:(  I'm a female, really.

(Though, I wonder if it could be the writing sample I provided.  It was written from a male's viewpoint, after all....)

Edit:  Nope.  Apparently I just write like a guy.

And a "Weak emphasis could indicate European." tacked onto both.

One of my posts from when I was mafia GM:

Genre: Informal
 Female = 514
 Male   = 1021
 Difference = 507; 66.51%
 Verdict: MALE

;D

An excerpt from a research paper I wrote this semester:

Genre: Formal
 Female = 486
 Male   = 787
 Difference = 301; 61.82%
 Verdict: MALE

...:)...

This post:

Genre: Informal
  Female = 0
  Male  = 238
  Difference = 238; 100%
  Verdict: MALE

Should I be worried about this? D:

However, I find it interesting that if I had submitted this poist as "formal writing," I would have been considered female.

I tried my whole 8000+ word research paper and still got a "male." Of course, I quoted some male sources in that paper, so that may have skewed the results.

The funny thing is, it was a paper about gender roles. ::)

That's an interesting site, though. I'll have to look more into their criteria for male/female writing styles.

*pastes the first bee post into it*

Genre: Informal
  Female = 682
  Male  = 614
  Difference = -68; 47.37%
  Verdict: Weak FEMALE

Weak emphasis could indicate European.

Genre: Formal
  Female = 200
  Male  = 349
  Difference = 149; 63.57%
  Verdict: MALE

...I contend that it was a very formal piece of writing. And it had less than 300 words, so it's inaccurate.

  Verdict: Weak FEMALE

Weak emphasis could indicate European.

Genre: Formal
  Female = 96
  Male  = 200
  Difference = 104; 67.56%
  Verdict: MALE

It did have a little less than 300 words, so it could be inaccurate. But it is a little odd that it would lean towards me being male when what I wrote was a short piece on anime guys that I fangirl XD
