21 - Your score rates you as "high-grade non-homophobic."

In his 1996 study of 64 white, male college students, Dr. Henry Adams classed 29 participants as "non-homophobic." Their mean score was 30.48, however, placing most of the men outside of this sub-group. Dr. Adams reported that he had difficulty finding heterosexual men whose scores ranked them as high-grade non-homophobic

13 - some really stupid question. I do make jokes about gay people, and can sometimes use the parallel of the 'f' word in Russian, but I really try to cut down on that. Blame school . The funny thing is that I found out what it meant only a lot of time after it entered my "bad word" lexicon.

I got 9. Then I read this thread and thoroughly confused myself, as I thought the scale was 1 to 10, then I saw people getting higher scores which I assumed meant they were less homophobic than me, then realised I had it arse-end up, and in conclusion, I'm not homophobic.

it's blindingly obvious what you should choose to get a high score.

in any case, i still got a 15, mostly because i plum don't care what one's orientation is.

I suppose that no one has pointed out that homophobia is a misleading term since it assumes that one dislikes homosexuals because one is afraid of them. Yet another example of politics infecting language.

But isn't fear, or unsecureness, the main reason of anti-homosexual hatred?

Haha. I did the quiz with the scale wrong, I thought 5 = strongly agree, 1 = strongly disagree as it usually is.

Oh well.

92 - Your score rates you as "high-grade homophobic."

In his 1996 study of 64 Caucasian, male college students, Dr. Henry Adams classed 35 participants as "homophobic." Their mean score was 80.40, placing many of the study participants in the high-grade homophobic sub-group. 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.

Pekka, in answer to why I would take this test - I was waiting for my wife to finish diapering my little girl (she had a poopies after we climbed in the car - and we had to start all over again) and had to do something - it's that damnable curiousity flaw.

quote: I got 4... I am totally non-homophobic being gay myself.. and it doesn't matter to me who is gay or straight, as long as they have a big heart and are nice with me.

Knowing you Gian, I'd think that hating commies would also be a requirement.

i got a 17 high grade non homophobic. But i'm bi, so I guess that ort of means that i cheated, halfway

quote: The questions about poking fun at gays was silly. I have gay friends and we always tell gay jokes.

Totally same with me and my friends.

quote: I answered 1, I think all people usually 'deserve' what they get. What a silly question.

I didn’t answer the same, but I almost did.

Hating commies is a forum job I have here. I'm expected to do that. And kissing a guy on the lips and falling in love with him is different then believeing in illogical economic views.

Like my avatar? I think I'm gonna get a shitload of crap for this one.

Not the best quiz in the world. There were several horribly phrased questions, this one...

quote: "Do Gays deserve everything they get?"

... being the worst. What exactly is it that gays "get"? If they mean beatings and harassment, then of course I'm in strong disagreement. If they mean the backlash that comes from trying to significantly alter the meaning of social institutions like marriage, however, then I'm more neutral. I had to answer 3 on this one just because I couldn't figure out what the question referred to...
