Or maybe not. For about five minutes it seemed to me that the degree of willingness to stay in a marriage in spite of coming out, as reflected in blog postings, lined up with the test scores posted at various blogs. I got all creeped out about this, and couldn't see how it could be, until I remembered that my test score makes no sense to me, and that all you need to do to change it is to drop relationship with "other sex" off the ideal end of the grid. Well, once you have done that, you probably have made a decision that OUGHT to be reflected in a test score, if not elsewhere. Anyway, this is all a roundabout way of saying that this test had me in its clutches until I realized that self-knowledge precedes it -- even if in error. We are all self-predicting our scores. Now that I know that my eventual final score is still in my own hands, I can go off to my spelling bee in good conscience.
