I got a 68%, and many the things I didn't answer yes to were kind of obvious to me as the things that make a rough day sometimes even rougher. Still not ready 3 years into the game, I guess.
For me, the coping with gross and icky things happens roughly as follows: something that seems gross at first becomes everyday, and therefore is no longer gross and then I can deal with it. Diapers for instance - having dealt with them every day for a while, I mostly just stopped thinking they were gross at all. But I'm still perfectly happy to stay arms-length away from other things I do consider gross. Plunging a toilet still involves gritting my teeth...
