Where Do You Fall On The Kinsey Scale?
 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinsey_scale

0 Exclusively heterosexual
1 Predominantly heterosexual, only 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, only incidentally heterosexual
6 Exclusively homosexual
X No socio-sexual contacts or reactions

I'm str8, dude.

I don't really understand what it means to be "incidentally homo/heterosexual". Little help?

I'm 0 as ****, but don't tell my boyfriend.

I'm bi, which means I am neither heterosexual nor homosexual.

I have no idea when all these new sexual orientations were invented. Back in my day there were only 3 things:

You were straight
You were gay
You swing both ways

That was it. Now all of a sudden there's 15+ different sexual orientations because millennials feel the need to "express themselves."

In my case I'm as straight as an arrow.

Does it really count as straight if you've never touched a woman?

It's a case of all these social outcasts teaming up together an fascist alt-left people who give them a voice in the name of SJW and relevancy.

If you want to consider yourself one 20+ genders then knock yourself out and live your life fully but the moment you want me to refer to you as Zer or refer ro myself as cis then you're ****ing nuts. And I'm not kidding just take a look at how the alt-left bullies people and want to make it a crime if you don't use one of their gender pronouns they invented to make themselves feel special.

Personally, I identify as a Cybercuban.

Come on, ya bunch of toonophiles, be honest. :tlol:


Never had any same-gender interests. Straight as ninjato, but without the fakeness.

Of all polls to have names visible though... Will pass, feels a bit too segregating in a way.

Exclusively a one-man woman though I HAVE at least considered the notion of trying out "other flavors" during those odd moments of letting myself fantasize what that might be like.

I think its New York where you can legally be fined for getting that crazy wrong.

LMAO what's with the odd threads tonight? :lol:

I am a heterossexual cis-het privileged male(did I say that right, plastron?).

I don't think sexuality is so simple you can put it on a scale like this. I mean incidentally homossexual? What does that even mean?

Maybe... "Well there was that ONE time after too much alcohol..." lol

I don't think the Kinsey scale was intended to be used in this manor. It's a bit like conducting a Myers Briggs test, but skipping the test part and just asking people which personality type they were.

I don't know that the answer would be that useful to people anyway - you like who you like, so who needs an official classification?!

Not really.

Het is short for heterosexual, so it's redundant.
Either you're EXTRA STRAIGHT or you're using it like a double negative, and gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous.

Kinsey's Spectrum was revolutionary for the time, and works really well provided you view sexuality like a binary...which a lot of people don't.
Me included.
Again, I'm bi...I'm not equally homosexual and equally heterosexual.
The same way a futon isn't equally a couch and a bed. It's still a futon.

As for the question of "incidentally homosexual," that to me seems like a question of whether or not a person would find themselves with a same sex attraction should the proper situation/person present(s) it/themselves.

I've heard more than a few straight guys talk about the one dude they'd sleep with.
That'd be incidental homosexuality.

Though I wouldn't consider a guy who had a one-nighter with...crap...who do guys find attractive as guys? Jason Momoa?
Yeah, a straight guy who has a one-nighter with Jason Momoa...isn't suddenly gay. He's a straight guy who had a one-nighter with Jason Momoa.

I'm bi. I guess that's a 3 by the scale from 1948:lol:

I'm gonna steal that for something.

As well you should! Goodness knows I did.
It's from Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaimen.

Lol, excellent analogy!

Thanks, that makes more sense now.

Paul Rudd!

Had to Google to find my answer in the terms listed. I'm straight, even though I've never actually had any romantic stuff happen in my life.

I'm rather fond of it, myself. When tumblr's on its game, it generates some really great stuff.

No problem!
The jargon isn't all that user friendly, as jargon is often wont to be.
But I'll give credit where credit is due, this spectrum approach was revolutionary, and Kinsey's work was amazing.

...

Ooooh good choice.

He's also a guy that probably won't be able to sit in a chair for a year afterward.

As mentioned here..

The Kinsey scale is not exactly new.

I'm straight but sometimes I look at kinda out there porn so I'm like, a 1 or something? I dunno. From my incredibly minor awareness and understanding of Kinsey's methods and purposes I think it's more about "what stuff have you done in your lifetime" than "what you into" but I'm not really sure.

Is this by choice then, or you've just not found anyone you're attracted to yet?

By choice. Of course I've thought some girls I met we pretty or nice, and some seemed like they kinda liked me, but I've just been holding out until I meet the right person who shares common interests with me, and accepts me for who I am, issues and all.

I've been kind of freaking out recently that I'll never actually find said person, but there's not much I can do, and I definitely don't want to end up settling and unhappy for the rest of my life. Better to be lonely than to go through stuff like that, I guess.

Nothing wrong at all with waiting. Nothing at all.

I used to feel that way, but it's better to take chances. Make mistakes, go out with people you might not normally hang with. That's life, man!

I would do things to Matt Damon and Zac Efron and not even feel bad.

To this day I still find Smallville's Tom Welling attractive... and I'm comfortable enough with my sexuality to admit that. Wish I was like this 15 years ago when the show was still on.

Yeah, I'm with Nines on this one.
But then, I'm with Dan Savage on these things.

There's no The One, there's only people you're willing to round up to one.

And:

Every relationship will fail, until one doesn't. (and even that one will end eventually.)

Aren't you a ray of sunshine? :lol:

I do agree though. You'll have to settle. I think Bojack Horseman said it best.

Bit depressing I know but it's true that everything ends. Appreciate what you have while you have it and try to hold on as long as you can.

To answer the question, I'm heterosexual.

Like the song says, Perfect always takes so long, because it don't exist.

Thanks for the advice guys, I'll make sure to keep it all in mind in the future. :)

I'm a dude, and I'm strictly chickly.

Also didn't people say there's a "third gender" now? And I don't mean transgender, I mean a literal third gender. Like there's people who say, "I neither identify as a man, woman, or transgender....I am the third kind."

Third Gender is also old as hell and not a new thing at all https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Third_gender


Now we're asking the real questions.

Really? My "crush" in that series is Ukyo Kuonji.

Can someone explain this to me? I don't get it. :lol:

I wouldn't take advice from mrmaczaps. Unless you want to end up a lonely, miserable, psychotic prick.

Let me put it to you this way though: You're not going to be sitting in your rocking chair as an old man and think to yourself "damn, if only I'd had less fun and went on less dates".

Well you're dumb as a door knob. So, odds are, probably not.

Don't have a whole lot to contribute to this conversation, but just wanted to share this silly little meme that's been going around.
