The Kinsey Scale - Page 2 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Rinndalir · 03-07-2007, 08:55 AM

Voted 0, not sexually attracted to other men at all.

I have plenty of gay friends and always had a blast when I went to gay clubs back in my clubbing days. I have flirted with, kissed, and groped other dudes when someone dared me that I wouldn't. I'd have a 3-way with a girl and another guy in a heartbeat provided it was understood between me and the other guy that we're there to pleasure her and not each other. I'm very comfortable with my sexuality and men just don't do anything for me at all, but that won't stop me from having some fun or getting my groove on (with a girl).

skier · 03-07-2007, 09:05 AM

I voted zero, as i had never had any inclination, awake or asleep(dreams) to have sexual contact with an other male. I'm not disgusted by it, i feel nothing at all when i try to think of a male in that way.

I voted myself a 2, and I scored a 2.83 on the test. Most of my past I've only been interested in, and sexually active with, men (I'm a guy). However the last year or two I've been dating more women and I think I'm heading in that direction.

Wow!

I feel strange about all those internet arguments I've had (usually with fundy christians) about not being able to "retrain" gays, how amusing...... I'm wrong!

......would you care to elaborate?(No problem if not.....it's pretty private stuff

)
Did you meet a special girl....men get a little boring.....what!??

I used to think that I couldn't get out of girls what I could get out of guys...if that makes sense. Now I feel that isn't always true. And one girl made me discover this.

World's King · 03-08-2007, 12:03 PM

So I took the test... 4.05

I had given myself a 1.

Atropos4 · 03-08-2007, 03:51 PM

2.19 on medusa's posted test....I figured myself at a 1 or 2 so I'm not surprised.

My score on The Sexuality Spectrum Test:
Bi/Slightly Straight
(You scored 10 (-52 being completely gay, 0 being bisexual, and 52 being completely straight))

"For the most part, you are bisexual. You have a slight preference for the opposite gender, but either gender would suit you. If you are sexually inexperienced, it is possible that this will change after you do some experimenting."

Again...not surprised.

Ourcrazymodern? · 03-09-2007, 11:53 AM

& here I thought the "Kinsey" scale had ten points! Damn.

I got a 2.81 and a zero.

digme · 03-10-2007, 02:36 PM

I think this is a great way to think about sexuality. Sometimes i think our culture is very binary about sexuality (straight or gay, no other possibilities). I think our society would be much healthier if we though of sexuality as a continuum or possibilities.

panner · 05-12-2007, 08:23 PM

I gave myself a 2 and scored a 2.14 in the test

MrFriendly · 05-13-2007, 01:10 AM

I gave myself a 2, yet scored a 1.05.

I have extremely close bonds with my male friends though, and have always been able to develop very strong platonic relationships with men and women, but especially guys.

My close male friends and I are openly affectionate, as in, we hug when we haven't seen each other in a while, and hug when we say goodbye, stuff like that.

tenniels · 05-13-2007, 08:44 AM

I rated myself a one, and on the link I scored a 1.1, so I guess I was about right. I didn't realize that who you socialize with had an impact on something like that. I'm a female and most of my friends are female, so I don't know what that means. I would have scored myself a 1 anyways, because I have kissed a girl, but it was more for the guys anyways *laughs* And I find women really beautiful and don't see anything wrong with someone being gay.

toxic515 · 05-13-2007, 06:24 PM

odd. I chose 2, but got a .95 and a 0 respectively. I really guessed myself more like 1.5, but rounded up.

KendraJade · 09-27-2010, 07:46 PM

I scored myself as a 2... took the test and it was about a 1.5... close enough. I've always identified with being bisexual though. I'm very attracted to women, just prefer men. So???

Willravel · 09-27-2010, 07:58 PM

"incidentally homosexual" = oops I slipped?

Cimarron29414 · 09-28-2010, 11:35 AM

I picked 1, only because I can tell when males are handsome.
