Another one coming out of lurkdom for this one.

Male, 2.

Got propositioned by a gay friend and one of his gay friends in Mexico. Thinking now I probably should have taken them up on it.

Somewhere between a 2 and a 4, haven’t figured out quite where, yet. Oh, just put me down as a 3.

I wouldn’t say I straddle the fence (like a 3 or 4) but I hopped it once.

Will be interested at the results of this…

Ok, **Qadgop** , by my quick count that’s about 24 new data points since your last shameless bump. We’re all hoping you’ve got enough data now to really grind some numbers. Perhaps you will open a new thread soon (you’re gathering data this week, right?) to keep us updated with your progress, gleanings, and frustrations in this much viewed and many-posted project?

And by the way, my arm-chair prediction is that the average reported female score will be at least a point higher than the average reported male score.

Male, 0.

0.5 if you count the odd dream or thinking that guy in _The Crying Game_ was hot.

Thanks guys and gals. Number crunching coming up. I’ll post results as soon as I get them. Might take longer than I thought; at work they seem to expect me to do work, and it’s Mrs. Mercotan’s Birthday today, so I’m unable to apply myself quite as I had planned.

Could a mod close this, please? No more data points please, I’ve downloaded the thread and probably won’t revisit it.

Thanks again dopers!
