'''The Kinsey Scale''' was developed by Alfred Kinsey, as a way to measure one's sexual attraction. It has six rungs, from exclusively [[Straight|heterosexual]] to exclusively [[Gay|homosexual]]. It is a common way of measuring these things, however since it doesn't include identities on the [[asexual Spectrum|asexual spectrum]] or [[aromantic Spectrum|aromantic spectrum]], it has recently been overtaken by several other sources.
