Yesterday I made pasta. I wanted to put something in it apart from, you know, pasta, but a search through my kitchen cupboards revealed only chicken carbonara in the way of those leetle sauce packets. We also had some thyme, but it was covered in moth-webs. Ugh. If my mum's gonna open spice packets she could at least put the remains in jars! Thankfully the moths didn't get the actual thyme, but they were crowded round the edge and all gunky and ew. So I just dropped in some vegetable stock. Yeah, the leetle cubes. Mmm, pasta.

Klein Sexual Orientation Grid

I scored an average of 1.95

0

1

2

3

4

5

6

Heterosexual

Bisexual

Homosexual

Meaning

This result can also be related to the Kinsey Scale:

0 = exclusively heterosexual
1 = predominantly heterosexual, 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, incidentally heterosexual
6 = exclusively homosexual

Summary

The idea of this excercise is to understand exactly how dynamic a person's sexual orientation can be, as well as how fluid it can be over a person's lifespan. While a person's number of actual homo/heterosexual encounters may be easy to categorize, their actual orientation may be completely different. Simple labels like "homosexual", "heterosexual", and "bisexual" need not be the only three options available to us.

Take the quiz

That's interesting. I'd say the questions could have been clearer and better defined, though.
