Ever wonder if you write like a man (or woman)?
Just a quick post.
I submitted a couple of my blog posts to “The Gender Genie” at the Book Blog and it tells me that I write like a man!
This site analyses your writing and attempts to predict your gender. It works best with posts of 500 words plus.
From the site:
“Inspired by an article and a test in The New York Times Magazine, the Gender Genie uses a simplified version of an algorithm developed by Moshe Koppel, Bar-Ilan University in Israel, and Shlomo Argamon, Illinois Institute of Technology, to predict the gender of an author. Read more at BookBlog, The New York Times, and The Guardian.“Anybody else write like the opposite sex? Or maybe it’s culturally biased for Australian women?

I write like a man – interesting what keywords it considers feminine or masculine. Who knew?
At least you ARE a man!
