| SU, methinks youshould redo the poll into the kinsley scale of 1-6. It'd be much easier, much more informative, and much better. If you don't know how, ask. |
I agree with Demonicat, the 1-6 Kinsey scale would work better here and possibly get a lot less comments about the posters gray areas for their actions/desires.
The Kinsey scale defines some of the gray areas:
"The scale is as follows:
Rating Description
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"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinsey_scale
Though Klein's scale is better:
"Klein refined the scale and somewhat simplified it. It remains with 7 intervals, but instead they are:
Rating Description
1 Other sex only
2 Other sex mostly
3 Other sex somewhat more
4 Both sexes equally
5 Same sex somewhat more
6 Same sex mostly
7 Same sex only
What limits the Kinsey scale is that it focuses on the person�s sexual experiences and fantasies up to that time. So to develop and hope for a better understanding of an individual�s sexuality throughout their lives, the Klein scale investigates sexual experience and fantasies in three times: the present (the most recent 12 months), the past (up to 12 months ago) and the ideal (which is as close as one can get to intention and prediction of future behaviour)."

I took a sexual psychology class in college it was a lot of fun and we covered a lot of information.
Personally on these scales I am a "0" for Kinsey and a "1" for Klein, but I am open minded and non-judgemental about the other levels. My theory is to each their own. |
Actually, I prefer reading about the "gray areas", though a Kinsey poll would be interesting.
