Important boundary

This questionnaire describes patterns in your answers. It does not diagnose autogynephilia, determine your gender identity, assess gender dysphoria, or tell you whether to pursue any treatment or transition pathway.

Your General Autogynephilia Scale results

Each score is a mean from 1 to 5. The comparison bars show published study-sample means, not population cut-offs.

How to use this information

Treat these results as a structured description of your answers. The two comparison groups were specific research samples, and closeness to either mean does not establish that you belong to that group. If these feelings are distressing or connected with gender dysphoria, consider discussing them with a clinician who can listen without shame and assess the whole picture.

What the comparison means

Reference samples, not diagnostic norms.

The paper compared 149 men recruited from AGP-themed Internet forums with 112 heterosexual men recruited through Mechanical Turk who reported never cross-dressing. Neither group was a representative population sample.

01

Continuous scores

The profile shows degree and pattern across the 22 answers. It does not place people into severity bands.

02

Exploratory evidence

The authors described most analyses as exploratory and recommended replication.

03

One part of a person

A questionnaire score cannot determine identity, wellbeing, dysphoria, relationships, or the right life path.
