How do you write??
The Gender Genie
This is a fun little toy. You copy and paste a section of something you've written into the text box and then it'll tell you the sex of the person who wrote it, to my experiance it's been right.
It doesn't matter what you use, use a poem, a page from a story, anything you wanna.
maybe even one of your posts from here, hrmmmm?
so let the gendering begin!!!

I tested several of my works:
A short treatise on role-playing, guessed correctly by a wide margin.
One of my English papers, correct by a moderate margin.
A sociology paper, correct by a very narrow margin.
And finally an old post on Rebel and Imperial guerilla tactics in SWG, incorrect by an extremely narrow margin.

All my short stories and rants and such returned strongly as female (like a 500 male 800 female ratio typically) and my last essay returned as male. Barely (Female Score: 2364, Male Score: 2459).
Even more proof I'm not a real boy!
(FYI I am actually male, it just seems I don't write like one)

All of mine came out male. Actually, the scores were a bit androgynous, but male was always higher.
I'm with KAN. I question the validity of the entire concept. Not overusing "but," for instance, is something I taught myself in elementary school as part of my decision to be a better writer. To keep from being repetitive, I altered word orders, used semi-colons, got a thesaurus to keep from using the same synonym twice in a paragraph, and on and on. Additionally, I wrote as to not sound like a complete idiot; most of the females AND males that I knew at the time were idiots.
...AND...now for the test.
Female Score: 140
Male Score: 140
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: unknown!
What a pile of crap.

Unlike the rest of you, I don't require any test to confirm my gender. (which is male of course).

It's testing your Writing Style Gender... which can be different to your actual biological gender.
