Before anyone denounces me as a reactionary - The Greeks and Romans didn't have nearly as much wild sex as people in the 40s thought they did. The Romans were pretty priggish about sex. And the disease one is just objectively true in an era of international travel and, well, Covid. It doesn't have anything to do with racial or ethnic or whatever bullshit superstitious contagion. It's just germ theory. Finally, Idk why "People are born to jump from high places" is supposed to mean. I think something might have been lost in translation.
Either way, here's my score. I am the one true leftist.
Your Overall F Score is: 1.63
You are a whining rotter.
Scores for Personality Variables:
Conventionalism: 1.00
Authoritarian Submission: 1.00
Authoritarian Aggression: 1.00
Anti-intraception: 2.25
Superstition and Stereotypy: 1.33
Power and "Toughness": 1.00
Destructiveness and Cynicism: 3.00
Projectivity: 3.60
Sex: 2.33
I think the "familiarity breeds contempt" thing might be projection on the test writer's part. The phrase can be interpretted lots of ways but I always took it to mean that getting to know something or someone intimately breaks down the reverential view people often have of institutions and heroes. Often the results of tearing down that veil aren't pretty.
"Nowadays more and more people are prying in to matters that should remain private" idk what the fuck this meant in 1946 but I don't think the test author thought that people calling the police to examine other people's genitals in public restrooms was going to be a thing.
Also, on the sex crimes ones, I reject the entire notion of punishment categorically, which probably wasn't within the world-view of the author.

IDK, my experience with the burgerland "middle class" has made me feel contempt for it.
Totes. It can, and often should, be taken literally at face value. There are a lot of extremely ugly people and institutions in the world that hide behind a benign facade.
