The Kink Scale

I've been MIA for a while, so I'm back with a scale.

Simple, if you had to rate yourself on "kinkiness", where would you fall on this 1-7 scale. Unlike my other scales however, I will not be providing examples for each level, as I would have to say things I'm not particularly comfortable with. There are FAR more "kinky" things than bondage...

So, judge for yourself. Where do you fall?

Huh? Does that scale even make sense? Aren't "no kink" and "neutral" the same in this case?

That's not kinky, that's warped.

Bravo.

To each their own, something kinky to one may not be kinky to the other. Need to specify what you mean (in general, sorta). Some people consider giving head 'kinky'. But I'm not one, it's natural to me. Is tossing salad kinky in your book? Or are you going all out to getting it on with animals(which isn't even 'kinky to some'). Or is having sex in front of ppl 'kinky' on your scale? I'll just vote a bit above the middle.

What I was getting at was "neutral kinkiness" means you are just as willing to do something "kinky" as you are not to.

Okay, I'm totally going to get on your nerves, but wouldn't pretty much everybody fall under that category then? Because even if someone likes doing "extremely kinky" stuff, it's not very likely they're not "just as willing" to do something less kinky. Not mayn people are going to have themselves chained to their basement flogging cross every night - chances are they're having more or less vanilla sex most of the time.

Mmm... vanilla sex.

I agree. I know some people who would think that s&m is too kinky and others that think that orgies with wildlife are normal. I can't rate myself on a scale that I don't know much about.

I thought it was based on how willing you are to do something you consider kinky.

Yeah. I'm often amused by myself, but then again I live an otherwise boring life.

oh, how willing am I to do something I consider kinky?

oh not very likely, but I know about too much stuff that scares/confuses me. I think a lot of stuff that I actually do, would be considered kinky by a normal person though.

Why get a life?
What you want is a Sex Life. They're good, but more expensive.

Kinky stuff is a sin, and sexual relations are to be had in complete darkness done inaudibly for the sole purpose of married couples procreating.

There, now that I have the obligatory fundie quote out if the way, I would consider myself a little adventurous, in the guise of "I'll try anything once." Some exceptions are anything too gross, too painful, or permanently damaging, but name it and I might try it. My fiancee is a bit less adventurous, but she does enjoy being a "slave" to my "master." (And I know she reads this forum from time to time, so if she asks, this is her cat posting as me.)

Comrade...you just need to judge for yourself. You don't need me to explain. You must decide.

I wouldn't pay half a cent for the sex that costs money around here. Even if I am yearning for a decent boinking.

In that case, my vote still stands. Above neutral, but not extreme.

Ah, whatever, it's just a NS poll, who am I kidding? :p *off to vote*

I'm not real clear on what makes something kinky or not. I mean, I like being adventurous, but my partner and I both find pain an extreme turn-off. I also find myself with very limited ideas, and a limited willingness to expose myself to most places with more ideas. So I rated myself a little bit kinky, but probably less so than a "normally kinky" person.

My above neutral wasn't a 'throw in'. I was meaning the things I do with just me and him. I'm not with threesomes, orgies or beastiality. If I'm not satisfied with what my man and I can do alone.. there's a problem, being that I'm turned on by our connection, trust and knowledge of one another.

Have to backstep a bit.. I've always had a fantasy of being with more than one man at one time.. I have no freakin desire to be in a sexual relationship with another female.. I love men... White men to be exact. But this would only go over as long as I'm not in a serious relationship.. especially not married.

I'm pretty open-minded, most times I'll go further into than the guys I date. But there are some things I just won't go for. No critters, bodily fluids except the obvious ones (make up your own mind on that one) and not really crazy about groups.

I put myself as level three, which I now regret, seeing as how I'm the only one there thus far..... :(

What can I say? I'm "inventive", but I don't consider myself "kinky".

shwew - glad I am not the only level 7 anymore - I was getting worried, although I fear that the other level 7's might have put it up as a joke.

Is a cucumber smothered in butter, kinky?

I am merely asking hypothetically of course.:rolleyes:

By itself or are you doing something specific with it? Yes I can imagine the possibilities and I think it might be kinky or it might be a good snack.
