I scored an 84, level 5: somewhat feminine. I’ve been called worse. Being married will give you floral linens & make you buy nair. The incense is mine though. I’ve never understood the whole gay-bashing thing anyway. ---

Or maybe you mistyped straight_dope_.com one day… First, yeah, I realized this was a “gay site” but figured it was worth sharing with the rest of y’all anyway. Seems to have gotten a bit of response, I’d say. Second, a married friend of mine sent the link to me, and I, trusting him because in the past he’s come through with some good stuff, checked it. Being amused, I went ahead with this thread (see point 1, above). Thirdly, Hi Opal! Last, I am secure in my heterosexual manhood enough that I was chuckling the whole time wondering if anyone would do some “sequential threads” with my last few posts. FWIW, I scored a level 4, not sure of the points. So I took a bath the other day (I was sore) and had to watch Titanic with my ex- about 5 times… \ ---

So, Sofa King are you gonna ‘fess up on why you bought that Nair? Personally, I’m with Five, I’ve have gotten a much more manly score if I hadn’t bought that bottle of Nair in Jr.High along with the Great Eyebrow Plucking Experiment. There should have been time restrictions on that quiz. I’m not _that_ much of a girl. ---

**xtal** , considering I scored a 7 to your 5, I think it’s clear who should lead if we ever do go out dancing. ---

This gay boy got a 94, Level 5. And I don’t “act” straight, either. Nor do I “act” gay. Its not an act, folks; I yam what I yam. ---

On the dog quiz, my dog’s score is 14. > [@](#): > > LEVEL 2-- THE VERY STRAIGHT ACTING DOG > > Still rough around the edges, this is the perfect straight acting guys mate. Whether at the lumber shop, hunting, fishing or begging for table scraps, your dog will stand his ground and stand by his man. Car manufacturers are meeting today to discuss naming a new line of heavy trucks after your dog. Dogs that fit into this category are Dobermans, German Shepherd’s and Huskies. ---

Somewhat straight acting (but just by one point). ---

\*\*LEVEL 1 – EXTREMELY STRAIGHT ACTING You’re hung up on ‘guy things’ and if you dance at a club your feet and hands barely move. Your idea of a good time is probably watching WCW wrestling. \*\* Screw that test. I’m a good dancer. I don’t like wrestling. So I have a thing for power tools. ---

Okay, my score is 86 LEVEL 5 – SOMEWHAT FEMININE Your Mom already knows. Smart girls in the office already know that 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. That would be okay if I wasn’t a woman. I guess I never grew out of the tomboy thing. And I think every woman should be able to change a tire. StG ---

Your score is 124 LEVEL 7 – 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. I dunno. I didn’t think I was -that- feminine. 😛 Most people mistake me as being kind of standoffish, really. 🙂 ---

Heheheheheh. Five. I sure hope you like waltz and one-step because that’s all I can lead. Just remember to reach from the hip in one-step so you don’t knee me, OK? Right foot back here we go… ---

I got 37, Level 2-Very Straight Acting. But the gender quiz said I’m a woman. Does this mean I’m a woman who sleeps with women, or a woman who sleeps with men? ---

OK, gender zealots! What if I’m a guy who really likes watching the WNBA gals do their hoops? If I were female, I don’t think a liking for the athletic females would increase my “femininity” rating, huh? But this here straighacting quizzie only asked about my appreciation for football. (OK, I like the college teams. Still scored a 6!). The dream team, crossing a few generations… Nancy Lieberman (Old Dominion) Kim Mulkie (Louisiana Tech) (the one with the pigtails) Cheryl Miller (California) Teresa Edwards (Georgia) Cheryl Swopes (currently with Houston; where WAS she in NCAA?) Rebecca Lobo (UConn) Teresa Weatherspoon (Louisiana Tech) Chamique Holdsclaw (Tennessee) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/how-straight-are-you-a-quiz-for-guys/53367.md?page=3)
