About Sensuality
Sensuality is an acute awareness of what the senses perceive. This preoccupation or devotion to that which is smelled, felt, touched, heard, tasted, and seen has some bearing on how one experiences life. Studies have shown that people who are exceptionally sensual live for the moment and are not hung up on the future or the past. What is presently going on is enough to captures the sensual individual's full attention. This is an excellent recipe for happiness. Sensual people enjoy experience itself, basking in actual acts rather than rushing through them to get at some possible or imaginary end. In sum, sensual persons take advantage of what life has to offer, living everyday as if it were their last.

What does your score mean?
You seem to have found a balance between absolute asceticism and utter hedonism. You are able to appreciate and even lose yourself in the sights, smells, sounds, tastes, and feel of life. Nonetheless, you aren't totally pleasure-driven and you are able to keep your emotions balanced. You are able to stay focused and to persevere, even though you might be trudging through a particularly dull or insipid period of life. If you would like, you can intensify your sensual side by using your eyes, ears, nose, and fingertips to explore all of the stimuli that whirl around you at any given time. Walk through the park smelling the mown grass, absorbing the vast blueness of the sky, hearing the laughter of children, and the sound of your breath. You only have one life so just make sure that you are not missing out on some sensual pleasures of the moment.

My results were fairly accurate, though paint me as potentially overly indulgent. I enjoyed what it said about being emotionally sensual because this is something I identify with fairly strongly. I scored 88.
"You are one sensual human being! Yours is a hedonistic attitude, and you deeply enjoy the sensual pleasures that life has to offer. Your senses are also inextricably linked to your emotions and certain sensual stimuli can evoke strong feelings. Therefore you tend to be emotionally passionate. Because you get so much pleasure from your senses, you are eager to experiment in life. This is positive since you can make great discoveries and experience a lot of pleasure. It is important, however, to keep yourself in check since people who delight is sensual pleasures are at a slightly increased risk for addictions (substance, sex, love, etc.). All in all, you have the innate ability to use your senses to enjoy what this life has to offer!"
63, and I think it was better than expected. For certain things I have always thought of me as a stone:
