    I don't know if anyone ever just estimated their score on the Kinsey scale. I've estimate my score within the 2.7-2.95 range as a bi curious mid 20s guy. I mean, I've estimated that from experiences and feelings I've from the past few years.

    See my "orientation" hahahah. I do remember I made up my own scale a while ago, and it made complete sense to me, but now I can't remember it for the life of me.

    I used to estimate it at about 4 or 5. I don't really like the Kinsey scale. Mainly because it implies that I'm open to dating men. I made up my own percentage scale that can be measured independently. That means you could hypothetically be 10% straight and 1% gay or 80% straight and 60% gay. Here's what the percentages mean.
    0-5% negligible attraction, may or may not exist
    6-10% rare attraction
    10-30% below average attraction
    30-50% low average attraction
    50-70% average attraction
    70-100% above average attraction
