Here's an online empathy test.  Just curious.

My score was on the borderline between above average and extremely high.  However, I find that many of the subs that write to me don't have much empathy.  It would be interesting to see if it is higher in Dom/mes than in subs.

i do not think my score had to do with my kink as much as it did my intrinsic nature. :)

my score was 67 - very high

I think I went wrong with checking off "totally agree" on the one about "would you run over an old lady if she was between you and a shiny new nickel".

Your score: 63
0 - 32 = low (most people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism score about 20)
33 - 52 = average (most women score about 47 and most men score about 42)
53 - 63 is above average
64 - 80 is very high
80 is maximum

28... oh I'm a sad sick puppy.. o_o
I guess there really is a difference between having a lot of emotions and having a  lot of emotions that click with other people..
maybe master can teach me some new tricks in this area too.

Twentyish... no surprises there.

As far as I can tell, this measures tact and social graces, not empathy.

Health,
