ABOUT Basics

The thirty-five items here are the ordinary range: making out, deep and neck kissing, massage, dirty talk, sexting, sending and receiving nudes, mutual masturbation, fingering and handjobs, oral, 69, face sitting, vaginal and anal sex, condomless sex, finishing inside, facials, swallowing, vibrators, dildos, butt plugs, lingerie, blindfolds, light restraint, spanking, hair pulling, light choking, edging, multiple rounds, shower sex, morning sex, and filming yourselves. Nothing on the shelf needs a specialist vocabulary, which is why this is the set to take first if you want a picture of your tastes before deciding whether the BDSM, Sapphic, or MM shelves are worth your time.

You get one slider per item and the vial above it fills as you drag, live, with nothing to submit. Giving and receiving are split into separate items for fingering, handjobs, and oral, so you can put an 85 on being on the receiving end and a 15 on doing it without the two flattening into one lukewarm answer. The ✕ beside a slider sets that item to 0 in one tap: the vial stays empty and takes a red cross, which reads as a hard limit rather than a low score. Everything above 0 falls into one of four colour bands (1–33, 34–66, 67–99, and 100 for a vial filled to the neck), so the whole shelf stays readable at thumbnail size while the fill height keeps the exact number you chose.

Once every item has a number, Save draws the shelf on your device as one image — to post, to send someone before a first night, or to keep and compare against next year's. Because Basics covers the common ground, it is the shelf people stack the others on top of: take BDSM, Sapphic, or MM afterwards and it saves as its own separate shelf, which is what makes two people's shelves comparable side by side. Your ratings live in this browser's localStorage, so there is no account, nothing is uploaded, and they will not show up on your phone. Nothing at the end tells you what type you are; what the shelf means is yours to decide.

0A hard no. Not low priority — ruled out, and not up for discussion.
1–33Low. You would go along with it for someone; you would never suggest it.
34–66Middle. Fine when the mood is right, easy to stop, no strong pull either way.
67–99High. Something you want, and would ask for.
100Full to the neck. A standing yes you would arrange your evening around.

Frequently asked Basics

Frequently asked

What is the Basics kink test?
It is a thirty-five item self-rating list covering general sexual preferences: kissing, oral, toys, positions, and light kink. You give each item a number from 0 to 100 on a slider, which fills a glass vial on a shelf. When every vial has a level, you save the shelf as one image. There is no quiz logic underneath, no scoring key, and no results page. The shelf is the result.
What is the difference between rating something 0 and rating it 5?
A 0 is a refusal. The vial stays empty and gets a red cross, and it reads as a hard no to anyone looking at your shelf. A 5 is a yes with almost no enthusiasm, something you would never seek out but have not ruled out either. Keeping those apart is the point of the scale. A checklist that collapses both into an unchecked box loses the more useful half of the answer.
What should I do with an item I have never tried?
Rate the appetite, not the track record. The question is how much you want it or expect to like it, not whether you have done it. If you have no real reaction, a middle number is honest, and so is a low one, understood as unproven rather than refused. Keep 0 for things you are actively ruling out, since 0 prints as a red cross and everyone reads it as a limit.
How long does the Basics test take?
Ten to fifteen minutes at a normal pace. Thirty-five items, one slider each, no pages to click through and nothing to sign up for first. It is a browser page, so you can leave partway and come back, because ratings are written to local storage as you set them. If you find yourself agonizing over a single vial, put down your first instinct and adjust it before you export.
Do I need to take Basics before the BDSM, Sapphic, or MM tests?
No. The five tests are independent, and you can start with whichever one matches what you want to talk about. Basics is the sensible first shelf if you want a broad picture, or something to hand a new partner, because it uses plain vocabulary throughout. If you already know which territory interests you, go straight there. Nothing unlocks in sequence and no test depends on another.
Can I take the Basics test again and keep my old shelf?
You can retake it as often as you like. The saved state in your browser is your current shelf, so a retake replaces those numbers. Exported images are ordinary files, though, so save the old shelf before you start again if you want a before-and-after. Comparing two exports taken months apart is the closest thing here to a result, and it is your own data doing all the work.
Does the Basics test work on a phone?
It runs in the browser, so a phone works as well as a laptop. What benefits from the bigger screen is the shelf itself: thirty-five vials side by side are easier to scan when they are wider. The exported image comes out the same either way. Ratings live in the browser you used and do not sync, so a shelf started on your phone will not appear on your desktop.
What counts as light kink on the Basics test?
The end of the range that sits next to ordinary sex rather than needing a whole scene built around it. If you want restraint, impact, control, protocol, and aftercare treated properly, that is the BDSM shelf, which spends all thirty-five of its items there. Basics stops before the point where negotiation and roles become the main event, which is exactly what makes it usable as a general list.
