Sexual Repression Index (SRI) Quiz
Anonymous sexual well-being quiz measuring guilt, shame, inhibition, and arousal response.
Tagline
Private sexual shame score, on your device
The most private way to measure sexual shame
A science-backed sexual self-assessment, not a quiz
Quick baseline or deep read on your own terms
The most private way to measure sexual shame, guilt, and inhibition without talking to anyone.
Privacy is the sharpest differentiator here: local-device processing, anonymity, and deletion/export controls directly answer the sensitivity of the topic.
A science-backed alternative to vague sex advice and personality quizzes.
The page repeatedly names validated psychometric scales and a clinical reviewer, which supports positioning against fluffy self-help content and internet quizzes.
A two-speed assessment for people who want either a quick baseline or a deeper psychometric read.
The product explicitly offers both quick and full assessments, which is useful positioning for users who are curious but not ready to commit to a long test.
Primary user
Adults privately exploring sexual shame, guilt, or inhibition through a self-guided psychological assessment
ICP #1
Adult individual dealing with sexual shame after conservative religious upbringing
Pain
They feel stuck between desire and guilt, but they do not want to talk openly about it in a clinic or with friends.
Why this solves
The quiz lets them privately quantify shame, guilt, and inhibition using named psychometric scales instead of guessing or self-diagnosing from random internet content.
ICP #2
Therapy-curious millennial or Gen Z user hesitant to book a sex therapy session
Pain
They want to understand whether their lack of desire, avoidance, or anxiety is psychological before paying for professional help.
Why this solves
The quick assessment gives an immediate, anonymous baseline across multiple dimensions, making the first step feel lower risk than an appointment.
ICP #3
Sex educator or clinical psychologist working with clients on intimacy and sexual self-concept
Pain
They need a structured, research-based screening tool instead of vague conversation starters.
Why this solves
The product is built on recognized scales like SIS/SES, Mosher Guilt Inventory, KISS-9, and BSAS, giving them a defensible framework for discussion.
Strengths
- +Very strong privacy promise with specific local-only processing language, which is essential for this topic.
- +Credibility is supported by named psychometric instruments and a clinician review badge.
- +The quick vs full assessment split is practical and clearly communicated.
Weaknesses
- −The homepage is overloaded with academic framing and scale names, which will intimidate non-clinical users.
- −The term "Sexual Repression Index" is provocative but underexplained; it risks sounding judgmental or pseudo-medical without a clearer benefit statement.
- −There is no visible sample result, progress preview, or explanation of what users actually get at the end.
- −The page lacks emotional empathy; it explains methodology better than it reassures embarrassed users.
- −The conversion path is generic: multiple repeated CTAs, but little narrative progression from curiosity to trust to action.
Fix these
- Add a plain-language hero subheadline explaining the outcome, such as what users learn about guilt, shame, inhibition, and desire.
- Show an example result dashboard or score breakdown so users understand the value before starting.
- Replace some scale jargon above the fold with benefit-led language, while keeping the clinical references lower on the page.
- Add trust-building microcopy around anonymity, especially clarifying that nothing is uploaded and no account is required.
- Create audience-specific entry points for 'I feel guilty about sex,' 'I avoid intimacy,' and 'I want a private baseline before therapy.'

