I scored 320....whatever that means

Score: +130 to +389, COGIATI classification FOUR, PROBABLE TRANSSEXUAL

What this means is that the Combined Gender Identity And Transsexuality Inventory has classified your internal gender identity to be essentially feminine, but with some masculine or androgynous traits. It is very possible that you are a candidate for a diagnosis of transsexualism. You show a strong degree of gender dysphoria. At the very least, further investigation should be undertaken. Your COGIATI score places you among the majority of those diagnosed as transsexuals, the 'late onset' transsexual.

SUGGESTIONS FOR ACTION:

Your situation is potentially serious and indicative of a probable inborn gender conflict. It is definitely recommended that you pursue further action.

The suggestions for your circumstance are several.

1. It is recommended that you seek help from a sympathetic counselor or professional about your gender issues. It is very possible that over time they will become increasingly difficult to cope with. Early determination of what you really need and want is vital. You need to determine if you truly are transsexual. Keep in mind, though, that many alternatives exist other than complete sexual transformation. Partial transformation and many other way of existing are available. While you are very possibly a transsexual, COGIATI has determined that this is not absolutely certain. While time is an issue, being certain is more important. Proceed with investigation of your possible transsexuality or ->-bleeped-<-, but with caution.

2. Some actions may help you to define your needs more clearly. Experimenting with living full time as a woman, taking hormones for a short time under supervision, or taking testosterone suppressers to observe how you feel are all viable options. Keep in mind that while it is very likely that you might be a transsexual, it is not certain. Do not take severe or permanent actions without long thought and the help of counselors and professionals.

3. Your gender issues are real, and should not be ignored. Neither should you rush into acting on them, however powerful they may feel. You do not fit the full criterion for the rarest classification, classic transsexuality, and so should be cautious, and open to possibilities. You may yet end up undergoing transition, and the path of the transsexual may well be your salvation. Be very careful, but do not ignore your issues.

4. If you have not already, consider joining any of the thousands of groups devoted to gender expression of various kinds. There is literally a world of friends to discover who share your interests. There are also publications, vacations, and activities that would expand your gender expression.

[Northern Jane]

I have taken it many times over the years. Mainly I can score where ever I want to.

[iminadaze]

I took that test about a year ago and got a 350 it is an entertaining test if anything but there is no reason to take it more than once cuz if you answered honestly each time your score should be
the same. I never took the test again as it would kinda spoil the entertainment value knowing how easy it is to manipulate a higher score....but it was fun to read thier recommendation on what I should do about my transsexualism

Nicole 

[Eva Marie]

I took it and scored as basically an androgyne.

I mentioned it here on the board and took a lot of crap about it

It's an internet piece of junk.  It says nothing really.  You get the results you want.  Because everyone lies, even to them selves taking test like this.  There is NO predictive value in the results.

well, I wouldnt say I lied...I thought about my answers and I knew where some, or most of the answers would lead...BUT, it was interesting to ponder my view on most of the questions and further realize I DO think like a woman.

Are you overanalyzing the test...say, as a Man would do?
I still love you Tekla!

[cindybc]

I believe that after living as a woman for 9 years I am quite certain as to the answeres I was ticking off, in some places I wished they had diferent options to fit my present status.

No sabía que también hablabas español, Hypatia


The test is for pre-transitioners, btw

[cindybc]

Yes it is geared for pretransitioners but a pretty darn accurate test if the person answers the questions honestly they can have a pretty good idea what stage of development they are at. Good questions.

I know it got mentioned on the other thread about this, but take this test with a large shaker of salt.  It is VERY stereotypical.  For example if you have "dealt" with TS issues by withdrawing from others then you won't register as TS according to this because you won't be able to instantly tell what someone is thinking from their expression and won't be happy to sit on someone else's lap while they give you hugs and cry on your shoulder about past issues.  It also assumes that only men are interested in math and science and that all women will be poets.
