i went throught the test bbc gender test but the final result refused to show itself …

the bbc tester says i’m a little to the female side on the brainage. it would be interesting to see tests using audio, touch, and smell/taste parameters .
by the way, nice to see the Children of Men ad on the site. i strongly urge everyone to go see that movie. it’s tremendous. the book is also very good.

I’m the girliest guy I know. I’m girlier than you. Maybe because I’m a fag? Maybe because I gave the guy at the end a fair share?
I am 50% woman, here me roar! Cringe at my overpowering empathy and ability to rotate objects in my head!

The “rotating in your head” bit makes you male ;)
Spatial reasoning is supposedly more pronounced in guys. I wouldn’t know – I can’t spatially reason myself out of a wet paper bag. Then again, I did score 75% female ;)

Wow! All these female-brained men! I was 50% male — I’m guessing this is cuz I got 20/20 on the angle thing and 11/12 on the rotating thing. I also declared myself an excellent map reader, which maled my score a bit, I think –

Wow, Robert. I thought I was the girliest guy in town!
