  1. What do you mean by adult video? Like, porn?

3 or 4, but I can 'see' the geometry and motion of one or more objects interacting with each other or the environment. Rotation, deformation, shear, impact etc.

It is less so that I can 'see' and more that I can 'feel' and visually conceptualize that sensation in my mind. Albeit not 'vividly'.

That might lend itself to other things

yes because most of the time, it feels better to be able to turn my brain off.

But I am able to use stuff like AI Dungeon as an alternative if I need it.

Up to 1 with effort. My fiancee is a 5, which if I hadn't already known beforehand that that's even possible, I would have been surprised to learn.

Uhm, not sure where I lie on this scale I guess. Is this the real scale or some abstract representation? Personally it's a 1 or 2 for me, but the image constantly changes and is never quite stable. There can be quite some detail, but it's only very temporary. Once I focus on some other part of the apple and go back everything is different

At a 2, I have but don't regularly.

I'm a 1 and yes. That part of my brain has a direct line to the input somehow, and can't be fooled by a mere mind-picture.

I'm interested in how women would answer, because men seem to be way more sexually visual, and women more conceptual, even across orientations.

The term you are looking for is aphantasia.

[–] CanadaPlus@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 1 year ago

Only for a 5.

[–] nitefox@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

1 or 2 I guess? Also what’s wrong with watching adult videos?

[–] Beeps@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They are assuming you can visualize what ever you want and don’t need the videos
