iFindMeHere: You are more than welcome to create a new poll for the Klein Grid if you wish since I also think that it would give us all a more thorough account of sexual orientation :)

Done :D

Are you a librarian?
Yes. Why do you ask?

Because the way you speak makes me think of Library Science.

It's a compliment. :)

LOL, thanks for the compliments, guys. :) You must be sapiosexual! (that's my real orientation if there ever was one)
Here's what I find about compromise--
don't do it if it hurts inside,
'cause either way you're screwed,
eventually you'll find
you may as well feel good;
you may as well have some pride

The number I'd assign myself is about 5.5. I indicated 5 on the poll rather than 6, mainly because I'm skeptical about 100% absolute positions. My number used to be down around 4, but I've brought it up lately.

I have never felt right in my own skin since I was a little kid. I just wasted to many years in relationships that ended up being detrimental to my health, and for many years I lived by myself, not really wanting anyone else for a partner until I met my mate Wing Walker 6years ago. From then on I knew that I would not be looking for anyone else. This late in my life and the relationship I have with Wing Walker was and still is the better of any other I have ever had before in my life. Should anything happen to Wing Walker I don't believe I would want to continue to live by myself.

So I guess that qualifies me as homosexual since we are both female. #6 on the list.

What are you calling crappy? The HBSOC Klein's scale?  ;)  People will always buy their way around it, you know? Circumvent the system?   ;) >:D

I picked 5 though really I'm not that strongly atracted to anyone in the physical means.  Might be asexual leaning towards other guys.
Every day we pass people, do we see them or the mask they wear?
If you live under a mask long enough, does it eventually break or wear down?  Does it become part you?  Maybe alone, they are truly themselves?  Or maybe they have forgotten or buried themselves so long, they forget they are not a mask?

5, too.

Isn't it sad, they have an official term for people who derive pleasure from urine and urination (urophilia/urophile), but not for "Geekphiles"... *Obviously* pee is more attractive than intelligence. ::)

Like the lady said, "Sapiosexual" is attracted to intelligence. Geekphile means I have a further specification - for me, a person's not gonna be attractive unless they know about some combination of


  • computers
  • comic books
  • video or other games
  • science
  • math
  • history

might be more i cant think of, it's early.

Trying to determine my own hetero-homo rating is proving to be quite difficult. I'm not exclusively hetero or homo, and I've been accross the scale and back again. Even though I am female, I really dislike my attraction to males. Because I am female, I really dislike my attraction to females too. In recent years I have spent more time with men because it was far more socially accepted than being with women. Such relations have left much to be desired and feel wrong or backwards somehow. Relations with women feel more right, but lacking. Essentially I feel that a male/female relationship is what I want, but somehow I'm not happy with my own circumstances.

I hope this makes sense, because it doesn't to me.
