The Kinsey scale (brainchild of Dr. Alfred Kinsey) is used in to measure a person's sexual orientation based on their experiences or hypothetical action in a given situation. The scale ranges from 0-6..
0: super heterosexual👫
6: fabulously homosexual.👭
The theory itself is based on the fact that the human population is rarely ever exclusively heterosexual or homosexual.
The 1-5 on the scale displays the varying degrees of bisexuality.
Overall, roughly 90% of the population described themselves as heterosexual.
(In truth, only 3% of the population play for the same team)
Unfortunately, the Kinsey scale does not cover all forms of sexuality. Meaning, other sexual expressions such as pansexuality, demisexuality and asexuality can't be measured using that scale.
