Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 100%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 0%

Check out this clever little site that analyses your browser history along gender lines. On those personality type tests I always score highly masculine, but clearly my computer doesn't know that. Must be all those craft websites.... Or the bra shopping? Guess I should hang out on sports pages more.

Oddly enough, I'm quite a bit more man than woman. Huh.

70/30 female/male

And what they had listed as the most male sites, had the content that I would think was most female.

[girlyswot.livejournal.com]

Which? I thought most of them made sense.

I don't remember all, but ning.com was more masculine (all I've seen there is spiritual stuff, mostly women in the groups), and bbc, which I thought would be neutral, was the most masculine of all. There were some others too, but I don't remember which...

BBC has lots of news and sports coverage - I'm not at all surprised it gets more men.

I couldn't believe my female/male ratio to be 32/68 - until I remembered that husband and son also use Firefox, and saw the websites listed include Lego and Wii, Slashdot (just looked it up now out of curiosity and tag line reads, "News for nerds. Stuff that matters."). We've taken your suggestion of Wii as sociable gaming to heart, and hoping to buy one as a family present for Christmas - so the males have started their investigations and deliberations about the 'important' features already, alongside comments such as, "You don't mind about the colour, do you? Oh, 'that' colour is more expensive!"

LOL - I can see why your browser would be confused. I should think that choosing the Wii would be an activity that will occupy all your males for the next six months!

Goodness, that's clever. I've come out 47% female, 53% male! I think the easy explanation is that I've been doing a lot of research on Frank Zappa.

Also, the person who wrote the script points out that it doesn't check the number of times you visit each site, so it can be even more of a blunt tool than you'd expect. LJ, unsurprisingly, has a strong female bias.

27-73. You don't think it's a scam to get bank logins do you?

I don't think so...

Phew! What a relief - you're a woman!
