Elan, this quiz was engineered to gauge the compatibility of one sub male (me) with a given dominant woman.  It has nothing to do with whether a woman walks around in fetish gear 24/7.  Maybe one question out of forty-five had to do with wardrobe.  Some of the items, if answered yes, would make a woman very compatible with me in that area.  Other yes answers would mean we do not have that in common.  For example, if a woman loves to have a sissy maid, she would be perfect for some slaves...but she and I would probably not be a good match.  Same for tats and piercings.
Lots of folks complain about not being able to find matches.  BDSM checklists are good screeners.  I think individualized quizzes would be even better.

Perhaps I didn't judge your quiz fairly.  I can see the logic (and attraction) in your idea.  However, two things came accross while taking your test.  First, I don't know anything about you so to have a test full of fetishes presents a very single dimensional picture of the partner you're looking for.  This is what I meant by "a woman who walks around in fetish gear twenty-four hours a day".  I did not mean this in the literal sense... though, to those taking your test, that is an impression it gives... kink twenty-four hours a day.  Second, because only you know what you're looking for and the nature of a "quiz" means you cannot reveal this, the whole thing feels underhanded.  How can you grade someone when critical knowledge is withheld?  Also, the resulting score means little to those taking the test because it's difficult to tell what answers/attributes caused the score.  In other words, for those attempting to determine compatibility with you, they are only marginally further ahead after taking the test than before.

I did take your second, non-sexual test.  Hmmm.  Interesting.  Still, I had similar problems with it and some new ones.  For example, in many cases the answer options do not reflect my views so I had to choose something that is a false answer.  Another problem is that often you combine more than one attribute in an answer and the presets given do not encompass all permutations available.  For example, when you introduced white versus black ethnicity prescribed to a particular view, the answer that best described me was only available for those of black ethnicity and thus I could not choose it.

Good idea!  Maybe all the interested ones took it already.  I made up another one...totally non sexual items.

Hello Kal,

I will nitpick in my evaluation, but only in the name of science.

In self reporting, it is important to allow the test taker to feel comfortable with their answer. Many of your questions have three options. Alpha Affirmative, Beta Affirmative and Alpha Negative.

While the volunteers taking your quiz are probably self aware enough to overcome the biased questions (biased because having two questions with varying degrees of "yes" and a very firm "no" suggest the "right" answer). The pictures also support a kink enabled choice, which could prime decisions. More notably, since the questions do not have a balanced scale of response, one cannot accurately reflect how much (or how little) one cares about any specific element. A standardized set of "Highly agree, agree, no opinion, disagree, highly disagree" would fix that problem. (Interesting note, if you don't want your test takers to give a neutral response, use an even number of responses).

To encourage honest responses, it should be made very clear that the test is anonymous and only for their knowledge (unless you actually receive data). Also, not allowing the test taker to change their answer increases accuracy of response. When I read a series of footplay questions, I may be tempted to change a previous one to be less (or more) energetic.

By reading the questions I know more about the interviewer than I should. Distancing yourself from the exam cleans up the data (but also makes the test dry and boring).

Remember, inaccurate information does not serve you and being unable to accurately answer questions does not serve them. I would add a comment section to each question (if the software supports that), to gather missing qualitative data.



And most importantly... You seem to be an anti-Batman sympathizer, which is unacceptable in any slave boy.
