    • That one was v tricky! It could have described so many seemingly duplicitous but actually wonderful & heroic female bisexual Severus Snapes (which should be a category of person now, thank you).

  1. I got a 70%. I am actually really proud of myself and my ability to read context cues, because I have only watched Orphan Black and Supergirl.

  2. 80%! Not bad considering I didn’t get to watch TV when I was a kid. The benefits of being a Autostraddle reader obviously. :D

  3. 85!

    I missed the soap one cause I don’t know about soaps and another one I forgot and then I mixed up piper and Alex cause I erased that show from my memory after they killed Poussey ?

  4. Good job!
    Quiz Grade: D
    Score: 12
    Percentage: 60%

    Some of the ones that I missed, I really shouldn’t have missed.

  5. Good job!
    Quiz Grade: D
    Score: 12
    Percentage: 60%

    Pretty damn pleased with myself considering that I guessed on most of them – I knew 2 or 3 for sure. But I absolutely got the LA Law one – that story line made a big impression on baby-bi me watching LA Law in my dorm tv lounge.

  6. Lol I got a C (70%). But it was very enjoyable (and informative, and occasionally salty), so I’m still happy!

  7. My score was:
    Quiz Grade: D
    Score: 13
    Percentage: 65%

    I gotta say as someone who hasn’t seen very many of the shows listed I didn’t do that bad.

  8. I got an 85/B which might have set my perfectionist brain ablaze except it’s obviously B for Bisexual soooo it’s all good!

    Also I should have remembered that the QAF Mel/Lindsay/Brian triangle was never consumated on screen

  9. I got a D grade.

    Also, I was once challenged by a lesbian at an LGBT networking event for not being queer enough (I know). We were both drunk so I allowed her to subject me to a verbal quiz (I know). I half-jokingly passed all her tests.

    Her last question was “favourite L Word character?”

    Now, I’ve never watched the L Word, but I knew from the grapevine that Alice was the bisexual character, so I trotted out “Alice, of course.”

    She gave me a weird look, but I still left the conversation pleased with myself for proving my gayness.

    And now honestly I feel betrayed by Alice.

    And still pissed off at that lesbian.

    Great quiz though!

  10. Wow. I definitely don’t watch as much TV as you AS folks do. The only ones I really knew about were Rosa from B99 and even though I watched ALL OF TRUE BLOOD (god help me) I couldn’t remember some of the characters so I got that one wrong.

  11. i got 1 wrong, because i don’t know anything about soap operas #crushedit

    the alex question is my favorite though for sure. i’m glad that even the overwhelmingly hetero people who write most tv shows recognize that alex is a gay name

  12. I got an E … Good excuse to watch more TV, I need to know more bi characters obviously.

    But I have to say I got confused by question 14 because the love triangle in You, Me, Her is between Emma/Izzy/Jack, not Greg ! Greg is the name of the actor playing Jack

  13. i always took what Alice said as a joke? like i always make ironic biphobic jokes cuz im allowed, so i thought she was too?
