Quiz: Am I Heteroflexible?

Last Updated 22.01.26

DISCLAIMER

This quiz is for entertainment only and cannot determine your sexuality or gender identity. It is not a diagnostic tool and shouldn't guide major life decisions. For genuine support with identity questions, please consult qualified LGBTQ+-friendly professionals. Your self-discovery journey is uniquely yours.

Heteroflexibility is a sexual orientation where a person predominantly experiences attraction to the opposite sex but sometimes may feel interest or attraction to their own sex. This isn’t an “experimental phase” – it’s a complete, valid orientation reflecting the natural fluidity of human sexuality. Research since the 1940s shows sexuality exists on a continuum, and heteroflexible people typically fall in the 1-2 range on the Kinsey scale (predominantly heterosexual with incidental same-sex attraction). If your sexuality doesn’t fit rigid frameworks and you’ve experienced occasional same-sex attraction alongside predominantly opposite-sex interest, this heteroflexible quiz explores your orientation.

The quiz examines patterns of sporadic same-sex attraction that arise unexpectedly, emotional openness to acknowledging atypical feelings, and content of your fantasies including same-sex scenarios. It also considers your reactions to same-sex representation in media and whether you’ve experienced past attractions to your own sex that you dismissed as admiration. Heteroflexibility differs from bisexuality in intensity (95/5 versus more balanced attraction) and often involves sexual curiosity without romantic interest in same-sex relationships. Your sexuality can evolve or remain stable – both are equally valid.
