Once again, I prove myself Teh Butch

Huh. The Gender Genie mostly thinks even my whiny emo posts were written by a guy. I honestly didn't expect that.

Its accuracy stats as a whole are way lower than the creators predicted, but I wonder how much of that is due to people trying hard to fool it. I kind of wanted to, but wasn't trying to per se; I just copy-pasted all of the sufficiently long posts I could find.

Bah!

I just did the same experiment. The thing claims I'm male, 3 times out of 3. I also read the article, and either the "gender genie" doesn't really follow the principles in the article, or it was not designed to work on blog entries. Perhaps the writing style of the blogging population is different from the research population (I have some ideas about that).

Hey, have a good day.
