What “Had sexual intercourse more than 10 times with one person?” means

Adult and sensitive content

The full checklist is intended for adults aged 18 and over and includes explicit topics. You may leave any item unchecked, exit the test, or delete saved checks. An unchecked item is scored the same whether the experience did not occur or you preferred not to answer.

What the question is asking

Item 44 asks whether you have had intercourse more than ten times with a single person. It is the last counting item in the intercourse run and the only one that measures depth with one partner rather than breadth across several.

Where people disagree about what counts

The wording is "more than 10", which is eleven or more, where item 24 says "10 or more". That one-word difference between two similar items is easy to miss and is a genuine inconsistency in the checklist.

The test is self-scored and nobody else ever sees your answer, so the only thing that matters is applying one reading consistently across the whole checklist.

How item 44 fits with the items around it

Item 44 completes the counting set that runs 23, 24, 37, 39, 40 and 44. Placed against items 39 and 40, it is the only counting item that points at a single relationship, which makes it the closest thing on the checklist to a marker of a long-term partnership.

Item 43, before this one Had sexual intercourse while roommate was in the room? Item 45, after this one Had sexual intercourse with someone you didn't know their name?

How it affects the score

Every question has the same one-point effect. Checking item 44 subtracts one point from the starting score of 100. Leaving it unchecked subtracts nothing, and no item on the checklist is weighted more heavily than any other.

Final score = 100 − total checked boxes

The final number never identifies this answer or any other individual answer — it is a count, so it discards which items were selected the moment it is calculated. Read the full scoring guide or look up an exact result on the 0–100 score chart.

Questions about item 44

How is item 44 different from item 24?

Item 24 is ten or more times in your life across all partners. Item 44 is more than ten times with one specific person.

Does "more than 10" mean eleven?

Literally, yes. Item 24 says "10 or more" while item 44 says "more than 10", which is an inconsistency in the checklist's own wording.

Do most people who check item 44 also check item 24?

Yes, necessarily. Eleven times with one person is also eleven times in total, so item 24 is satisfied automatically.
