Can a Lesbian Quiz Answer the Question?

Can a Lesbian Quiz Answer the Question?
By Patricia Cheney




Are you confused about your sexual orientation? Have you tried one or all of the lesbian quizzes on the internet trying to figure yourself out? If you have, you probably still aren't sure. If you haven't don't waste your time. The only real way to determine your sexual orientation is to look deep inside yourself. The answer lies within you...in your heart you probably already know what that answer is.



If you are seeking out quizzes and questioning your sexual orientation, something must have happened to make you do that. That is the first place you should start your inner search. Were you attracted to someone of the same sex? Did a lesbian scene in a movie or book turn you on? Ask yourself if it was a one-time thing or if it has happened before. The more attractions you have had, the more likely you are lesbian.



Along with examining your feelings toward women, you also have to think about how you've felt toward the men in your past. If you have been attracted to men, try to determine if your feelings for women have been stronger. Also take a look at the number of attractions of each sex you have had. If there are only 1 or 2 men you can think of, but several women, that should tell you something.



In fact, the most confusing aspects of determining your sexual orientation will probably center around your relationships with men. Because sexual orientation is theorized to exist on a continuum, you may lean heavily toward lesbianism, but still have an occasional attraction to a man. Typically, the attraction will be of shorter duration and less intense that with women, however. Even more confusing, it is possible for some lesbians to enjoy a sex with a man.



The most important thing to remember is that physical sex is not the hallmark of lesbianism. The most important factor is romantic attraction. In short, falling in love. If you have fallen head over heels, crazy in love with a woman, if you can't get her off your mind, you probably don't need a quiz. You probably already know and are trying to confirm it.



If you have examined all these issues and still spend significant time and emotional energy in confusion about your orientation, it might be time to consult a professional to help you sort things out. It is best to find a therapist or coach who specializes in sexuality and who you can feel comfortable with.

How to Write a Quiz in 6 Easy Steps - Part 2

How to Write a Quiz in 6 Easy Steps - Part 2
By Hope Wilbanks




In Part 1 of this article, I showed you the first three steps to writing a great quiz. First, you chose the topic of your quiz. Next, you determined the reason for the quiz. Last, you decided what kind of quiz to write.



Now comes the fun part...writing your quiz. Ready? Let's get started! Here are the final steps to writing your quiz.



Step 4: Write the questions.



Keeping the purpose of your quiz in mind, you will now write questions for your quiz. This is often the part where writers freeze up and quit. Don't stop now!



Let's say the topic of your quiz is house plants, and the purpose of the quiz is to determine whether or not your quizzer has a green thumb. Keeping this in mind, you might write questions like:



1. How often should you water an ivy?



2. Where is the best spot to place a potted plant?



TIP: If you are writing a True or False quiz, remember to write questions that have an affirmative answer (yes or no).



Step 5: Fill in the rest of the quiz.



After you've written all the questions for your quiz, you'll need to go back fill it in. For example, if you are writing a multiple choice quiz, write 3-5 possible answers, making one of those the correct answer. If you are writing a quiz that will require the test-taker to score points, write statements that result in yes or no answers.



Using the example above, let's plug multiple choice answers into one of the questions:



1. How often should you water an ivy?



a. Every week.



b. Every day.



c. Every hour.



d. Every three months.



TIP: Keep it simple, sweetie.



Step 6: Write the summary.



The end of your quiz should contain two parts: the results of the quiz and the call to action (the purpose of your quiz).



First, explain to the quizzer how to tally their results. Then give them the findings of their results. The final part of your summary should also contain a call to action. Now that they've taken the quiz and learned the results, what should they do now? Give your reader specific direction that they can take away from the quiz.



Using the house plant quiz sample above, the end of your quiz might contain the following results for quizzers:



If you answered mostly A's, you have a green thumb. In fact, you probably have a house full of beautiful, blooming plants right now. Keep up the good job!



If you answered mostly B's, you have a good chance of growing indoor plants. Sometimes you might forget to water your plants, but overall you're able to maintain pretty plants. Remember to feed and water your plants regularly and your plants will love you forever.



If you answered mostly C's, you should stay away from plants altogether. You're most likely to neglect or kill even the toughest of greenery. Opt for live-like silk plants instead.



TIP: Keep your quiz fun and light. If your quiz is on a more serious topic, you might want to include some background research information in your summary.
