Hey there! Me again!

I wanna know just for the sake of my own curiosity where you landed on the Kinsey sexuality spectrum.

Incidentally, I'm a 4; predominantly homosexual with more than incidental interest in hetereosexuality. 5 is just too far for me. I think if you're a 5, you're gay but you might smooch someone of the opposite gender at a party or something. Nothing serious. Just playing. I also think 3 is too low. My fantasies and desires are more often homosexual.

Primarily 1--though I've had gay experiences--last time when I was 18. They only confirmed my hetereosexuality.

I identify as 4 but I am 2 if you count my actual relationships, not preferences. It's just easier to date a guy because they ask me out themselves.
Which makes me exactly 3, I guess.

I score as a 0. As I don't like most men, this comes as no surprise.

Between 5 and 6 yeah. Dunno where exactly in that range but I fall in that range.

I'm a 3, meaning that I am likely bisexual.

My sister got an X, meaning that she is likely asexual.

I was a 3 for the longest time, but lately I've gravitated more into the 4 range. I don't know if it's because I've grown discouraged with females and how "complicated" they appear to be, or if my sexuality has just changed naturally. I would likely still be open to having a relationship with a female, but I think I would be more interested in and possess stronger feelings for a male.

Probably a 5. I've had crushes on girls but I don't think I would kiss one at this stage of my life.

Interesting answers ... especially in light of the fact that the Kinsey Institute website specifically states that there is no "Kinsey Test" (Link to Site).

Quote:

How do I take the Kinsey test?

There is no ‘test. The original Kinsey research team assigned a number based on the sexual history of the person interviewed.

The scale ranges from 0, for exclusively heterosexual with no experience with or desire for sexual activity with their same sex, to 6, for exclusively homosexual with no experience with or desire for sexual activity with those of the opposite sex, and 1-5 for varying levels of desire or sexual activity with either sex.

However, if this is just another "Self-Diagnosis Party", then put me on record as "0 - Exclusively heterosexual with no experience with or desire for sexual activity with others of the same sex".

Hell, they lost me at question 3 - I find the idea of having sex with another ["man" if male, "woman" if female] repulsive
This automatically excludes everyone of a nonbinary gender, especially if you're also trans. Damn I wish I was pansexual.

I guess it's just one of those things that don't include or account for a more diverse gender identity spectrum. I'm certain it's not meant to be non-inclusive.

I would like to revise my number. A solid 3.
