The Kinsey Scale was developed by Dr. Alfred Kinsey while he was researching human sexuality. This chart had a rating of how "heterosexual" or "homosexual" you are, and if you're in the middle, it would say you're "equally homosexual and heterosexual" instead of using the term bisexual. For more information on the Kinsey Scale, please read here: Kinsey Institute
If you're interested in taking the Kinsey Scale test, here are a few a found:
Note: None of those tests are official, there was never an official Kinsey Scale test created. I found a decent one YEARS ago --- it was more neutral with the language, these other ones are...worded a bit differently.
Fritz Klein later expands on the Kinsey Scale and came up with the Klein Sexual Orientation Grid{KSOG}. He even wrote a book about bisexuality called The Bisexual Options. I have not read it yet, so I wouldn't know if it's good or not. Some woke people consider it "queer" and other woke people are mad that it talks about "two genders" and not "ALL genders"---saying the book is "too outdated". So I don't know.
