How it works
READ FIRST OR JUST BEGINYou probably met the original rice purity test in a dorm room, passed around like contraband. It was fun, it was crude, and it was written for teenagers. The Modern Purity Index is that internet classic, rebuilt for adults with taste: 100 questions, six chapters of a grown-up life — romance, intimacy, adventure, party, mischief, and digital — and precisely zero judgment.
The mechanics are the same as the classic purity test: check every box that's true for you, and your score starts at 100 and descends with experience. But here, a low score isn't a scandal and a high score isn't a virtue. Both are just coordinates — a snapshot of where your story has been, not a verdict on where it's going.
Everything happens on your device. Your raw answers never leave it — only your final score is yours to share, compare, or quietly keep. For fun and self-discovery — not a diagnosis.
Questions, answered
FAQWhat is the Modern Purity Index?
It's a 100-question checklist in the tradition of the rice purity test, rewritten for adults. You check the experiences that are true for you across six groups — romance, intimacy, adventure, party, mischief, and digital — and receive a score from 0 to 100. Higher means fewer boxes checked; lower means more. Neither is better.
How is it different from the original rice purity test?
The original was written for students, and it reads like it. This version keeps the format — 100 items, one score — but swaps the juvenile and the graphic for questions an adult actually recognizes: the risky text, the holiday romance, the drawer that requires no apology. Suggestive where it counts, explicit nowhere.
Is my purity score private?
Yes. The test runs entirely in your browser and your individual answers never leave your device. Only the final score is computed locally, and sharing it — as a story card or a compare code — is always your explicit choice. There's no account, no email, no server copy of what you checked.
What does my score actually mean?
It's a conversation piece, not a character reference. A 92 and a 12 have both lived valid lives; the score simply maps how much of this particular list you've covered. Each result comes with a band — from The Blank Slate to The Open Book — written to describe, never to shame. It's for fun and self-discovery, not a diagnosis.
