I want to go home now. So, I think I will!



Klein Sexual Orientation Grid


I scored an average of 3



01 2 3 4 5
6

HeterosexualBisexual Homosexual

Meaning

This result can also be related to the Kinsey Scale:


0 = exclusively heterosexual
1 = predominantly heterosexual, incidentally homosexual
2 = predominantly heterosexual, but more
than incidentally homosexual
3 = equally heterosexual and homosexual
4 = predominantly homosexual, but more than incidentally
heterosexual
5 = predominantly homosexual, incidentally heterosexual
6 = exclusively homosexual

Summary


The idea of this excercise is to understand exactly how dynamic a person's sexual orientation can be, as well as how fluid it can be over a person's lifespan. While a person's number of actual homo/heterosexual encounters may be easy to categorize, their actual orientation may be completely different. Simple labels like "homosexual", "heterosexual", and "bisexual" need not be the only three options available to us.

Take the quiz

I came out (har de har har) as a 2.33.

You know, I honestly wish I were attracted to women more than I am. I like hanging out with women more than with men, I enjoy their company more than men in general...just...yeah.

I got a 4.9 - mostly gay. The question about whether one mostly hangs out with straight or gay people was weird to me. I don't live in a gay enclave - I live in a world full of people of all different orientations and self-identifications. It made the quiz seem kind of dated.
