Rice Purity Test question 36 of 100 · Sexual experience

“Purchased contraceptives?”

The purchase is the event. Buying condoms or pills once ticks the box whether or not they were ever used, and a packet somebody handed you leaves it empty. It is not one of the explicit items, and it can be true before anything else in this block is. Item 36 of 100, and the 2nd of the 9 questions in the partnered-sex run that stops just short of intercourse (35–43). It is one of 60 sexual experience items, and it is worth one point: tick this box and nothing else and the score reads 99.

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 “Purchased contraceptives” means

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.
