paid to the house. Here, there must be order. Relatives will obtain all that is necessary, but nothing in excess. Hungry with MAKSIMKAs no one will remain, but also do not expect deliveries. To say, how, what she cooked, she will not; however, in the refrigerator, there will always be located anything simple, but substantial.
From MAKSIMKAs are obtained strict, demanding moms. And, if they are not stingy to the manifestation of feelings and vigilantly keep abide with measures in the "training" of their fumes, then the latter become positive, brought up and disciplined people.
A high feeling of debt is extended in women of this type not only to family, but also to work. MAKSIMKA is ambitious and attempts to get a career, although in this case never will she begin to disregard her domestic responsibilities. Authorities highly value the industriousness, responsibility and reliability of this brittle girl, which, after some time, perfectly acquires the necessary habits and knowledge. Very soon, it becomes clear that on her, in fact, it is possible to rely on. So that career increase provides a ford with her.
Representatives of this type greatly value the atmosphere of any holiday (most loved - New Year). They never will ignore the significant family dates. They will without fail arrange a domestic celebration with the presentation of gifts, the celebratory meal and the invitation of close friends. Conducting a fairly closed, measured-off means of life, at the same time, they are far away from not enjoying company, to laugh will fool about, but only in case that their company is reliable.
So to have a good time, have a merry holiday and invite MAXIM (or MAKSIMKA). If they know that here they are ready to be entertained and cheered up, then without fail they will arrive. And, it can happen that they even will bring with themselves an additional nose with glasses and whiskers. But they will do so only in such a case, when they are assured that the masters with pleasure will notice their tomfoolery.
