Question: What websites would you recommend to find out where on the trans-gender spectrum you land?

I really have not explored at any length good websites on these kind of tests. A few months ago I posted my results of the COGIATI test. Run a search on google for 'cogiati' and you'll find lots of sites that can give you the test. However, keep in mind it is only for entertainment purposes. Generally, tests that label or try to predict behavior are just very hard to be accurate. The test needs to be very well designed and even if it is, it would still be a challenge to capture the intricacies and complexity of the human mind.

Take the test, any test, and have fun with it. Don't take it too seriously. Be what you want to be and don't let labels define you.

COGIATI score of -40

A few weeks ago I was bored and took the COGIATI test. The test tells you where in the transgender spectrum you are. The questions are totally gender biased. It is the same as flipping a coin. If you have half a brain you can skew the results to get what you want to hear. I took it for entertainment value and answered the questions as truthfully as possible; here is my result.

Your COGIATI result value is: -40 Which means that you fall within the following category:

COGIATI classification THREE, ANDROGYNE

What this means is that the Combined Gender Identity And Transsexuality Inventory has classified your internal gender identity to be essentially androgynous, both male and female at the same time, or possibly neither. In some cultures in history, you would be considered to be a third sex, independent of the polarities of masculine or feminine. Your gender issues are intrinsic to your construction, and you will most likely find your happiness playing with expressing both genders as you feel like it.

SUGGESTIONS FOR ACTION:

Your situation is a little tricky in our current society, but not tremendously so, depending on your geographic location. The suggestions for your circumstance are not overly complicated.

1. If you have any comfortability about your gender expression, some slight degree of counseling might well prove helpful. The primary goal would be to make it possible for you to enjoy your gender expressions free from any shame or embarrassment, and to resolve any remaining questions you might have.

2. As an androgynous being, both genders, and both sexes are natural to your expression. Permanent polarization in either direction might bring significant unhappiness. It is not recommended that you go through a complete transsexual transformation. You might find a partial transformation of value, if you find yourself more attracted overall to the feminine. You are more likely a transgenderist, than a transsexual. It is recommended that you recognize that your gender issues are real, but that extreme action regarding them should be viewed with great caution.

3. If you have not already, consider joining any of the thousands of groups devoted to gender play of various varieties. There is literally a world of friends to discover who share your interests. There are also publications, vacations, and activities that would expand your gender play.
