I got a 30%. I think it was the leather pants! My quote says “Loosen up my straight mate! These days women like a man with some softer edges to grab on to.” ---

I got 23% also a member of th “Loosen up, my straight mate, these days women like a man with some softer edges to grab onto.” Spark test I came up at around 30%. On an unrelated note, I’m the most unpure person I know according to ol sparky. ---

20% (way too straight for today, mate) I got nervous when that stupid meter shot up to 100% – that had me a little concerned for a minute that the rules changed again… hehehe… spark’s was 21% or so… I had to laugh at the one question on the spark (can you tell if a guy is gay when you first meet them?) – because there are some ppl that make it easy… the skin tight hot pink muscle shirt with the word “DISCIPLINE” written on the front in Old English font sort of gives it away ---

he he he – the first test i got a 63%-- “careful! you might be straight-laced but anymore butch and you’ll have to fight off the girls” and on the spark test 37% gay “gayer than the average for someone my gender and supposed orientation – the typical straight female is only 32% gay” ---

66%–Careful! You’re not a dyke cliché yet, but are well on your way. ---

36% gay. As my girlfriends say, I’m “just gay enough!” Damn, they didn’t ask about my color scheme. Mauve & Teal, cuz it’s all about New Mexico. That would’ve put me over 40 for sure. ---

I got 43% on this test and am a “Happy and well adjusted hetero male”. Was it just my imagination or were some of the questions on that test truly stupid? (e.g. the footballer one. Hello… not everyone likes football). FTR, I’m Hetero with bi leanings. Spark says I’m 35% gay, which is apparently less than average for straight guys. Ah well. I guess I’m just odd. ---

According to Sparc, I’m 53% gay. (Typical gay male is 51%) ---

50% - a well-adjusted lesbian babe. I’ve taken this before, and got 60%. Somehow I’ve got less gay since then. Or perhaps it’s more that I’m not butch, which is what these tests always seem to be about anyway. ---

23% gay here. _Loosen up, my straight mate, these days women like a man with some softer edges to grab onto._ Softer edges? What? I agree with **photopat** that a lot of those questions need a “neither” or “n/a” option. ---

Only 43%, Dr. Matrix? You’d better pick up the pace, or I’ll pass you when I go to wax my bikini zone! 😉 ---

26%, although I agree with the “none of the above” request. Also, I find my best friend VERY sexy, 'cos it’s my wife. And I shave (trim) the pubes. ---

23% gay, though I couldn’t be much straighter. I’d sort of like to know which questions I got “wrong.” Could I really have lost THAT many points for hiring somebody else to do household projects? Or for wanting to meet a football player, rather than being one? ---

Hetero female… I’m only 36% gay on the first test and 31% gay on the second test. I must say I’m very disappointed. ---
