Some of you (OK so like... three of you) may remember the last time I ran a survey on political values; I was really happy with the responses everybody gave me at TheMotte, and now a few other people I know who post on Substack are wanting to use the results to answer some questions of their own. So long story short, here's another poll:
Don't worry if you think you're unusual and might skew the results - in fact we'd very much appreciate your perspective, whatever it is.
Thanks guys!

Yeah, it's more explicit on her site. The taboo survey had many fewer responses (around 1300 to the around 30,000 of the kink survey as of Aug 2023) and looks like it was collected more heavily from Aella's readership until later in the process (where she started to sell through Positly). She assumes that a lot of the taboo stuff will converge quickly with fewer data points because it's such a social thing, and that's probably not wrong, and keeping the surveys separate probably does help avoid lower kinks scores because of people feeling shamed about kinks.
Right, then my assumption makes sense, it's explicitly formulated as "what would people think". Someone's interest in sexualized oviposition probably weirds out just as many people as their interest in sex with other species of mammals, but it creeps them out less, since it's clearly an imaginary act.
