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.

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
When I was young, my mind was super visual. People would talk, and there would be a stream of pictures and videos in my mind. Then I got really into reading and writing and, over the years, my mine got much less visual. I still can visualize things, but it's not the way my mind really works. It's closer to an audio book, but isn't really sound, either.
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.
I'm a 1 but the apple would be morphing into different types and then the image would zoom in on patterns or what the bottom looks like etc. It would then shift to something totally unrelated like Sonic the Hedgehog. Why him? Your guess is as good as mine. There's a lot going on up there and it's noisy and constantly under construction.
To your question though, of course I don't watch them, I skip around to the good parts.
Not so much these days. I have a lot of neglected home projects that I need to get done. Can't imagine how 3 and 4s are handling things these days.
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.
1 or 2 I guess? Also what’s wrong with watching adult videos?
They are assuming you can visualize what ever you want and don’t need the videos
Oh then i can… I still watch videos cause I want to be done with it; otherwise I read smut
At a 2, I have but don't regularly.
1, I do. The imagination isn’t a perfect replacement for everything, and I find visualising things far harder to do if I’m actively forcing myself to do it (listening to music or just letting my mind wander is far better for me, so this test is pretty difficult for me since I have to force myself to focus on the apple).
Yes. Just because I can imagine a book brought to life doesn't mean I don't like watching movies.
