"How long are your guts?" is pretty raunchy if you're using the back door. Doubting your physical compatibility is a level of brag that inspires fantasy smut.

OOPs initial instinct was correct. You're supposed to answer truthfully based on your actual observed experiences, not answer questions about others' assessments your behavior with your own internal assessment of that behavior. Overthinking surveys can skew answers inappropriately.

Afaik, English grammar requires utterances with predicates to have a stressed element in those predicates. Contractions of only a subject and an auxiliary verb - ex: I am > I'm, he has > he's, they will > they'll - eliminate that independent auxiliary as a prosodic segment and violate that grammar.
A - "Who's going to the store?"

That makes sense. I should have been more emphatic that if/when the subjunctive shows up in speech, it should exist for largely the same purposes it serves in other languages... granted, even in that case, it's less complex than in other languages.
There's at least the wiki article on the English subjunctive.
Personal disclaimer: To me (though I'm not a perfect reporter), (American) English feels like it barely has a subjunctive mood in practice anymore. If you're familiar with the pragmatic application of the subjunctive in your own language or others, that may help, but YMMV for how often and how consistently you'll hear it used in everyday English speech (at least in the US).
