I stumbled on this "Gender Genie" thing, and it's pretty neat. You feed it a portion (preferably large) of your writing and it tells you, based on some algorithm junk and words, whether it thinks you're male or female.

I did it several times and got both genders--my scores were always EXTREMELY close for both male

Haha, perhaps proof that the math that drives this is bull

it said that byron was a female (about 3 times out of 4) and that out of like 5 entries of my blog, i am sometimes a male and sometimes a female. i think it has a lot to do with what you feel like at the time you are writing. if i had any long fiction, i would've done that instead.

Lol, interesting. Yeah, I used fiction for mine. I should try it with my blog posts...
