Hey, cool, it was right.

Heh, t'would appear, however, that it's wrong more often than it's right. :P

It was wrong. The idiot thought i was female. I typed:
Original: I am not female. Keywords: i am [not] female
Score: -4
Words: 4

The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: Female!

could it be that I am a girl and haven't been aware of it the past 19 years?

it was wrong the first time, and right the second time...

it doesn't seem to be correct very often though, according to the poll.

What are you supposed to type in that box? I just put "William Faulkner" in and it said I was female.

All the chicks dig William Faulkner. Such a ladies man.

I typed. It came back as female which is, more or less, correcto.

I guess I write like a female. I just copied and pasted a couple entries from my blog, and boom, I was female 3/4 times.

Bwahahaha! I pasted in the welcome/opening text from my website and the thing said I was male!

However, when I put in my last set of updates, it said I was female.

And then I put in the first few paragraphs of my story Zero, and it said I was male again! :lol:
