Pinched from UKA Forums, this little widget will analyse your writing then state what sex you are.

Do you need help on that one Flashy? I'm sure a doctor could diagnose your gender for you!

It got me right too... but its wrong more than 50% of the time according to the stats?
Flash
I did seven
1= male
5=Female
1= didn't have any idea what gender i was.
sabelle
Well, it's proved me right about you, Sugar
Pete
Gender is not the same as sex though,is it?So your gender and sex don't have to tally.
Rachel
What?
Flash
Does my bum look big in this?
sabelle
Not if you compare it to an elephant's butt
Pete

Rachel

Rachel , As I understand it sex is usually used to refer to biological categories(mostly male or female though there are some genetically and physically ambiguous people around).Gender is usually used for the sex you feel you are or demonstrate traits of in accordance with societal expectations.Its largely tied in with social constructionism and similar dodgy concepts.Hope that helps though I'm getting considerably more confused.Where's my tights?
Pete
Oops the original post says sex not gender.Sorry
Rachel
Hmmm. Need to go away and think about this one but I think I know what you're saying.

Completely wrong everytime. Shame really, it's a groovy little widget.
