Demonic middle layer: the alter-ego or dark side - the opposite sex and inverse clock position of the Apparent layer - Jung's Anima(-us)
Core layer: how the person sees himself - can be same or opposite sex and same clock position as the Apparent layer
Majority Self: whichever two layers outweigh the third
Minority Self: in this example the Male sex is the Minority Self and the Demonic layer is the Minority Self

LaVey actually went so far as to include the choice automobiles in his Personality Synthesizer. According to him, you will rarely see people on the upper half of the clock exercising their demonic self as it would probably damage their reputation, however people on the lower half have nothing to lose by doing so.
