This raises a question: can all 16 of those types get laid like rock-stars? Or will some always do better than others?
That's the million dollar question. Personality page gives a breakdown of how different types function in the romantic sphere: http://www.personalitypage.com/html/relationships.html
I think how well each type does depends on environment and culture. As we know, what will get you laid in America might not work in Korea or Norway. In America/England/Australia/Canada and extroverted countries like this, obviously being a talkative extrovert is a huge advantage over being an introvert. I'm an introvert by nature but I've learned to push myself to be able to survive in an extrovert culture, although it can be tiring as hell sometimes.
And then being an S on the S-N scale is better. The S types are more in the moment, sensual, spontaneous. Their brains are wired to react quickly and fluidly in social situations. An S is going to be ideal for approaching girls in day game where you have to really be in the moment and come up with shit to say on the fly without thinking much about it. The Ns can get caught up in their head and think too much. So the S has the advantage in game. The Fs are better for game than the Ts I think, Fs are feelers, they are the ones better equipped to provoke strong emotions in women and connect with them better at the heart-to-heart level. Ts are thinkers and rational people. Having rational and logical conversation with women will dry up their vag quicker than a desert wind. So the advantage goes to the F types. As for J vs P, I think P has more of an advantage though I don't think it's nearly as important as the other 3.
So I think the ideal player will have an ESFJ or ESFP personality. I'd expect the stereotypical "rockstar" to be an ESFP. At the very least it's going to be the ES types that are mostly going to be the naturals with women. INT types will have the hardest time. But there's always exception. Einstein was an INT and supposedly he was quite a lady's man too, but I don't know if that was prior to his fame or after. But nonetheless, an INTJ like me is probably never going to be as naturally good as an ESFP.

I don't think your "type" changes. These are temperaments, something you are born with. You can manage them, even effectively, but they will always remain your underlying nature.
I agree. Although you can develop yourself to be a more balanced person. Like a strong NT type that is always caught up in their head can learn to let go more and be in the moment. Introverts can learn how to enjoy socializing. They will always be introverts because much of this stuff is genetic, but they can learn to at least roll with the punches and be social when there's a need.
