The sexual life belong to those who will care about the humanity always. Especially issues of sexual identity. For this there is a special tool – Kinsey scale. Let's look at them in more detail.
This is a scientist-biologist, sexologist, who spent most of his life in a College town in America in the Midwest. Now it is named after the Institute.
His career in science began with an interest in entomology. He prepared and published a biology textbook for high school students. But Kinsey left more as the father of sexology, rather than as a great biologist. The study of the variations of mating among the insects led him to believe that there may be different options of sexual behaviour. The Professor was developed by the Kinsey scale, which allows to determine the orientation of a person.
In 1935, Kinsey for the first time expressed the results of their research in the field of sexology in public. Reports on the results of interviews of thousands of people, became a bestseller, made a celebrity of their author and still remain popular.
Coincidence or not, but the researches of Professor coincided with a period which is known as "sexual revolution”. Of course, they sparked fierce debate. He was accused of corruption, believed it to be the work of mentally decomposing, accused of sexual relations with children, and that his research built on surveys of prisoners. Until now, the name Kinsey may cause an aggressive reaction, as it is believed that he legitimitely homosexuality. Thanks to the research of Professor Kinsey homosexuality was removed from the list of mental diseases.

Even after decades after the scientist's death, you can hear the continuation of the controversy. His research is trying to blame the presence of statistical and methodological errors. But that doesn't change the magnitude of the contribution of the scientist in the field of science, which had previously been under strict prohibition.
It is a tool for measuring sexual orientation of people. To this end, developed a six-point scale. From one end of the scale is located the absolute geteroseksualnoe, from the other side of absolute homosexuality. Despite the fact that a six-point scale, in fact there are eight gradations: 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,.
Researcher says that there is no absolute discreteness, in most cases, the Association.
This is not a psychological test. Although called “Kinsey Scale” on the Internet you can find a huge number of tests. It is a way of self-assessment, when man himself determines, on the basis of sexual experience that has been experienced over the past three years.
This means that the scale does not reveal hidden preferences or something, what the person himself does not suspect. Another important conclusion – the rating may change throughout life depending on changing nature of sexual intercourse.
On the basis of the Kinsey scale, the test also exists, but this is a modifications created by other researchers based on the work of Professor.
Kinsey Scale for men and women are exactly the same. To find it in one place, you need to consider the number of sexual encounters with persons of either gender. Important point - it contacts! Not fantasies, erotic dreams, watched videos and interviews on intimate topics. Only real contacts.
If a homosexual experience you have in General – this corresponds to the value 0.
If you have contacts with persons of the same sex to be episodic, and with persons of the opposite sex – regular, this situation corresponds to the value 1.
If the experience of persons of both sexes quite a lot, but with the opposite - more, this corresponds to a value of 2.
Equality of experience corresponds to the figure 3.
Accordingly, with a small advantage on the side of homosexual contact – 4, with a considerable margin – 5, and if you have experience of sex with her sex and lack of sex with the opposite – 6.
If you study for three years never had sex at all, this corresponds to x – asexuality.
In fact, it is one question and seven possible answers to it. That's all. No mystery and mysticism. So if you wanted to reveal the secret inclination of your husband or a girlfriend and thought that this will help the Kinsey scale in Russian, you have to give up on this idea. It will not work.
If you still want to play, then there is a modification of the test, which was developed by Fritz Klein. Especially interesting, from this point of view, Kinsey scale for women. To pass the test easily on the Internet online.
Why for women? They often ask questions about sexual orientation, although men are too. The variation of the Klein known as “the Bars of sexual orientation” and contains 21 questions. This test contains questions not only about real experiences in the past, but also about the person what gender are you attractive, in particular in a situation ifyou were free from fears and prejudices. Persons of what sex you would like to experience the sexual experience, if it were the ideal situation, when you are free from prejudices and fears, who are present in the fantasies and dreams? In the test there are even questions about the emotional preferences and preferences in communication. The result is given in percentage of homosexuality, bisexuality, heterosexuality and asexuality.
Try it and may learn about yourself or about a partner something interesting. But do not take the test results too seriously.
