I'm going to take the time to answer/respond to some comments given to the quiz so far. Again, thank you for all the responses and to those who have taken the time to take this quiz. Making it took a lot of work and I am glad it has given many of you some enjoyment to take.
"I have taken a break from radical feminist practices or beliefs" - i think this question is phrased weird. what does it mean to take a break from your beliefs? does it count as a break if i never thought of myself as a radical feminist in the first place? i feel this should be accounted for since this quiz is not radfem-only"
In this case answer false. Since you are not a radical feminist you have never taken a break from radical feminist beliefs.
how familiar is quiz author with the actual economics behind capitalism and marxism, and not just the immigration/imperialism focus
Where are there questions about immigration and imperialism? You may have misunderstood the questions. As for how familiar, I have an advanced degree and a background in a field necessitating mastery and understanding of this subject 😂
in the question "Men are the agents of women's oppression. All other forms of exploitation and oppression are extensions of male supremacy" it refers to ALL oppression and exploitation as in for example racism towards men or does it only refer to oppression of women? english isn’t my first language so maybe i’m just overthinking
This question is asking if all forms of exploitation and oppression including those against men, is an extension of male supremacy. You are not overthinking sister.
How were the points for these questions decided (i.e. is there some mathematical component to this or is it personal opinion only)? What literature and sources were used as a basis for this quiz?
I actually gave a more detailed answer to this in the notes of this post! The only portion of this quiz that was completely written by me is the praxis section.
It is not surprising to me that those who score much higher than they expected to are the only ones insulting me in the feedback section and in the tags. I don't have any emotional investment in that 😭. You can stop now.
You may be upset because you may be relying on what you identify as to get you into the range you desire. Now I say this If comprehending the questions was not the issue. If you do not believe in or disagree with the beliefs within that identity, that is why your score does not match up.
I cannot believe in your beliefs for you.
That being said, this quiz is meant to be light-hearted. It's not scientific and it is not all-encompassing. It culminates theory, essays, manifestos, articles, and hours upon hours of reading, organizing, codifying, and research. I created it last year as a way to showcase the different schools of thought. I'm touched and really excited to see women using the quiz as a way to expand their reading list or as a benchmark to show them things they want to look into or do more of. I'm excited to hear from those of you who want to use this quiz as a resource. I am open to question suggestions for the quiz, especially from those who feel as if the quiz wanted more when it came to their beliefs.
