Default S.A.G.E. (Sex and Gender Explorer) Test

If anyone's interested in taking it, just click here.
It is fairly long, but I'm interested to see everyone's results.

Sidenote: The questions where you click on the image are broken, so I just BS'd the answers to those, otherwise it wipes out all your answers and you have to start over.

---------- Post added 29th Jan 2012 at 10:27 PM ----------

My results:
Your Raw Score is: 410, which indicates that overall you are Androgynous
Your appearance is Androgynous
Your brain processes are mostly that of a Androgynous person.
You appear to socialize in a androgynous manner.
You believe you have major conflicts about your gender identity.
You indicated your were born Female.
ANALYSIS:
Female to Male possible Transsexual
NOTES:
Your Answers indicate your psychological state has likely prevailed since you were quite young.

This was extremely accurate for me, and it helped tremendously to reaffirm the thoughts and feelings I've been having more and more frequently lately.

its not a particularly good one.


S.A.G.E. Test Results

Your Raw Score is: -810, which indicates that overall you are Masculine

Your appearance is Quite Masculine

Your brain processes are mostly that of a Androgynous person.

You appear to socialize in a feminine manner.

You believe you have normal doubts about your gender identity.

You indicated your were born Male.

ANALYSIS:
Male to Female Crossdresser
NOTES:
•Your Answers indicate your psychological state has likely prevailed since you were quite young.
•Statistically, Homosexual crossdressers have no desire to actually BE the '+thatSex+', but usually engage in such activity as a parody or celebration of the opposite sex, rather than as a means of sexual gratification, enhancement, or stress relief. Many are entertainers in DRAG revues.


for every answer, I never gave an answer that said I wanted to dress or act feminane. I do have some feminane mannerisems, but I identify as male.

it is flawed because it makes a social judgement that certain skills or hobbies are gender bound.

it is weird that it says I have a desire to dress like the opposate sex, even though I answered truthfully that I have never had a desire, and that if people do, I have no problem with it.

I definitely agree with you there.
In my response to my results saying that it was accurate for me, I was only stating it because it was. I didn't mean to imply that it was going to be accurate for everyone or that there weren't flaws in the test itself, so my apologies if it came out that way. Granted, it is a test that is roughly 10 years old and I don't believe it's been updated since and things with gender roles and such have progressed (in my opinion) a fair amount since then, even though it wasn't too terrible long ago. Maybe the test just needs a bit of updating, or a complete overhaul altogether.

I looked up other responces on it, and it seems crossdresser happy. it designates people who say they have no desire to be or dressed up as the opposate sex as crossdressers. Either it is something wrong in the coding, or the methodology is off.

other people complaigned that it listed them as striaght, even though they answered the sexual orientation identity questions as gay or bisexual, or vice versa.

it almost seems like this test doesnt believe anyone is not a crossdresser/transexual.

now that I think about it, I dont think I saw too many people who did not get labeled one or the other when I was searching for comments on results.

Not too different from what I expected, though I'm quite sure that I haven't ever wanted to be the opposite sex.

I also thought that some of the questions made use of stereotypes. Great idea, but could have been better executed.

S.A.G.E. Test Results
Your Raw Score is: -640, which indicates that overall you are Masculine

Your appearance is Masculine

Your brain processes are mostly that of a Male person.

You appear to socialize in a masculine manner.

You believe you have serious conflicts about your gender identity.

You indicated you are physically Intersexed to some degree.

ANALYSIS:

Since you indicated you were born with an Intersex condition, it is likely that this has caused you some degree of gender conflict because society in general is not accepting or understanding of gender ambiguity. Since it is difficult to live in a purely androgynous gender role, please check the most appropriate analysis below.

NOTES:

Your answers indicate you have altered your physical appearance to look like the opposite sex.
Your Answers indicate your psychological state has likely prevailed since you were quite young.
ANALYSIS AS Male:
Male to Female Crossdresser

NOTES:

Your answers indicate you have altered your physical appearance to look like the opposite sex.
Your Answers indicate your psychological state has likely prevailed since you were quite young.
You are in a statistical minority as a bisexual crossdresser. Most crossdressers are heterosexual. Your motivation for crossdressing may be driven by the binary nature of your sexuality, as a way to more fully explore the Female gender role.
ANALYSIS AS Female:
Female to Male Transsexual, either post-operative or in transition

NOTES:

Your answers indicate you have altered your physical appearance to look like the opposite sex.
Your Answers indicate your psychological state has likely prevailed since you were quite young.

Fair enough; I expected something like that.

True, though I'm hoping to begin to change it.

I thought this one would be androgynous.

Possible.

Not "major", per se.

Yep.

Utter bullshit. Just because I'm good at maths, reading maps and logic puzzles doesn't mean I'm androgynous. I have never cross-dressed, nor felt the need to, I rarely wear pants (preferring dresses and skirts), my room is bright pink, and I fit many other gendered stereotypes. I have never felt conflicted about my gender identity whatsoever (and yes, I have thought about it intensely due to being a Gender Studies major, so it's not a case of it not coming up before).

ANALYSIS:
Male to Female Transsexual in doubt about your ability to successfully transition

-------------------------------------
Huh, I keep getting "feminine" scores for tests like these (warning: cathartic rant incoming)..I mean, I do feel somewhat feminine internally, but I certainly don't intentionally present that way externally (despite the fact that people somehow mistake me for a girl, sometimes..).

Really, the self-definition I've come up with in my mind is: "Pretty femme for an asexualized nerd." So, yeah - don't think many people would buy a MTF label, though I definitely have internal conflicts with gender...

Oh, and about the cross dressing stuff: Guys, this test is essentially is to just give some simple, contemplative results for people considering if they have Gender Identity Disorder/are transgendered. The "analysis" is geared toward those people - so, a "crossdresser" answer would indicate that you likely aren't trans, and your "gender conflicts" are more so indicative of andro/gyne-philia. Since the majority of you don't really have major gender conflicts the test doesn't specifically apply to you - there's no "normal male/female" result .
