Kinsey, anyone?

Klein Sexual Orientation Grid

I scored an average of 0.86

0

1

2

3

4

5

6

Heterosexual

Bisexual

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



Hm, sounds about right. Ish. I'd rate myself about a one. That was what I predicted when I began.

0.86 on the Klein scale

I scored the same as you. Basically, I have no interest in a male partner, sexually speaking. On the flip side, I have no or almost no 'squick factor' either. I suppose growing up on Capitol Hill contributed to that.
