These people are unafraid of breaking social norms. They see the world as a complicated place with a competing sense of values and traditions. Because they prefer not to see the world through a lens of right and wrong or governing models of morality, they are likely to reassess and reexamine power structures and systems.
Unlike Values-Accepting people, they value fluidity over tradition.
These people do not follow traditional pathways in relationships, but instead, consider deeply what is the best path for themselves and for their partners given the specifics of who they are and what they need.
They may find imposed cultural constructs like marriage challenging to accept and certainly don’t take for granted that there is one right way to have a relationship. They're well-matched with others who score high in Values-exploration and may want to avoid those who do not score high, as the attachment to established systems may stifle them.
As an employee, these people may be thought of as challenging as they don’t accept authority for authority’s sake. They're better suited in leadership positions and even more so in roles of activism or social justice. They may also be drawn to the arts as these pursuits allow for the expression of values unencumbered by structured norms.
