Those nice people at Channel Four have just put up this test

http://www.channel4.com/gayometer

I came in at a measly 14% - apparently I'm too macho for modern times...

I think it could be better though. Do the test and then see if you can come up with something a bit more accurate.

Someone sent me this the other day... apparently 46%.

09:36 / 24.04.02

36% it tells me, did get a bit of shock though when the meter shoots up to 100% before you get the results

09:43 / 24.04.02

20%?? Well that's ok I suppose. I'm too straight for modern times.

The Return Of Rothkoid

09:49 / 24.04.02

Rothkoid is 50% gay!

Apparently.

When the loading screen wazzed up over 50%, I thought 'Hang on - I definitely said I was a cowboy, and I have no piercings at all. This can't be right.'

I wonder if the designer took this into consideration...

09:55 / 24.04.02

70% gay, apparently. I'm not sure I like the tone of the descriptions with the final percentages (I did it a few times with fake answers to see what the other blurbs were like - I'm trying to avoid work, ok??), but maybe I just have no sense of humour.

I'm allegedly 60% gay.

one of my gay friends only notched up 60%. at first i looked like i got 100%, which means i am "too gay", if there is such a thing -- but then i saw i had to click through to another screen. i got 43%.

My girlfriend just got told that if she's any more butch, she's going to have to fight off the girls. She got 63%...

The Knowledge

10:24 / 24.04.02

46%

The Knowledge

10:25 / 24.04.02

Or maybe it was 43%

Apparently, I'm a well adjusted hetero male with a score of 56%.

I'll sleep better knowing that.

Only 70%! Pah! I demand a recount. I want a score somewhere between Liza Minnelli and Doris Day...

According to their Gay-Pet-O-Meter, at
http://www.channel4.com/life/microsites/P/petometer/index.html
our queer boy cat just tips the scales at 53%.

Female cat refuses to play along with her brother's bender habits, with only a 40% gay pet score. Of course, she lives with two gay men and a gay-lite tom cat, so probably just as well.

46% Gay. Which apparently is well adjusted straight boy. Ho-hum. Guess my passion for decorating didn't tip me over.

At what percentage does the test tip over into raging, flaming homosexuality?

Captain Zoom

12:00 / 24.04.02

I got 50%, which I guess is just about right.

Zoom.

Dunno - one of my mates is panicking because he got 26%. That was just over the 'too straight' section. He was even scared to do the test, just in case the computer told him something he didn't want to know.
If nothing else, watching him made me feel wonderfully well adjusted.

Cavatina

12:27 / 24.04.02

I also got 50%.

Utopia

12:37 / 24.04.02

i'm 16%...i really expected to be more.

pacha perplexa

12:49 / 24.04.02

66% gay!!!!

I knew there was something tomboyish about me.

Matthew Fluxington

13:12 / 24.04.02

I'm 40%. I think that is less a test of how "gay" someone is, and more a question of how shallow you are...
