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."


TOPICS: Culture/Society; Your Opinion/Questions
KEYWORDS: bs; conartists; doyouwantaride; gaycowboyseatpudding; havesomecandy; homophobia; homosexualagenda; howtocorruptsomeone; pillowbiters; quiz; repressed

There is no such thing as homophobie, merely the healthy disgust of a sexual aberration.

"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.

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.

Yep. Thirty-seven for me. I just don't care what other people do. I have my standards, they have theirs. I can live with that with no problem whatsoever.

My problem with the current climate is how hard they are trying to get my approval. No, not a approval...fawning adoration. Why do they need me involved at all?

As far as I am concerned, do what you want—just don't make me watch, come between me and how I wish to raise my children...and quit trying to tear down traditional institutions such as marriage and the church.

Beyond that, I just don't care.

Seems like they should add a question about gay cowboys.

I didn't take the test, were there any questions about pudding?

“Have you ever seen a black-and-white hippy movie about gay cowboys eating pudding?”

I got a 48 too. But I suspect that was because I answered Strongly Disagree about whether I would hit a gay who propsitioned me. I picked that because it would be too embarrassing to be thlapped thilly if I lost the fight. :-).

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.
