The Orbital Dynamics of Gender & Attraction

You are not a fixed point. You're a body in motion, held in orbit by several fields at once — identity, expression, body, desire. Each exerts its own gravitas, and they don't all pull the same way. This is a quiet place to feel where those forces actually take you.

Before you launch

Gender isn't one dial — it's a system of orbits, and they don't have to share a center. Over five short fields you'll feel out the gravity acting on you. Move slowly. Notice where you're actually pulled, not where you think you're supposed to sit.

  • Drag each slider to set the strength of a pull — or tab to it and use the arrow keys.
  • Every field has a short note and a link to deeper resources.
  • Your placements are saved only in this browser. Nothing here is a diagnosis.
  • Not sure yet? "Questioning" is a valid place to sit — you can leave any field unlabelled.

This explorer is a companion to the full Gender Quiz. Your anonymised placements may contribute to a long-term study of how people describe themselves over time — no name, no contact, no way back to you.

Educational use only — not a clinical assessment. Use of this tool does not create a therapist–client relationship, and Love Psychotherapy, LLC makes no recommendations regarding gender-affirming care.
