It is such a hyprocrisy that the government saids it is unlawful to deny someone employment based on sex, race, religion, creed, etc. However, on all these damn tests, they interrogate you to the fullest extent on any subject they please, including subjects on sex, race, religion, and creed, and they will damn well dismiss you based on certain admissions to these subjects. Sigh...

I believe that the question about bestiality is a form of "shock control" question meant to elicit a physiological response even from truthful subjects. The U.S. Secret Service reportedly asks such a question during its pre-employment polygraph interrogations. (See the statements of USSS applicants on the AntiPolygraph.org Personal Statements page)

Hi George,

I agree, if a question was asked about bestiality while hooked up to the magic spirit box-- but had not been discussed previously nor had it been clearly stated as a question one would be asked during the in-test phase-- it sure would be shocking to hear it.

Based on what I've read and my own experiences with those brave men and women of polygraphy, polygraphers who are interrogating about one's sexual history and proclivities will ask every conceivable sexual question there is, looking for various paraphilia in the examinee. Bestiality is certainly among the topics in which the polygraphers seem to delight in wallowing.

For a first-hand narrative of a CIA "lifestyle" polygraph interrogation, see the statement of No Such Author.

A job I am up for requires the applicant to get a Top Secret with Lifestyle Polygraph clearence. I was digging around on the internet trying to find out what would could flunk me when I found this great site. I Immediately downloaded the book and read it. I'm still deciding what path to take on the polygraph (honesty / deception) and was wondering if anybody has taken the lifestyle poly and could tell me some of relevant questions that they remember. I talked to different friends who had taken and passed this test when they were younger, and the one thing that they all remembered was a 'sex with animals' question. What is up with that?

Does anybody know of any good sites that discuss top secret background checks?
