Unleash Your Inner Explorer: Discover Your Kink Quotient with this Science-Based Test

Tuesday, August 27, 2024

A groundbreaking new study from the University of Brighton in the UK has unveiled the Kink Orientation Scale, an online test that measures your personal 'kink factor' and sheds light on the diversity of human sexuality. This 18-question test embraces both real-life and fantasy kink enthusiasts, validating the spectrum of non-normative sexual interests. The Kink Orientation Scale explores five aspects of kink engagement: identity, paraphernalia, community, practices, and communication.

The results are calculated on a 90-point scale, with 90 indicating the highest kink engagement. This comprehensive test aims to bridge the gap in previous research, which often overlooked those who are aroused by kink but do not act on those desires.
