Rice Purity Test question 97 of 100 · Sexual experience · 18+

“Paid or been paid for a sexual act?”

Money or goods exchanged for a sexual act, in either direction. It is one of the few items in this block that can carry legal weight depending on where you were at the time. Nothing on this list is weighted. Question 97 sits 31st among the 34 questions of the intercourse block that closes the list, 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 “Paid or been paid for a sexual act” means

Some of these describe things that are done to people rather than chosen by them. If that is why you are here, RAINN runs a free, confidential line in the US, and Find a Helpline lists services by country. This site stores nothing about you either way — what it does store.

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.
