It's an interesting little algorithm. Basically, based on the words it determines whether your style of writing is more "male" or "female". How accurate it is I dunno but it is curious to think of a writing style as being more one way or another. It never really dawned on me.

It said I was male - LOL

shadows papa · 02-17-2011, 05:07 PM

The Gender Genie says I am male.

It says Robert Louis Stevenson's writing is that of a female. Go figure.

The Gender Genie says female. I can't even write masculine!
