View Full Version : Kinsey Scale of Sexual Orientation

I’m sure a good many of you gurls have heard of the The Kinsey Scale of Sexual Orientation. It’s a standardized grading system that is supposed to determine on a numerical scale, how straight, gay or bi you are. 0 on the scale is completely straight and 6 is exclusively homosexual. The numbers in between denote the tendencies in between the two extremes.

My guess is that this came about because we all know how everyone tries to categorize everyone else in this world. Most TV/CD and TG’s also know that it’s not as easy as all that and really…who cares :) Gay and bi crossdressers are a unique entity in that they are attracted to fem things and so that may affect the test.

My personal opinion of the scale is if you don’t take it too serious and get all freaked out about it, it’s actually kind of fun to see the results. Anyhow, if you want to try the test, this link will take you there. Remember…..have fun! I’d love to hear some of your results and opinions on the test itself.

By the way, I scored a 4.8 which according to the scale, states: You are bisexual with homosexual tendancies.

Hey, I've heard of this scale before but never had chance to do the quiz. Thanks for putting up the link ... my score= 3.9 I'm guessing that makes me truly "middle american" :lol:

2.6 You are bisexual with heterosexual tendancies.

Ya, I'd probably agree with that.

1.5 You are totally heterosexual.

Sounds right to me.

I am a 1.6, which means Mostly Heterosexual. As I am what I believe to be a True CD, that is the right definition.

By True CD, I mean a dress because I like to. Not for sexual reasons, or anything else. Just because I like to! No desire to be a woman!

I got a 3.9, which says I'm completely bisexual. Would have been a 4.0 if it weren't for the fact that a lot of my friends are straight (or at least claim they are).

Pity it didn't have any questions relating to crossdressing.

I would have had a completely different score then!

From what I read, Kensey's methods were flawed and unscientific. He let a lot of his own "wishful thinking" get in the way and was not adverse to cheating on his data. He estimated the percentage of homosexuals in the population at 10%----A significant number lached on to by both activists and exploitive politicians.----but more recent data suggests that the number is 3.5% (one standard deveation BTW)--which makes more sense for usual variations in biological "error" rates.

Valeria

While the page mentions the Kinsey Scale, the little test is for the Klein Scale (wherein I scored a 6.9, because I'm totally a homosexual woman).

I'm not at all sold on only 3.5% of the population being gay, btw.

jayme357
04-16-2008, 06:01 PM
Perhaps it is un-scientific (or should it be non-scientific) but it nailed me dead center. Bi with heterosexual tendencies. I think the results are more from my actual experiences than my tendencies. I am totally committed and faithful to my SO and would not change that for anything. My bi tendencies are exclusively related to my female side. When I am in my fem world I am totally immersed in every way. I am the ultimate female. I adore beautiful men. On the other hand when I am in my male personna I adore the women in my life - SO, friends, aquaintances, even beautiful women I see when I am shopping. So, my tendencies seem to be more opportunistic than by design.

Does that make me a bad person?

Jena11
04-16-2008, 07:21 PM
No surprize, I got 5.8, homosexual, Since I see myself as female and am only attracted to females. That fits me.

trannie T
04-16-2008, 07:31 PM
I question the ability of a simple very subjective test as this to be very accurate. For the record I rated a 2.9 bisexual with hetero tendencies. Although I've never been with a man it may be an indicator of my present inclination.

natasha
04-16-2008, 10:34 PM
4.3 Completly bisexual. Duh

Chryl
04-16-2008, 11:28 PM
1.5 here, sounds right to me, but not enough questions or depth of questions to be accurate. Took a net test before, can't remenber the site but much more detailed questions, I'll try to find it again

I like girls mostly, but I want sex with boys, too. Just not a relationship or commitment lol.

ReginaS

2.4, mostly heterosexual. That makes sense. I am attracted to femininity, whether it is in me or a gg. I think the 'mostly' comes from a little fantasy of being perceived by a man as a beautiful woman and :o pleasing him.

CD Susan
04-17-2008, 02:01 AM
I don't put much belief into this kind of games but I will play along here. I got a score of 3.9. Don't know or care what this means but I guess it was fun to have taken the test.

A 4.1, which is indicative of my past experiences. Eventhough I'm deeply in love with my GG SO, when I'm dressed, I can't help but fantasize about what could be. Isn't life wonderful. As Forrest said, "Life is like a box of chocolates....." Hugs, Amber

You are bisexual with heterosexual tendancies. Yet I have more actual experience with the hetero side. Reasonabily accurate I'd say.

Ann D Bluebird

:brolleyes:
As someone who feels attraction to women, but can identify mostly as "asexual", I didn't quite know how to answer this quiz (I use the term diliberately as refering to something trivial and hardly to be taken as "science") "correctly". And what on earth does the bit about how I identify "politically" mean??? does it mean if I am accepting of sexual diversity I tick in the "homosexual" end and if I'm NOT accepting I tick the "heterosexual" end?? That's nonsense, surely??? implication, all heterosexuals are anti gay???:eek::eek: I don't think so!!! Or have I got that all wrong? Someone explain for me.

Stargirl
04-18-2008, 12:24 PM
Maybe it means.. 1. all for the straight/family values/ community, or all the way to the guy in the silver pants and pink hair leading the Gay pride parade. That was how I read it. (my own take)
I scored a bisexual with heterosexual tendencies. That's good to hear. I was worried that I was too straight, and I can't ignore my quirks. Quirks make fantasizing far more interesting. Reality can match the fantasy, and it's a good idea for me to remain open to new experiences. I can get enthused about a female who looks male, or a male who is dressed as a female. I don't need "guilt restrictions." They are useless, when all things are presented in a positive manner.

I scored a 4.3- completely bisexual. I've known this for years and now I guess I have some proof.

Stephanie Anne
04-18-2008, 03:46 PM
Because a person taking this test knows the subject matter of the test and that this test was linked form a crossdressing forum it is fundamentally flawed to being with.

This would be far more accurate if it was a blinds survey where the test questions did not lead the test taker in to knowing it was about sexual orientation.

I find these test flawed to being with as I would, if needing to be cataloged, be considered homosexual or bisexual as I am more attracted to men than women. I however consider myself more woman than man even though i present an outward appearance and gender of a man.

Since I do feel and display such things I reject sexual typing and instead consider myself attracted to whoever I feel like at the time.

Guess that is why I scored dead center... or maybe it was because that was what I wnated to score taking it ;)

KatieZ

3 You are bisexual with heterosexual tendancies.

However since I have no bi expierience I think it would be more acurate to say heterosexual with bisexual tendancies.

1.1 here.

Annie D
04-20-2008, 07:37 AM
If I honestly answered the questions and I think that I did, then the results are indicative of the type of person that I am moving toward.

My results are that I am bisexual with hetero tendencies. My hetero side wants to explain such a ridiculous assessment but my bisexual side needs no explanation.

As I am reaching an age of androgony, the tenderness and the love with another person is most important irregardless of the sex of the other person. All my life I have been a "loner" and now as I enter the last quarter of my life, I see that personal well-being is based upon accepting who you are and searching for a SO or people who will support you no matter what your sexual orientation may be.

Yes, I would have a relationship with someone of the same sex if that person gave me the same type of support that I get and have gotten from my wife. Perhaps her fears of the past, her fears that my dressing would trigger homosexual encounters, are somewhat true. I don't know, but I do know that I am no longer afraid of facing that decision. I don't know if a relationship with another male would be sexual but if I received emotional support from another male; what is the problem with that?

Yes, I am confused but since my relationship with my wife has been and is currently excellent, I see no reason to explore the bisexual side of my personality.

1.5 And I agree with the results. Even though it is clearly a disaster scientifically.

jessielee
04-20-2008, 11:49 PM
Pity it didn't have any questions relating to crossdressing.

