A lot of these questions were really funny, in an illuminating way.

I got Soft Androgyne, which sounds about right.

Same. . .Those extra bits are surprisingly accurate to me, despite being a stock result and all. For example, I really don't like the personal inefficiency of cooking for only myself. Why spend 20 minutes on something I'm going to eat in 5? And "enjoying cartoons as much as heavy psych drama". . .That's certainly my number there.

Speaking of "enjoying a fairly strong butch for a partner," I wish someone was around to mow my yard right now. I detest doing it. -_-

LOL!!     Definately cute.  I scored a practical femme:

(You are more mentally femme than physically. You love to gussy up for the occasional special event but it wears you out to maintain that image round the clock. Your nails are short but neat, your hair short and easy to care for, and you wear minimal makeup. You usually dress in more feminine styles of pants or longer, flowy skirts, often without hose. But you have no doubt in your heart that you are femme.

You take the direct approach to problems, often flying in head first without looking - this at times gets you in a flustering situation, but you are adept at digging yourself out of it. You like a moderately assertive career in lower management or self-employment. You really don't like having a boss, but don't want the onus of being the top boss.

You're a decent but not fancy cook, keep a neat but not elaborate house, and prefer efficiency to style, comfort to being "trendy."

In relationships you gravitate toward nearly every type, though Extreme Femmes strike you as a bit silly, Androgynes as indecisive and Extreme Butches as too posing. And what you don't date, you welcome as friends, though you are very selective in your friendships and tend to have a small, well chosen circle of associates. )

Androgyne. Bang. ;D

I thought I'd be somewhere in the Femme categories.

This part made me laugh:

QuoteIf you are female and have some endowments, you wear a bra in public but not at home.

So true for me...  ;D

QuoteANDROGYNE

Your score placed you in the category of Androgyne. This is the true middle of the road, neither butch nor femme. You may also wish to review Soft Androgyne and Hard Androgyne, the two categories surrounding you. In a ranking across the femme/butch gamut, if 1 is femme and 100 is butch, you fall between 48 and 52 on the scale. For a review of where you fall in the overall population in numbers, refer to this chart. Your group encompasses folks of all types, genders, and orientations, though is not as large a part of the population as the hard and soft androgynes surrounding you.

You are the best of both worlds, and have absolutely no feeling of being either femme or butch. You see yourself as "you" and that's all that matters. You dislike labels, surprised yourself by even taking this test, and are now laughing as you identify with this definition!

You switch roles fluidly without thinking from nurturing/subordinate to providing/leading as the situation demands. You are often a jack or jill of all trades and master of a few, but not all.

In clothing you go for the practical, not always bothering with the concept of neatness if that interferes with comfort or the time it takes to get dressed. Wrinkles don't drive you crazy, though you do prefer to keep reasonably up to date in your style, without going to any extreme in it.

You are shy in many ways, being intimidated by overt aggression as well as complete silence in a conversation. You tend to babble to fill silent space and clam up when confronted.

Odds are good astrologically that you are a Libra, Pisces, Gemini, or Aquarius.

You're willing to try anything once as long as it does not pose a risk to you. You're also good at doing just about any job, as long as you find a way to get trained for it. Physically, you're average in fitness, not being overly concerned about being either "curvy" or "chisled". If you are female and have some endowments, you wear a bra in public but not at home.

For partners you are comfortable with all types, for you are a peacemaker and changeling at heart, changing yourself to fit the situation and avoid hostility. You aren't a doormat, though, and do express your opionions.

Oki :) I'm not a Libra or pisces or anything, though, but it fits.

 :laugh: I got a Strong Femme. Eat your heart out boys!

QuoteYou identify as female rather than femme, or as a male with an open mind to female issues. Your raising and socialization, however, has implanted enough of traditional femme roles and obligations, though, that you don't quite make it to the bridge category of Androgyne which lies between femme and butch.

You are practical in child raising but have no qualms about calling a baby sitter when you've had enough for the day. You are a good co-provider in a balanced partnership but resent carrying the full financial weight. You expect your partner to help you with your home and while you prefer order to chaos, won't do their share for them.

You are independent and proudly female, and don't really mind living alone, though you'd prefer not to. You sleep with a small light on, and usually in the nude. You insist on good communication in your relationships.

You are most comfortable with Androgynes and Gentle or Feminist Butches as partners, rarely dating other femmes, though admittedly physically you find them attractive. The butch "mystique" or the balance in an Androgyne attracts you more. You get along well with most types, though Extreme Femmes you find a bit overdone and aren't entirely comfortable with Extreme Butches.

All this is true except for the thing bolded. The questions that SPECIFICALLY asked about these things I answered as follows: Completely dark, and with cotton or similar. How did that come up? lol  :eusa_doh:

This, I'm sure is because I have lived the past 47 years outwardly as a man and internally questioning the female banging around wanting to come out and play.

You switch roles fluidly without thinking from nurturing/subordinate to providing/leading as the situation demands. You are often a jack or jill of all trades and master of a few, but not all.

I think this pretty much right on.

In clothing you go for the practical, not always bothering with the concept of neatness if that interferes with comfort or the time it takes to get dressed. Wrinkles don't drive you crazy, though you do prefer to keep reasonably up to date in your style, without going to any extreme in it.


This, I'm sure goes back to the whole living as a guy. I don't really care much for male fashions, so I don't really sweat it if they wrinkle or anything.

You are shy in many ways, being intimidated by overt aggression as well as complete silence in a conversation. You tend to babble to fill silent space and clam up when confronted.

SHY?! ME?! Hell yeah. I am probably one of the only people who had to repeat kindergarten because I wouldn't say a single word in class all year. I am a very introverted person, but don't really have a problem talking to groups and did very well working as retail and restaurant managers.

Odds are good astrologically that you are a Libra, Pisces, Gemini, or Aquarius.

Dead on LIBRA.

You're willing to try anything once as long as it does not pose a risk to you. You're also good at doing just about any job, as long as you find a way to get trained for it.

Hmm... I have been quite good at all of the jobs I've done in my life. Physically, yeah, I've always been in good shape, never the bodybuilder, macho man look - pretty androgyne I guess. I like to wear a bra at home but not in public (yet).  :D Don't have the endowment, yet.  :(

For partners you are comfortable with all types, for you are a peacemaker and changeling at heart, changing yourself to fit the situation and avoid hostility. You aren't a doormat, though, and do express your opionions.

This was the part of the quiz that most bothered me, had the hardest time with. I have always been single, never really fit right enough to be in a relationship. I dated a girl once for about 3 weeks before she broke off. Trying to answer the questions of how I would react/respond/treat my lover, I could only guess at what I would do. Maybe I'll revisit this quiz again in a year or so after I get some things sorted out and really start exploring who/what I am (I'm only just starting to discover that I'm not the freak I've thought I was all my life - and not alone). Maybe I'll score stronger femme.

Fun quiz nonetheless.

80% spot on, but they fail at guessing I'm a Taurus :P

Finally was able to get the results since the day Tink posted this test.

QuoteSOFT ANDROGYNE

Your score placed you in the category of Soft Androgyne. This is the "steel magnolia" type. You may also wish to review Strong Femme and Androgyne, the two categories surrounding you. In a ranking across the femme/butch gamut, if 1 is femme and 100 is butch, you fall between 41 and 47 on the scale. For a review of where you fall in the overall population in numbers, refer to this chart. Your group is a large part of the 35-45 age group for the most part and has a wide mix of genders and orientations.

For most of your life and social interaction, you don't really see yourself as either butch or femme, but if pressed into a corner, you react more femme than butch. You prefer to seek aid rather than solve your problems on your own, and prefer to give aid rather than to encourage someone to stand on their own feet. You're fairly well balanced over all, with the occasional weakness you haven't quite yet conquered.

Education is important to you, as you see knowledge as a key to independence and freedom, and you tend to have a higher educational level than your peers, either formally or by self-teaching. You read a lot, and a varied assortment of genres, enjoying cartoons as much as heavy psych drama. Biography, however, bores you. You like historical anecdotes but are not very good at memorizing dates, having a more general sense of time.

Your home is a roof for you and not a showplace. Order is optional. You cook if you have to and are efficient at it but really don't like to bother. You prefer to be fed. You like small dogs or big cats and the occasional hamster.

You enjoy a fairly strong butch for a partner, along the lines of a Feminist or Classic Butch, and take on other Androgynes as friends. Family is not terribly important to you, and odds are good you came from a home where that was not the primary issue. You may have a good, but distant relation with your family, or may not be in touch at all, but it's pretty certain you don't live with them unless you have to, or in the same city.
