I guess it’s not easier to find the right website with proper updates software and accurate questions.

They were told by members, when they first introduced the test, that the questions just weren't good enough, thst they weren't specific enough, that they return false results & they didn't bother doing anything & still push the test knowing it's inaccurate.

I like taking the beauty of some test two or three times a year because I always end up in a new class and learn something new but for the majority of it stays the same for me after 10 years in the community

You take a driver's test and the DNV. You could of failed bc you had a shitty day. Don't mean you're a bad driver. You just didn't get your license.

That's just life and this these test are simply the same.

Good day-

The one here is good but not as good as the original online which if you google you should come across. The online one is much more comprehensive which for some is a good thing and for some is bad
But they in my opinion should only be used as a loose guide as they can often lead to false assumptions

[th****]

I’ve wondered this too! Do any of them publish how the results are driven from the answers? Could you recreate the “grading” of the test?

[Pe****]

Do you seriously need a test to determine whether you are a D or S type?

[ro****]

No, but maybe it gives you a hint that you _might_ be more than 'just' ... 🫠 and you may take it as a chance to investigate that, if you want to.

[Sl****]

I wouldn’t say it’s important, but it might give you a better understanding of your self and what to look for.

The only problem is some of the question need more context.

So for instance, things like “would you enjoy watching your partner play with somebody else” it’s too vague.

I wouldn’t enjoy watching them play with another fella, I would enjoy watching them play with another woman.

So how do you answer that question?

But questions where there is a clear cut answer I think are helpful.

There might be specific things you hadn’t thought of that the test highlights, that allows you to look into new kinks and learn more about yourself.

Good point well made. “Are you a sub luv?”

Yeh

“Cool, well he’s a Dom so crack on”

“Who’s next?”

[Do****]

I took it, and the math was all off.

[Ja****]

Mine was mostly right some wrong who's to say but it's fun

[Deleted Member]

It's not that deep bro

[Lo****]

I've never found them accurate or even useful for exploring my own kinks.

[co****]

I think taking the test helps to know which way it going and it helps just starting out but that's my opinion it's helped my subs

[Deleted Member]

People should, all the information ultimately determines if I’ll reach out

[Deleted Member]

It doesn't tell you specifically what you're into, but it helps me gauge who Dom or sub someone might be which as @InnocentBrat stated does determine if I'll reach out of if I'm even interested. But personally not a deal breaker if you haven't. But if you have a bare minimum intro, one photo, no stats, AND you can't even take the test, that is (imo) when you should at least take it.

I've taken them over the years and I find it stays pretty accurate even when my interests change

i do not think everyone shld take the bdsm test on here, no,, at least in a way where the results impact ur play,, i personally found the test invaluable, but this doesn’t mean others that look ar ur profile will find it the same ! i feel as though i wld have to skew my answers in order for them to b accurate and display what i actually enjoy,,
idk if it’s common for results to change after some time once you’ve explored but i personally think it is common,, u most likely will not know everything u like / dislike when u initially start exploring kink, especially likes/dislikes in theory vs practice + those likes / dislikes will also most likely change, mine are constantly changing,, my ex n i wld take the generic “bdsm” test that u can find on the web every couple of months or so + our results both drastically changed, i highly recommend doing this alone or with ur partner(s), it can create super meaningful, dynamic conversations around things u may not have thought about before !! i also recommend taking “The Big Kink Survey” as this is the most “in depth” one i have found + it made me realize to what length i am into specific kinks
