Sexual Preferences Survey

In this survey you will be asked about your degree of sexual attraction to a number of attributes of the human body. You will also be asked if you, your parents, or your partner have any of these attributes. The survey is part of the Internet Sex Survey Initiative. The only criterion for participation is that you are an adult (aged 18 or older).

If you are uncertain about the definition of an attribute, remember that the most important thing is that you use the same definition throughout. For instance if you and your mother have a similar hair color, it is not very important whether you choose to label it blond or dark, but it is extremely important that you are consistent in the label you choose!

We have strived to construct a gender-neutral and complete set of questions. As a consequence, some questions might appear superfluous in your particular case. Please keep in mind, however, that it is important for our statistical analyses that you answer all questions.

Completing the survey should take about 15 minutes (probably less).
