Now, go back and see where you stand on the Gay ALert Level!!
19 should be "b" not "a" lol
but i got most right :)
emanoyhl IS correct, #19 should read: b)1973. THAT is the correct answer.
PS, emanoyhl, you didn't say what your actual score was....
Argggghhhhhh!!!!! 68! So close to 69, but not close enough for government work.
However,
#3 is a 'yes' or 'no' question. The name of the team would be irrelevent. A proper question for determining the name of the team could be "Which team lost in the Superbowl...?"
#7 "sand"???
#9 answers could be highly subjective (e.g. Bel Ami does not belong because it has two words in the name (damn the French)).
#10 has more than one anwer (at least 2 that I know of): The one hit wonder (if that) glam-punk-jazz group from 1979.
#12 isn't Denmark also legal for gay marriage?
If I had taken this test when I was 18 or 19 yrs old I would have scored in the straight category (due to lack of worldly and historic knowledge). I think this test could only be accurate for those over 25 or 30 yrs old. Some sort of 'weighting factor' for the responses by age (e.g. young people who get all the answers right should be given a higher score, or older people who don't know the answers should be given a lower score) and for specific questions would be appropriate.
I know, I know....my same old critical self. But that's about how bored I am here in the midwest. Also, my highly technical trained mind gets absolutely no work out here. (Would you or Ag consider adopting me? Please??)
Fairy Godfather.
1. Correct
2. Correct
3. I don't even know who WON the Super Bowl last year...as I recall, nobody cared.
4. These are a few of my faaaaaaaaavorite things... ;-)
5. Totally clueless on this one :(
6. I missed Carrie Weaver...but ONLY because ER sucks ass.
7. The Weather GirlD? ;-), typo :D but correct
8. Totally an educated guess :D
9. Bel Ami...the other three are football teams ;-)
10. A porn star? No. Oops.
11. I've been to the Halocaust museum in DC 4 times...I totally knew this one.
12. Only got three
13. Missed D and E
14. Got them ALL!
15. Huh?
16. Stayed off of Dupont Circle last year in DC...I saw these mags in EVERY window!
17. EWWWW. REAL WORLD?
18. Seriously, you're going to hold *THAT* against me?
19. Coincidentally, the same year I was born :D
20. Like a viiiiiiiiirrrrrriiiigin!! :D
Let's see...that gives me a 65 :D
Mark: the quiz is for fun, and is written from my perspective, intented NOT to be unbiased, or hell, even totally original. I just hope you had fun taking it.
Adoption...hmm, I'm a single gay man, i don't think I'm allowed to adopt. :)
Becca: Good for you. You're safely in the purple! I gave the quiz to Ghostie, the Dead Boy Wonder, and he got a 24.
....how can anyone hang with me as long as he has and yet still be so STRAIGHT????? :P
61 here Uncle Polt!! :)
My husband and I both took it...I was wrong.
I got a 27 and he got a 6.
Amie
6? a 6???? OhmiGOD, how does one get a 6? was he even TRYING? Or is he possibly just THAT str8? :P
Well, I got 80 points. I actually watched that Super Bowl (I'm a closet NFL fan) but couldn't remember.
Incidentally, do I get bonus points for answering #7 Weather Girls (with a remake by Martha Wash and RuPaul)?
;-)
David/Oakland (home of the NFL Raiders)
Yikes. I think I flunked. An 18. Although, if Denmark turns out to be true, I get an additional point. And I knew Provincetown was in New England, so I'm giving myself an extra point. And I was close on Stonewall and Psychology questions. So, 5 more points.
so, a 25....plus....50 for at least trying!!
So, a 75! Go me!!
as
OMG, I'm so gay, I got an F. 44 points. My partner Onanite was completely unimpressed.
Shame says, "At 65 I thought I was gay/bi & aware - wow a 14 pointer. Woe is me, Sydney Downunder...
