Open Sex Role Inventory- My Results

Has anyone done this? I learned of this little quiz on another website & took the test. My masculinity score was: 75. My femininity score was 90. This places me in the "undifferentiated" quadrant outside of the areas where 70% of men score as well as outside where 70% of women would score but closer to where 70% of women score than to where 70% of men score.

Here's a link to the quiz should anyone wish to take it:

If you do please share your results!

Interesting
102 masculinity
100 femininity
I'm the most boring of boring since 100 is the average score

I expected my femininity to be lower than that lol but the other does not surprise me.

Your score for masculinity was 111.
Your score for femininity was 91.

Your score for masculinity was 89.
Your score for femininity was 90.

I'm male.

I got 103 for masculinity and 93 for femininity. Near the middle expected score for men and just outside the expected score for women. Roughly what I expected. I'm a bit androgynous, psychologically/emotionally.

Femininity 114
Masculinity 69

Masculinity 81
Feminity 121

Masculinity: 85
Femininity: 84

I'm not too impressed with this test. I would have asked questions that seem more directly correlated with masculinity and femininity. But even so, I don't think we can accurately measure a person's masculinity/femininity, simply because there are too many variations as to how they are expressed. Each personality has its own unique expression of masculinity/femininity.

Your score for masculinity was 93.
Your score for femininity was 115.

No surprises here!

I was almost equal on each one. I don't understand why there were so many questions about starting fires. Is that really a man thing?

Results of the Open Sex Role Inventory
The OSRI scores on two scales: masculinity and femininity. Scores for each scale are set so that that the average score of everyone is 100 (with a standard deviation of 15).

Your score for masculinity was 78.
Your score for femininity was 115.

Your scores are plotted below (horizontal axis is femininity, vertical axis is masculinity).


According to Sandra Bem, high levels of both masculinity and femininity is androgyny and is psychologically healthy. Low levels of both is undifferentiated. As expected, men score higher on this test for masculinity and women score higher for femininity. The graph below shows the general areas where most people of each gender fall (e.g. 70% of men get a score within the red line).

I don't remember my exact scores, but I fall right in the middle of the circle that represents 70% of men.

Even though I was assigned female at birth, I've always had a masculine/male personality/mind/soul (however you want to describe it) even though I don't necessarily relate to a lot of masculine physical traits and may or may not transition. It makes sense that I would relate more to masculinity.

Totally agree.

My results...

Your score for masculinity was 135.

Your score for femininity was 105.

Your score for masculinity was 117.
Your score for femininity was 79.

Yes building fires is cool

Your score for masculinity was 93.
Your score for femininity was 79.

Meh

Your score for masculinity was 89.
Your score for femininity was 89.

Oh dear, but I feel like there is a bit of a flaw. I had a very domineering brother and I feel like without that I might think differently on a few things.

score for masculinity was 82
score for femininity was 102

Thank you for sharing, Skeezyks! That was interesting.

I think that these quizzes and other short quizzes have to be taken with a grain of salt. Obviously they are not in depth studies. I do think its commendable that they recognize that we all have stereotypically “male”and “female” characteristics. However, labeling traits as male or female ironically seems to hark back to old fashioned attitudes.
I think these short quizzes are meant to prompt thinking and more in depth reading on whatever subject, not a blind acceptance.

I wonder how much of this has to do with perceived gender norms vs innate sex characteristics?

Your score for masculinity was 96
Your score for femininity was 126

Some of those questions are obviously girl/boy oriented. At least from my perspective. But them again I set things on fire with a magnifying glass when I figured it out. Lol!!

Ha!

Masculinity 81, Femininity 88.

Well...clearly this isn't a serious test. I just thought it was curious; although I have to say, in retrospect, I think my results were pretty descriptive. Actually even the title is inaccurate. It should properly be titled the Open Gender Role Inventory. I don't think there's any "blind acceptance" going on here.

I found it very interesting Skeezyks. My results were not thoroughly surprising but I did expect to score a bit higher on my masculine side. I actually love quizzes like this. Did you take any others from that site? I found a personality quiz I've never taken before. Divides people into 9 different personas and describes averages and extremes for each. Very, very interesting. As always, Skeezyks, thank you for sharing your info
