Notice, um, the result is? 50%. A quack mentalist could do better than that looking at the wear on my eraser.

The Gender Genie tends to think that my fiction is female and my nonfiction is male, which makes me giggle.

I have a novel draft lying around with alternate male and female POV chapters, and I was amused to find that the female one came out more female and the male one more male, though only slightly in either case. In my own persona, I tend to come out about 50/50 on the online quizzes I've tried; I suspect working in the sciences may have something to do with that.
