Rice Purity Test question 22 of 100 · Sexual experience · 18+
“Seen or read pornographic material?”
Pornography seen or read, once, sought out or stumbled into. “Read” is the word that dates the sheet: written erotica was the form most easily got hold of when the list was first typed up, and the line has never been rewritten. Nothing on this list is weighted. Question 22 sits 11th among the 23 questions of the long stretch from first sexual contact to the online items, one of 60 sexual experience items, and like every other line on the sheet it moves a score by exactly one point.
Checking it costs one point, and how often other people tick it appears here once 30 of them have opted in to share their answers.
What “Seen or read pornographic material” means
This is one of the 65 explicit items the full sheet carries, which is why the classic test is written for readers 18 and over. The teen version leaves questions like this one out entirely.
What it is worth, test by test
Each questionnaire divides 100 points across its own question set, so the same idea is worth different amounts depending on which test you took.

No other questionnaire on this site asks anything close enough to call a match, which is one reason scores from two different tests cannot be compared to each other.
Where it sits on the sheet
The classic list is not one straight escalation: it opens with romance, works through sexual experience to question 43, breaks off for drink, school and the police, then comes back at 67 for thirty-four variations on intercourse. Inside each of those runs the neighbouring questions are the best guide to what this one is being measured against.
