Did the survey, don't know how it might help with your primary question though.

So all the previous votes are obsolete? That´s not very science like...

I did the survey... I think it's missing some key info though, like "what is the earliest age at which you remember attraction" and "at what age were you first exposed to hard core porn"
I feel like those influence sexual development much more than the number of brothers/sisters.
But I mean good effort here, I took the time to fill it out so there you go

They've tried to do a study on the effects of porn on men and their sexuality. Was in Britain I believe.
They had to cancel the study as they couldn't find anyone for the "Never watched porn" control group. Not one.

No. Prior votes are not obsolete. But whatever data I gather from the brother/sister questions is probably not very usable, unless I get a ton of additional answers. Either way, I'd need to just use any data from those surveys that were done after the questions were added to try to show anything related to the brother/sister equation. However, that's actually the first piece I'm working on as a starting blog post. So did want to get the question out there.
Please do not do the survey again. It will skew the results. I guess I should have thought more about adding these questions (which is why the survey site discourages it, I suppose).
Thanks for the comments. As per above, I won't be adding more questions for now. I think I might have learned my lesson....
That is too funny. However, I'm not approaching this issue from that direction. It's not a question of what effect porn has on sexuality: it's asking what effect sexuality has on porn. (Not really sexuality - it's more whether porn preferences might say something about why we have the sexuality we do. I know that's clear as mud, but read my posts (when I finally get them written and posted) and hopefully it will be clearer. (I may look like an idiot, but it'll be clear that I'm an idiot....)

And lastly, I said I'd post the most recent result when we hit 100 respondents. I checked tonight, and we are up to 100 respondents! [confetti, please].
Results are attached. Please ignore the rating column. The "rating" is an artifact of the kind of question I chose. Rather than make the answers "multiple choice", I made the answers "ratings" with values of 1-5. I thought that was just an easy way to keep track of it. Essentially, it takes major turn-off as value 1, turn-off as value 2, indifferent as value 3, turn-on as value 4, and major turn-on as value 5. Then it multiplies the number of each answer times the value, giving you the "rating". Then if you add up all the rating values and divide by the number of answers, you get an average, which should correspond to the most common answer. In fact, it doesn't even give you an exact average out to the tenths or hundredths place. (That might give you a tiny bit of additional information. Instead it rounds to the closest whole number. You can get that information just by looking at the number of answers and looking for the most common....
Anyway - I shouldn't complain. This is a good website and it's free unless you want analytics, so I should quit my bitching. Here are the updated results.

I have done the survey.

Done. I'm also looking forward for the results.
I favorited this thread to answer ir sometime ago, but ended up forgeting about it.
Only after posting this I saw that the results were up. Hahaha

After looking over the first 100 responses to the survey, I am not surprised by the results. A lot of us came from another site that banned certain tags and games. We came looking for a better site and found just that.

wtf is alpha vs omega, what a dumb question

Don't worry, we already know everything. Yes, even about Snuggles, the "comfort" sheep...

the doc talked with the whole staff before making the survey public (we even did the survey before it went public, yes, I work with sick people, and now I know how much)
you don't need email, name, real IP or any of that bullshit

Done. I would suggest clarifying some of the kinks. Is cheating meant to be others cheating with the mc, or the mc doing the cheating? I guessed the former. Also, some kinks aren't a turn off but I find plain boring, like voyeurism. I selected the neutral response, cause it's not a turn-off, but I try to avoid boring stuff all the same.

This is actually the basis of (one of) my main contentions. I think males are going to show a bimodal distribution of kinks rather than a continuous, single bell curve. And I think that's going to be along the lines of alpha vs omega. It may turn out to be a dumb question. I'm hoping it turns out to be an insightful one....
If I'd had more time, it would have been shorter.
But, seriously, I did try to make it short enough to be reasonable, but long enough to uncover interesting ideas. I can see how long people took to answer the survey, and most people took between 5 and 15 minutes. There are a few that took between 15-20, one person took 24 minutes, and one person took 59 minutes (afk?). So overall I'd say that's a pretty reasonable amount of time for a fairly in-depth survey.
I did make every effort to make sure it was clearly anonymous and made sure I was using a reputable survey provider. As Guz notes, the survey doesn't collect any personal information at all (no email, etc.) It apparently doesn't even require a real IP address (though how Guz tested for that, I've no idea). However, you can do the survey through a VPN if you wanted to.
Thanks! And this is the right approach for "boring". I also agree that some of these are not clear, including "cheating". If I revise the survey and use it elsewhere, I'll try to clarify those. Cheating and humiliation are the two that seem like they most clearly need clarifying.

probably me, sorry, I'm always multitasking, and I remember spending some minutes talking with the staff about the "money or glory" question
