I’ve definitely wondered if my specific brand of horny was actually “normal.” As it turns out, the concept of “normal” is basically an illusion. That is the main takeaway from the hookup app Feeld’s new “State of Reflections: Am I Normal?” report, which found that 42 percent of mainstream, non-Feeld daters actually practice kink.
Coinciding with the report, which “explores the gap” between what society labels as “normal” and what people really desire, Feeld launched an interactive quiz called Reflections to help you map out your own preferences. The tool was developed with researchers at the Bodies, Identities, Intimacies, and Technologies (BIIT) Lab at the University of Michigan, and you don’t need a Feeld account to do it.
But whether you’re single, coupled up, or in a messy situationship (Godspeed), trying to articulate your boundaries and desires to another person can be exhausting — especially if you’re on the apps. This feature is designed to make things a little less awkward.
