Our Approach to the Test

The Rice Purity Test has existed for 100 years. In that time it has been used as a bonding tool, a self-reflection exercise, a TikTok trend, and occasionally a source of unnecessary judgment. We think the first two uses are valuable. The last one is not what the test was designed for.

Our content — the 20+ guides, score explanations, and resource pages on this site — consistently emphasizes the same principle: no score is good or bad. A score of 90 and a score of 30 both simply reflect how many of 100 listed experiences have applied to a person’s life. The test captures a count. It captures nothing about character, morality, or worth.

That framing is not diplomatic. It is accurate. And it is the honest foundation of everything we publish here.

The History Behind the Test

The Rice Purity Test was first published in 1924 by the Rice Thresher, the student newspaper of Rice University in Houston, Texas. The first version had 10 questions and was given only to female students.

The test expanded to 100 questions in the 1980s and became a standard O-Week (Orientation Week) bonding activity at Rice University. It migrated online in the late 1990s and went globally viral on TikTok in 2020. The version most people encounter today was standardized at ricepuritytest.com in 2012.
