Straight people might seem a bit odd, but the truth is they’re not so different from the rest of us! (Sometimes.) They have friends, they have hobbies, they date, they have jobs. Believe it or not, we might just have more in common than we think!
Well, have you ever wondered which straight person best describes you? Now you can find out! Take this quiz to find out which straight person is most like you.

Fantastic premise. I am a Dolores. Yes to grandma vibes.
I’m Brian and I actually look really kind and handsome and apparently love cinema, so I am very pleased.
My wife and I each got Jim. Which seems about right for us.
Candace, baby!
I also got Brian, who seems really nice. But I didn’t pick any of the movie answers, other than the one required one, so I’m a bit confused :)
Ooo interesting you must’ve picked all the ones that were about Brian’s other qualities. lol
What other movie is Al Pacino in besides dog day afternoon where he helps a trans woman?! Google is not helping me here, so hoping Autostraddle will ◡̈
And Justice for All!
I watched it last week and had no idea. (A warning that it’s a really brutal subplot. Not offensive for the time per se, but just very tragic in that plot device way where cruelty experienced by a queer person helps a straight person learn a lesson.)
i got liam which is exciting cuz that’s been one of the top two names for baby boys in the US for quite some time now, so i am now part of a massive community of liams, all of whom could be other straight men, and i’m sure i have something in common with some of them. hopefully i will be the funniest liam. when i take my show on the road don’t worry i will have a woman or non-binary person open for me.
two of the dogs kind of looked like penny…. but none of the dogs looked like carol? weird for me. or i guess, weird for liam
Veronica! iTs true i love hosting a big gathering
Veronica. Lol.
what are the odds that i got the straight cis person who is my deadname
LOL. I’m Jim. “You love your wife and so does Jim. Your wife is your best friend, your soulmate, the sun that everything else revolves around. Jim gets it. You get it. Wife guys until the end.” Yep. That’s me. My wife is my everything.
Somehow I am Leila…who is not at all my personality! But you know what? If I’d persisted in thinking I was straight and cis I might have been Leila because for some *weird* reason I only felt comfortable pretending to be someone else? and probably would have ended up a theatre straight. And I think we can all agree that 50% of theatre straights are just deeply repressed queers of one stripe or another
I got Dolores! So accurate. I love staying at home and being cozy.
I got Jim. Meh. I was really hoping for a hippie Mom type. Because I basically am a hippie Mom type but bisexual.
