Phenotype Abstractum


Analysis of phenotype, physiognomy and constitution in Abstractum-types.

Abstractum-types tend to be thin individuals who often look small, soft, and delicate, easily making them infantilized by others. Faces usually look smaller and rounder than Magnitudinem-types; a more child-like and slender-limbed quality that is rarely athletic. They also often have a heavy look with traces of lacking in energy or fatigue around the eyes, and may look more depressed than they really are. They rarely smile, something they may not even be aware of. Unlike Fiduciam-types, they are not very verbal or expressive. Instead, they appear silent, concise, and "dry" with a monotone voice that is usually only enhanced with Urbanum secondary in the configuration. However, the content of what they say often reveals a less soft-hearted tendency than many other types, with traces of sarcasm or intellectual arrogance. Especially with Exitium secondary they can become more mentally aggressive, making it easy to confuse them with Magnitudinem-types. With Misericordia co-secondary, they can look somewhat older or coarser, since Misericordia often brings an older looking quality. Abstractum-types are more common among men than among women. (Most people may have had a classmate who was Abstractum, but they are quite rare outside of specialized, intellectual, creative or researching environments.)

Notes on the examples
Famous examples of Abstractum-types are hard to find since it is a relatively invisible type that is rarely seen in popular culture or in public. In those cases where it is possible to find famous examples, these are still difficult to find photographs of since they tend to be philosophers, writers and artists who disappear behind their works. Few Abstractum-individuals become actors, comedians or singers in bands, for example.

It may be difficult to distinguish secondary components merely on appearance in this case since the visible variation is not so great within this type. Their smaller frames and the soft or awkward impression they give off (even in their tone of voice) can make others want to adopt a big brother, big sister, or parenting role for them. Their slow development also contributes to them often getting stuck at a youthful stage, rarely suited to a role of providing for others. It is also common for people to underestimate their intellectual or creative abilities and not take them seriously, or find them unfit for a lot of professions, which further leads to career and cooperation being difficult for them.

Lasse Åberg, Marie Curie, Emily Dickinson, Hila Klein, Hirokazu Tanaka, and the Youtuber xkcdHatGuy probably have Corpus secondary, which leads to one of the least intense human types (only Corpus-types with Abstractum secondary are less intense).

René Descartes, Friedrich Hegel and writer George R.R. Martin may instead have Meritum as the secondary component since they belong to the most intellectual and culturally sophisticated expressions, while Friedrich Nietzsche, Luis Royo, Peter Chung, David Lynch, Eric The INTP, Angry Foreigner, Tarl Warwick and George Ouzounian (Maddox) are example of Exitium secondary. Royo, Chung, Lynch, Eric and Tarl Warwick probably have Libidinem as the co-secondary component, while Angry Foreigner has Urbanum and Maddox has Misericordia.

Hopefully, more examples will appear on Youtube. Youtubers are often the best examples (regardless of type) since they are contemporary and can be experienced directly with moving picture and sound and represents ordinary people, not extraordinary ones.
