What about someone who has a strong sex drive and fantasizes all the time but hasn't had any sexual encounters yet -- or for other reasons has decided to avoid them?
Doesn't make the chart incorrect, just means I'm an X on the Kinsey scale (which represents all the edge cases, asexual, no interest in sex, etc.)
The scale's not interested in measuring those things, or it would include them. It's ok for it to just measure people who fit the gender binary - that's 95%+ of people anyway and is a reasonable population to want to know about.
