Alfred Kinsey is seen as the father of “sexology”, or studying human sexuality. This started in the 1930s or so, so he was extremely radical for his time. During his studies, he developed what is called the “kinsey scale”.
This is a scale that measures the sexual orientation of a person. of course, this is very subjective, and is not an actual scale. But basically, it’s a scale from 0-6, with 0 being exclusively heterosexual, and 6 being exclusively homosexual.
I personally believe that the majority population falls somewhere in the middle of this. My personal belief is that even if you say that someone of the same sex is attractive, then you are NOT a 0…even if a girl calls another girl pretty, they are not considered a 0 in my book.
But of course, this is only my opinion. I see nothing wrong with being gay, as I myself consider myself a lesbian.
I’ve always considered myself a 4.75 on the scale…sometimes I think a guy is attractive, but I never thought I’d date one. However, i just recently ended a relationship with Garcia. And with this end, I believe I’m officially shifting my kinsey scale ranking.
So as of May 12,2008, I consider myself a 5 on the kinsey scale.
