baratron is probably female.

Amazing!

My journal says I'm 53% feminine.

According to the poll link about the accuracy of the test, 57.5% of people said it came out with the wrong answer (out of a sample size of 5000 or so). That means it's slightly worse than random.

I do wonder if the problem is that people write in their journals differently than how they'd write (say) a letter or an essay. For instance, my style is very chatty and not very formal. I haven't bothered to follow the links in any detail to see what the algorithm is based on.

I'm just amused that I can actually do an online test which pegs me as female. Normally I come out strongly male or "androgynous".

Well, it's obviously based on my public journal entries, which, to be honest, are a tad stilted, but I think I came out at fifty something percent male. I too would be interested in what it was based on exactly.