I would have had a completely different score then!
i'm with her. for, though it pegged me by its own questions frankly answered as that most square of pegs, a 1.0, there was no way to indicate how attracted i have been been towards feminine images, both external as well as emotional, mental and empathic presentations of some exceptional crossdresers here. believe we are all made up up of both feminine and masculine traits and gender preference is probably as mixed up as the rest. but i answered as i see myself and i feel it is not very accurate as pertaining to us.
straight but in a twisty way,
jessie

Debbie47
04-21-2008, 01:00 AM
I scored a 1.7. I do have fantasies of being with another person like me though because I feel that this person would be more like a woman on the inside. I have never wanted to be with a man dressed as a man.

stacyB
04-21-2008, 03:48 AM
What a load of rubbish - just like the cogiati

"1.5. You are totally heterosexual." ok...

I'd have to agree with Deborah... problem with this test (and the cogiati) is its too easy to manipulate in any direction you'd want the outcome to be... besides, I think the great majority of us knew very early on where are predilections lay...

...and does it really make a difference? Unless you are seeking that dream job at your favorite fundamentalist organization... :lol2:

My result was 3.7 and when I took the test the phrase was this: "You're completely bisexual". I laughed my @$$ out loud. At fisrt I was not sure whether I'd agree or not with the result, but I knew and know I'm bisexual. Overall I don't believe much in tests, yet this was helpful.

THnx for the test.

The questions listed here should be posed in a format having reptition. There should be more questions to answer as well. It is only through the repetition of answering the same or similar questions in the same way that you are able to generate a base line of data sufficient enough to allow for the [U]possibility of making a correlation. Then statistically speaking you have the choice of either "No" or "possibly"...

Not to confuse the issue, however...

Nikki K

I completely agree with you Jayme.
I scored a 3.8 but any bi/homosexual tendencies are indicative of my femme persona. When I tried the S.A.G.E test I did it on two separate occasions; one when I was feeling particularly femme and again when feeling homme. The results were kind of predictable yet accurate.
I have not yet been able to blend my male & female sides; right now they're pretty much two separate people and so I have to complete these tests as one OR the other or else the results are confused. Just like this one!

2...mostly heterosexual??..I don't even know what that could possibly be.....I do know I am totally heterosexual though (laughs).....I did answer the question about socialising as a 6 (mainly with men????), because I do socialise with guys through sport and after work a lot....since when does having drinks with the guys become a love fest!!!!!..anyway I think anyone that reads too much into that quiz is easily satisfied.

Sonia_cd
06-09-2008, 06:55 PM
The test assumes that everyone is sexual in some way and does not allow for my asexuality. That's my complaint with it. It needs to delink sexual orientation from sexual needs, desires and the drive. Far too many assumptions it makes of the person taking the test...

Ásfríðr
06-09-2008, 07:32 PM
sonia, kind of agree with that. it doesn't really incorperate transgenderism???!!! came out 3.2, bisexual with hetero tends. the hell does that mean? (s'fairly accurate actually, i guess) but what about if gender makes no difference to you? it needs to address what way you identify methinks, thats an important part of sexuality. and luuuuurve xx

Casey Morgan
06-09-2008, 07:54 PM
I'm really hesitant to vote in the poll since I see most of these things as just for fun. But I got a 1.3, solidly heterosexual. That's about right, although there's probably no test out there that would give me an accurate result seeing as how my definition of "man" and "woman" don't necessarily agree with the experts.

nina1947

it seems the indications are quite prolific!

The test was interesting, but there is too much room for error and false readings because of the way it is set up. Taken as a man I'm heterosexual, but taken as a woman I am homosexual. However the test is good for fun and laughter.

Says I'm bisexual with heterosexual tendencies.

Potentially accurate depending on my mood, I do not have the interest in sex with a man in any fashion, but, when dressed I do sometimes think of pleasing a man, more a fantasy. The only way I would act on these fantasies would be with the wife wearing something say plastic or rubber in nature. Seeing how that will more than likely never happen - it will just stay a fantasy!

The test seemed goofy to me. What does it matter what orientation your friends are? Lots of my friends are non-white, that doesn't make me x percent non-white.

So, big surprise that my result was "completely bi". I answered the questions, I already knew that.

It would be a better test if it suggested some movies I would like.
