About This Quiz

The human mind is capable of some amazing things, not the least of which is its ability to retain knowledge. You can literally spend your whole life learning and, unlike even the most advanced computer in existence, you will never run out of space. You can consume knowledge and experience new things each and every day and keep building up what you know into bigger and better things. Your smarts never have to get stagnant if you don't want them to. That's as true for math smarts as it is for sex smarts. It's all in how you go about learning and experiencing new things. 

As with any kind of knowledge, your sex smarts depend on how much time you spend studying. No one is born into this kind of knowledge; you have to work at it. And work hard. You have to be dedicated to wanting to experience and know more than just the basics. Even animals know the fundamentals, after all. You need to prove yourself by going a little bit above and beyond. That is, if you expect to actually have any sex smarts to speak of. So the question now is: Do you? Take the quiz and see!