FAQ
Is this a diagnosis?
No. It is a private self-assessment meant to help you understand patterns like guilt, shame, inhibition, and arousal response.
Do you store my answers?
No. The quiz is processed locally on your device, and nothing is uploaded to a server.
Who is this for?
Adults exploring sexual shame or inhibition, therapy-curious users wanting a baseline, and clinicians or educators looking for a structured reference tool.
Why are there two versions?
The quick assessment gives a fast snapshot. The full assessment goes deeper if you want a more detailed psychometric read.
Is the content appropriate for younger users?
Yes, the assessment includes special protection and adapted handling for ages 14–17, with culturally sensitive logic for experience level.
I built a private Sexual Repression Index quiz. It measures guilt, shame, inhibition, and arousal response using validated scales. No account. No upload. Results stay on your device. If you’ve ever wondered “is this me or my conditioning?” this is for you.
This one isn’t. Sexual Repression Index uses real psychometric scales to estimate sexual inhibition, excitation, guilt, and shame. There’s a quick version for a fast baseline and a full version for deeper analysis. Private by design.
I wanted a tool for the people who are too embarrassed to ask anyone about sexual shame. So I shipped a local-only assessment with adaptive logic, anonymous results, and delete/export controls. The hard part wasn’t coding. It was making it feel safe.
For normal products, privacy is nice. For sex-related self-assessment, privacy is the product. That’s why this quiz processes everything on-device and never uploads answers. Trust is the feature.
You’re not broken. You might just need a clearer read on shame, inhibition, and arousal response. I made a private quiz that turns that fog into a score breakdown you can actually look at. No therapist required to start.
Not financially. Emotionally. A lot of people carry sexual avoidance for years because they have no clean way to name it. This quiz gives you a private baseline before you pay for therapy or keep guessing.
Your result is a breakdown, not a vague label. You see where shame, guilt, inhibition, and excitation sit relative to each other. Quick version: 8–15 minutes. Full version: 25–40 minutes. Same privacy either way.
It adapts based on age and sexual experience, so it doesn’t ask dumb questions. That matters if you’re 14–17, inexperienced, or just don’t fit the default internet quiz mold. The goal is a usable self-assessment, not a dopamine toy.
I don’t want fluff around a sensitive topic. So the quiz was reviewed by a PhD clinical psychologist specializing in human sexuality. It uses named scales like SIS/SES-SF, Mosher Guilt Inventory, KISS-9, SOS, and BSAS.
The strongest early feedback has been simple: “Finally something I can do without telling anyone.” That’s the point. A private self-assessment for sexual well-being, with local processing and no account wall.
Angle: privacy-first self-assessment
I shipped a product for one of the most private topics people deal with: sexual shame, guilt, and inhibition. Most tools in this space fail for the same reason: they ask for trust before they earn it. So I built Sexual Repression Index as a local-only self-assessment. No account. No server upload. No history unless the user keeps it. The point is simple: if someone is embarrassed, unsure, or therapy-curious, they should be able to get a baseline without handing over their identity. That changes the behavior. People will take the first step when it feels safe. I’m curious what you think matters more in sensitive products: credibility, privacy, or clarity?
Angle: science-backed alternative
There’s a lot of terrible advice online about sex, desire, and shame. And there are also a lot of “quizzes” that are really just entertainment. I wanted something in between: a structured, private self-assessment built from recognized psychometric scales. It measures things like sexual inhibition, excitation, guilt, and shame. It also adapts based on age and sexual experience so the experience is less awkward and more relevant. For some users, that’s enough to get clarity. For others, it becomes a better starting point for a conversation with a therapist or clinician. The lesson for me: sensitive products need more than features. They need restraint, language that doesn’t judge, and a reason to trust the result.
Angle: product design for embarrassment
I think one of the hardest UX problems is designing for embarrassment. Not friction. Embarrassment. When a topic is shame-sensitive, users do not want big promises, long explanations, or visible complexity. They want to know three things immediately: - Is this private? - Will I understand the result? - Is this going to judge me? That shaped how I built Sexual Repression Index. Quick version or full version. Clear result breakdown. Local processing only. No account. The interesting part is that the product is not just the quiz. It’s the feeling of safety around the quiz. That’s the real conversion layer.

Private sexual shame quiz on your device
Description
A local-only self-assessment for sexual guilt, shame, inhibition, and arousal response. Choose a quick baseline or a deeper psychometric read. No account, no upload, no one sees your answers.
Maker's first comment
I built this because sensitive topics get ruined by two things: bad advice and bad privacy. A lot of people feel stuck between desire and guilt, but they do not want to explain that to a stranger, a friend, or even a therapist on day one. So I made a private assessment that stays on your device, uses recognized psychometric scales, and gives you a clearer baseline without handing over your identity. The quick version is for people who want a fast snapshot. The full version is for people who want something more detailed and are willing to spend more time. I’m shipping this in public because I think the real question is not whether people are curious. They are. The question is whether the product feels safe enough to start.
Pinned maker comment
Would love feedback on the wording, trust cues, and whether the result screen makes the value obvious fast enough.

Cold outreach template
Hey {firstName} — I built a private sexual well-being quiz for people who want a baseline on guilt, shame, and inhibition without talking to anyone first. If you have 2 minutes, I’d love your take on whether the wording feels respectful and clinically sane. I can send the link and a preview of the result screen.
Product Hunt timing
Launch Tuesday or Wednesday morning UTC after you have at least 20 real comments/feedback points from testers, because sensitive products need early trust signals and fast iteration on wording.
