    Usually on these tests I score a 4 or 5. Nowadays honestly I feel much more closer to a 6. Anyone get a score of like 5.75? :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Well... I scored a 3 and then a 4 on the first test. One question could easily be answered the opposite way and still be an accurate response, so I took the test twice. Hmmmm. Not sure how or why the way I answered that question truly changes the result.

    I'd score myself as a three, based on a self-assessment using Kinsey's own descriptions of the scale.

    I always knew my bisexuality isn't a perfect 50/50 and I score a 2 indeed :grin:

    I know this is an old thread but...

    For the first quiz, the first time I took it I got-

    I wasn't sure what to put for one of the questions, so I thought that I'd try seeing what difference that answer would make depending on what I chose for it. I kept all the answers the same, except for the question I wasn't sure on.

    The second time I took it I got-

    So either I somehow fail the sexuality quiz, or I'm exclusively gay. Hmm... I think I'm probably about a 5 or a 6 anyway, not quite sure really. I'm either bi but really picky about guys, or I'm just gay. Eh. :shrug:

    For the second quiz (the Buzzfeed one) I got:

    Oh...alright then.

    I'm a 6! 100% gay. This was oddly very satisfying. I think it stems from deep rooted self-hate and disbelief that I could be gay that began way back when I was first discovering my sexuality as a kid. I think it's just one more validation that I am not crazy. :icon_bigg

    Got non-sexual. Ok... I'd love to say if thats right or wrong but I don't know..

    And thats not a very good test. Especially the genders being only male and female.

    The test failed to match you to a Kinsey Type profile. Either you answered some questions wrong, or you are a very unusual person.

    Wow even the kinsey scale knows how to make me feel insecure xD

    Said I was a 2, which I have to think is wrong. I was a 2 when I was in the closet, 3 when I started to come out to people as bi, and 4 as of right now with my disillusionment with straight cis men :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Got a 3, though some of the questions are kind of stupid, like the submissive one.

    Yeah, and there were only a handful of questions too. I can't imagine the test is very in depth.

    I scored a 2 by the way. Although I feel it should be a bit higher.
