IMO, this scale is useless because
1. people tend to be variant at different phases of their lives. The scale still works, but,
2. defines attraction as a binary scale, i.e., does not include pansexuals.
What does ‘incidently homosexual’ mean? Does fantasy count? Does one have had to had a physical homosexual relationship?
