    Hey guys, so I came across a really interesting test that supposedly figures out if you're gay or not, so I wanted to see what you thought, what you scored, and how you actually identify :slight_smile:. Check it out:

    Gay Test

    Here's how to interpret the result:

    The average score for straight men is 14.6 and the average score for gay men is 20.7. So far, everyone who taken this test and scored 9 or less has been straight, and everyone who has scored 27 or higher has been gay.

    I got 26 - figures, just below the threshold! :lol:

    I compel thee to complete the poll! :lol: I'm a scientist-in-training, I love collecting data :grin:.

    And to answer your question, I think whoever wrote the test is not someone who's first language is English :grin:.

    Really ridiculous test and I'm not even talking about the speelong.
    Got a 17 though so it's surpisingly accurate.

    I got the same score as you. Either we have really strange tastes in men, or we have very straight tastes in women; or we have a combination of the two.

    I think the test fails to make a distinction between attraction and aesthetic appreciation.

    I got a 15. Surprisingly accurate given that the test is about judging people's attractiveness. Although they did through in some butt ugly people that you had no choice but to vote against xD Like the neckbeard Michael Moore looking dude. Or the really obese chick with her tongue sticking out. *shivers*

    I think it's both as I agreed with the straight guys on the example girls and disagreed with the majority of gay guys on the example men .

    I got a 22 on the test but it could be different if I took the test again next week.

    Um, yeah--but I'm female so I have no idea what this means. Fun to look at the pictures, though.

    I received a 19. As someone who is beginning to associate as gay with bi-romantic interests, I suppose that's fairly right to be just below the average for gay men. Again, I don't believe this test to be the most accurate one out there yet, but I do like how it doesn't ask you any questions about your sexual preferences/experiences that impact the scoring.

    I don't need a test to tell me I'm gay because I think guys are more sexually attractive than women. That's a pretty obvious indicator. If you really aren't sure about your sexuality, it'll be hard to say which you prefer, as that is in fact what you are trying to figure out in the first place. I also don't buy into the "what kind of music do you listen to" and "how many pairs of shoes do you own" bull crap, so I'm glad this test doesn't do that.

    It's a really interesting test, but like all tests, a grain of salt is required when analyzing the results.

    Oops, voted for the wrong option (18-25 and I'm not on the list, I should've selected 18-25 and I'm gay).

    Scored 21. It's a fun test, although it doesn't really serve as a good tool to determine if one is gay or not in my opinion.

    Yeah, I don't think its perfect, but it does have more to go on than those tests which seem to try and resolve uncertainty surrounding one's sexual orientation by asking you what your sexual orientation is. You know, they usually look something like this:
