01/06/2004: "There's something wrong with this thing."

I am a heterosexual man. When see pictures of scantily clad chicks, I get aroused. When I see a pretty woman, I want to ask her out.

I am able to appreciate a man's good looks in an aesthetic and evolutionary sense. I can tell why women would find him attractive - height, good cheekbones, looks strong etc. However good looking men arouse nothing in me but envy, because they get all the chicks.

As previously mentioned, I like chicks. I also like computer games that involve guns, heavy metal, burping and am an insufferable slob. Admittedly while not stereotypically heterosexual in all respects (I have a sense of romance, don't like football, can cook and don't understand cars), I am not so atypical as to appear anything but straight. Why, then, does this test http://www.burlyadventurer.com/quiz/index.tcl?gay say I'm gay and is 81.38% confident in its answer?

I did the test a second time, incase something went wrong. The results were a bit better - that time it was only 62% positive I was bent. How many times will I need to be tested before I get an accurate representation of my sexuality?

It isn't being thought of as gay that I'm peturbed about. It's just how massively inaccurate it is. If it had been 'You are Gay. We are 30% confident in our answer', that's fine. 81.38% though? How does that happen? Is there something I'm not admitting to myself? Am I unlucky with women because they think I fancy their brothers?

What have my parents not told me?

You, of course, considered that 'The Burly Adventurer' is in fact light in the loafers himself, and is simply drumming up business, as it were.

My condolences. They were about 70% sure I was straight. Although it asks about its accuracy at the end. Perhaps it's self-adjusting and doesn't have a lot of data in it yet to be very accurate.

On the other hand, if you're noticing men's cheekbones...suits you, sir.

Best not put too much stock in an Internet quiz. I know we look upon it as omnicient, but you need to remember it has been cobbled together over many years by people not unlike ourselves.
