Well, to be honest I’ll still trying to establish how “incidentally” is best interpreted in my personal-experience and personal-preference continuum. I think there was definitely a time when I was contemplating the ways in which I could respond to attentions from guys, even it was pretty shy contemplation. Then there were some incidents, the unpleasantness of which sort of shook me up and caused me to reassess things and I ended up practicing exclusively on the other side after all.
The “0.7412” was my snide way of saying that the Kinsey scale itself implies a permanent point on a linear scale which is more precise than I feel about it…
I know what you mean. Before I even knew about the Kinsey Scale I thought up my own scale on a basis of 1 through 10, which would capture a wider range of sexual orientations. Kinsey probably didn’t want to give people too much of a choice. At least it beats the usual three point scale: straight, bi, or gay.
Firmly 6 here, although at one time in my life I would’ve rated a 4.5 or 5. I usually refer to that period as my “when-I-tried-to-convince-myself-that-I-was-straight” phase. But I grew out of it!
Damn. I should have some incredibly witty, smart-ass comment about this thread, but I just can’t think of anything. It’s too early in the morning, I guess.
