Without further ado, the DI and FI.
DI — 20 point scale, including decimals. -10, in this case, is an ugly, barely sentient female, whereas 10 is a goddess. 0 is the bare minimum of datability.
1. How much plastic surgery has the subject undergone? +1 for “none” or “reconstructive”, -.1 for each operation that is non-reconstructive to a max of -1.
2. Could you have a conversation with her for more than an hour on any given topic? This requires ACTIVE participation, not merely staring at her breasts. +.5 for yes, -.5 for no.
3. Would you bring her home to mom (and expect a positive response)? +1.5 for yes, -1 for no, +.5 for “my mom is too picky.”
4. Is she destitute or wealthy (relative to you)? -.5 for destitute, +.5 for wealthy
5. Could you see yourself having children with her (consider both the physical possibility and mental picture of her fitness for motherhood)? +1 for yes, -1 for no.
6. Does she use illegal drugs? +1.5 for no, -1.5 for yes.
7. Are you at opposite ends of the religious spectrum? Political spectrum (I mean “opposite” here, not just “minor disagreements” here. Like an atheist and a member of the Taliban or a Communist and a monarchist. No room for compromise. One hundred eighty degrees of difference, people.) -2 for yes to both, -1 for one or the other, +1 for no to both.
8. Are you of the same ethnicity? +1 for yes, -1 for no.
9. Would you leave her alone with small children? +2 for yes, -2 for no.
10. Does she have any disgusting habits (including anorexia or bulimia): -.5 for yes, +0 for no.
11. What is the percentage chance she will be convicted of a felony? Please convert to decimals. Subtract this from the total.
And there you have it. That’s the DI. I argue that there will be no major difference between males on the great majority of women in question. Honestly, I anticipate the most controversial question will be no. 1, due to disagreements over breast implants. No. 10 is a bit subjective as well, but it’s there primarily to ensure that a -10 is possible. It’s little more than rounding error. I am assuming she is of sound mental and physical health, as well.
Now, the FI. This is my PERSONAL FI. Not only do I expect yours to be different, I’d be positively shocked if there wasn’t a wide discrepancy in certain cases. Once again, same scale.
1. Is the subject bisexual? +0 for no, +.5 for hasn’t tried it, but is willing to, +1 for yes.
2. How large are the subject’s breasts? -.5 for A, +0 for B, +1 for C, +2 for D, -1 for F and above.
3. Has the subject cheated in the past? -5 for yes, +0 for no.
4. Does the subject smoke? Automatic failure if yes, +0 for no.
5. If the subject is a hippy, communist, or religious fundamentalist, automatic failure. If the subject is a moderate in religion and politics, +0. If the subject is a conversvative atheist, +1.
6. Compare the size of subject’s ass to the size of subject’s breasts. If ass is bigger, -.5. If ass is completely flat, -1. All other responses, +1.
7. Divide the subject’s perceived age by your own. If it is 1 (+/-.25), + 1. Greater than 1.25 or less than .75, automatic failure.
8. Is the subject a virgin? +2 if yes, +0 if no.
9. If hair is neck length or less, automatic failure. Between neck and shoulders, +0. Shoulders to small of the back, +2, small of the back to ass, +1, beyond ass, -1, floor, automatic failure.
10. If the subject is African-American, automatic failure. If the subject is a foreigner (defined as non-American citizen; U-S-A! U-S-A!), -2.5. If the subject was born in America, +1. (U-S-A! U-S-A!)
11. If the subject has predominantly grey hair, automatic failure. For a natural brunette to black-haired subject, +.5. Any other color, +0.
12. If the subject has fewer than two functioning eyes, automatic failure. For naturally blue, green or hazel eyes, +.5. All others, +0.
As you can see, a 10 is much harder to get on the FI than on the DI. However, it is also easier to get a positive response on the FI than on the DI.
[...] Ranking Time’s Person of the Year on Tony’s FI index gives a value of -1 (though technically it failed on the age portion), so even Tony would not, uh, become intimate with it. [...]

I should note here that my girlfriend ranks very highly on both the DI AND the FI, a singularly difficult feat. Suck on that, everyone else!

Yeah, and you know what? I’d rank a 7.5 on your DI and I believe I would even get a positive score on your FI.
Which, frankly, creeps me out. Seriously.

Except you aren’t female, which is clearly stated in the intro. Sorry, Kevin, I’m already taken!
