**Anniz** will be relieved to know that I scored… > [@](#): > > Your score is 37 > > **LEVEL 2 – VERY STRAIGHT ACTING** > > Hardly anyone would be able to pick you as a homo boy. All your actions are carefully crafted in a way that they never appear to be considered too fem. Only a fellow level 2 – buddy might suspect you with the proper gaydar and it’s just the way you like it. Of course, this quiz is for gay men, not straight ones. ---

Well, I got a Level 1–Extremely Straight-Acting. > [@](#): > > No one would expect you as being gay because your actions never show even a hint of femininity. You carry yourself in a macho, masculine manner at all times. You’re hung up on ‘guy things’ and if you dance at a club your feet and hands barely move.

And I scored a 78: > [@](#): > > LEVEL 4 – SOMEWHAT STRAIGHT ACTING > > A few people might suspect that you might not be a heterosexual. No one knows for sure, but there are rumors about what you’re doing on the weekends. Most of your traits are straight acting but a few traits you have are causing people to wonder, but nothing is so apparent that anyone is sure enough to bring it up. Given that I **am** straight, I find this amusing. ---

Level 2 here, but the candles I own are emergency candles and I only watched “Bridges of Madison County” because my girlfriend wanted to. Honest! ---

Your score is 53 ``` LEVEL 3 -- MOSTLY STRAIGHT ACTING You lead a normal everyday life and it's 'no questions asked' as people just assume you are straight. Every once and awhile a very aware person might notice something that causes them to think 'fem' but it's a fleeting thought because you turn around and surprise them with more masculine traits before they even have time to fully analyze the last one. ``` You guys dont even know who I am yet, since I am just starting to post here…but I am a straight guy who is not making a big isuue of that! YOu know …I am not gay, but what is the point of acting “manly” just to prove you are straight? So the score is in compliance with the personaLÝTY… Good test… 🙂 ---

> [@](#): > > Your score is 87 > > LEVEL 5 – SOMEWHAT FEMININE > > Your Mom already knows. Smart girls in the office already knowthat you like to sleep with men. Your straight acting traits are few and far between as your feminine traits start to surface. You tend to be a real sensitive guy that gets along great with the female posse at work. Damn – I’m even more gay than **Spiritus Mundi**. Looks like **Turpentine** is the only one more feminine that I am. Hmmm… ---

Actually, I had misread and checked only one box in each category in my previous post. After checking all applicable boxes: > [@](#): > > Your score is 76 > > \*\*LEVEL 4 – SOMEWHAT STRAIGHT ACTING > > A few people might suspect that you might not be a heterosexual. No one knows for sure, but there are rumors about what you’re doing on the weekends.

My score: 131. This makes me (big surprise) Very Feminine. > [@](#): > > It’s kinda assumed ‘Oh, yeah he’s gay’. Your consistent behavior leads anyone you come in contact with to think that you’re more than likely a fun loving homo boy. You’re the life of the party and your hands are moving and talking as much as your mouth. You clothes are so perfect that sometimes they look fake. Robin ---
