Gender Prediction -- Can You Fool It?

Actually no, men are more predisposed to use certain words while women are more likely to use others.
Linky to the Israeli site/research please?
While the algorithim to the whole deal is very basic, if there was more variables or something, then it might work.

I haven't gotten the link to work yet, but this PDF is supposed to be the paper ...

A similar genie began floating around blogs a number of years ago. Would say it's far from being absolute nonsense. Would also imagine numerous factors could contribute to development of alternative word choice. [without having looked at the algorithm or paper, neither of which are working for me] If I remember rightly, the previous test focused on use of specific contractions or generalisation, and references to self. Based on individual habits and inevitable variations it's easy to see how we can all become a bit 'confused'.

{Alright, having actually taken the test, it does admittedly seem even more simplistic than the last. Slightly disappointing in its limitations.}
