This is a "legitimate" test in-so-far as it was developed by researchers at the University of Georgia. It was designed to test the theory that homophobia is a manifestation of repressed homosexual desire. The researchers reported difficulty finding heterosexual men who were "high-grade non-homophobic."
There is no such thing as homophobie, merely the healthy disgust of a sexual aberration.
You asked for it!
Two snaps!!!
"55 - Your score rates you as "homophobic."
In his 1996 study of 64 Caucasian, male college students, Dr. Henry Adams classed 35 participants as "non-homophobic." In 1980, a different research team found 56% of their white, male sample scored in the homophobic range. This is not conclusive, however. Dr. Adams, the researcher who helped develop this scale, writes that "a major difficulty of this area of research is in defining and measuring homophobia." Elsewhere, he cautions: Since there is no universally accepted definition of homophobia, the scales currently in use may not measure all aspects of homophobia.

What a bunch of baloney (in all the wrong places).
>>73 - Your score rates you as "homophobic."<<
That settles it - I'm afraid of homophones.
Too, to, and two just send me running in fear.
Replace all the questions with adulterer, pedophile, or rapist.
Interesting.
you and me both! (my score was 61)
My rating score was 60, apparently I'm "homophobic". Most of my answers were that I don't agree or disagree, and I take that means I usually don't care. Apparently what got me on the score was that I tend to choose my friends, and I usually exclude homosexuals from my list of friends, but what's wrong with that? Most homosexuals I know of are pretty blatant and seeing behaving effiminately just gets on my nerves.

I would rather see it called the "Homonauseated" scale - sick of homofaggots and thier aganda.

Don't need to take no stinkin' quiz.
Am homophobic and DDDAAMMMNNNN proud of it.
That would be option 3.
If you answer "3-neither agree nor disagree" on every question you get a 50. That is the highest non-homophobic score. If you switch even one answer to 2 or 4 (whichever is the "wrong" one) you get put into the homophobic column.
The best score I could get was 96.
" tend to choose my friends"...oops, meant that I'm picky about who I consider a friend.
Oh, HOMOphobic. I thought it was HOBOphobic(?)
