Find out how good someone is in bed
This site can tell you what someone is like in bed, by
you telling it what they are like out of it.

"Using sophisticated neural network processing, HowGoodInBed.com is able to determine which are the most relevant factors in determining a person's likely performance in bed and analyse your responses accordingly."

If the looming threat of death is making you amorous, you should at least know what (or who) you're getting into.

"It's the quiet ones that are wild in bed".

Hear anything round here?

Much like I did with the sitcom-character-or-dictator test, I took it with myself in mind to see what it'd spit out. A disappointing 3-out-of-5 Christmas balls. In response I'd just like to say, I don't hear anybody complainin'!

I am quiet, and yes, I am wild in bed.

Oh, you mean having sex...

I tried it on myself - 3 out of five and I only do it in the bedroom!!

Like I deserve a 3 out of 5 for wanting a bit of comfort

just another attempt at gathering demographic info. i'd like to see how they truly determine their results.

I don't know what the value of the "demographic info" they're getting is, considering that they don't ask for any identifying details. It's just vague questions about how chatty the person is and what they look like. They don't even ask for your e-mail address like the ubiquitous robot quiz. And since you're supposed to fill it out with *someone else* in mind... they can't even assume who's filling it out. Pretty pointless demographics, if you ask me. It's more like those "Let me guess if you're male/female or gay/straight" quizzes...

Unfortunately one can only be good in bed viz a viz someone else. It's a one-at-a-time thing, see. (Cagney accent required). In fact one cannot be good in bed. Two can be good in bed*, with and to each other.
This is a great blessing for those stupid enough to think they're bad or good in bed.
Even a really tuned-in couple can be good some times; bad some times.

That's why it's so exciting. Besides, technique is a real turn-off and Masters and Johnson ruined a lot of perfectly good sex lives.

* It would be chic to say "or three or four" but I wouldn't know; wouldn't care to, either. One person, if you desire him or her, is deliciously too much, anyway!

Has anyone gotten anything other than 3 out of 5?

People, wake up. The only way to determine if someone is good in bed is to try them out. So get out there and try some people out, dammit! MOVE IT! MOOOOOOOOOVE IT!!

I got a four. But then, I have had a lot of practice...
wink wink!

I hardly need to waste my time on this test. Every woman I've ever slept with has gone straight into orbit. It's just this intuition I get right before I doze off.

Putting in my own info, I got a 3/5, if I'm sleeping with a woman.

With a man, I'm only 1/5.

Time to start questioning my sexuality...

Oh hohoho...one out of five, for me. Evidently, I'm not tall enough, athletic enough, and gosh darnit, people don't like me.

Whoa! I put in an ex and she got 5/5!

... Too bad I only had that one month... Too bad it's wrong, too.

What is the score based on? One two five... water balloons? I can't tell what those are.

They looked like those Christmas ornament "balls" to me. Maybe I'm just getting caught up in the festive winter holiday spirit.

they are, web-goddess. seriously, what's with the christmas baubles? and why is it that no matter what I put in there, I get three out of five, uh... christmas baubles?

this test is a major stinker (no offense to those of you who scored fives). i'm a tall & pale chatter box; he's a short-haired & active smarty-pants —> yet we both scored threes. we might not be swinging from the ceiling fan and knocking our neighbors' paintings off of the wall six nights a week, he still keeps my toes well-curled.

then again, i guess the purpose of the test is to find out how good a stranger is in bed, not your beloved ('cause you shouldn't need WWW to know you're XXX). still, i think the best way to rate someone's bed-worthiness is body language.

and alcohol intake. or maybe that's just college...

Funny that is says the most willing girls to go at it at anytime are the fat, pale ones that are couch potatoes and don't like walking. That. Is. Gross.

Yeah, arielmeadow, I got a '2'. (cue laughtrack)

God, I suck in bed. Other places, too.

web-godess: They don't even ask for your e-mail address

I'm not sure which of my two addresses is the most attractive to women. My university address is spotty and wears glasses so I guess it'd be the other one.
