    I voted 5, but I don't really think sexuality can be measured completely. I think that extremes in either direction are, for the most part, impossible. That doesn't rule out someone being exclusive to one sexuality over the other, I just don't think that total homo or hetero sexuality exists very abundantly.

    the problem with this scale is if you haven't been involved with anybody or had sexual relations, you pretty much can't rate yourself. they should have a kinsey scale for virgins that identify who they are based off of thoughts, feelings, and masturbation habits. :tears:

    but with that said going off of my past and present life, i'm beyond a 5 and possibly at or close to a 6. i don't know. i might see an attractive woman, stare at her, and what not but she doesn't make my mind and feelings work like how an attractive guy would. i've never had a crush on a woman before. most of my "attractions" to women have been me forcing myself to like them as a way of convincing myself that i was straight. all i know is that i wasn't and still am not attracted to women to the point where i am sexually or romantically interested in being with one but i am with a man.

    Old thread is OLD. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Anywho, I've never had any sexual experiences, but I'm DEFINITELY sure I'm a Kinsey 6. Even as friends, I can't really get emotionally attached to women (maybe it's because the majority of my family is comprised of women...), and women don't turn me on at ALL.

    I ranked at 5 pretty close to a 6, but based on my past I figure I'm a 5 :slight_smile:

    I never liked the emphasis on previous sexual experiences. It seems like a gay person who forces his or her self to have sex with the opposite sex only shouldnt get a 1 or a 2...

    Maybe I'm just whining cause I'd get about a 2 even though I'm slightly more attracted to guys these days :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Again, with the necrobumping.

    Also: I put myself around a 3, although I could be anywhere between a 2 and a 4.

    I'd say I'm a 4.998762445989
    Lol I'm way more of a homo than anything that's for sure, but I guys can be hot sometimes :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Not like I want anything to do with them though relationship wise.

    I range between a 2 and a 4. I'm most often on a 2 though, with weeks or brief periods of being a 4. Thus, I see myself as a 3 due to that range. Also why I pursue girls the most. With that said, however, I can also see how guys can only like guys thus I fight for LGBT rights and have become more vocal about fighting for equality.

    I feel like this scale is an over-simplified way of looking at it..

    I agree. The scale calls me a 3, which is bisexual, but its not exactly like that. Pansexuals love differently sometimes. I know I do.

    I say exclusively homosexual.

    EDIT: OH WAIT. I just realized it's based off my past experiences :lol:. I guess I'm asexual then.
