BTW, my fiction is written like a female. The scores are something like 406 male to 602 female.

My blogs and non fiction are mostly male with the numbers turned around. Interesting.

Fury, I don't mind your terminology, but I don't have a clear idea of what it might mean for something to be "written like" a female or male. Would you please clarify?

Also, your reference to numbers has me baffled! :) Am I missing something here?
 
I think there's a test not being linked here, JM.

I write like a woman, but apparently like David Foster Wallace. Infinite Jest indeed.

Ah, thanks.

I haven't read any Wallace, so I can't comment on that part of it, but you already know how I read you! It's hilarious to contemplate how one would make up a test for this, really.

There's a couple I've written from a female submissive point of view, but most are from a male Dom's point of view. The female POV stories were easier than I thought they would be. I guess I do have some feminine feelings inside of me. One was purely from my head while the other was written from a female point of view, but I had a lot of the plot spelled out for me by the person who wanted me to write the story. She wanted it to be from her POV and made some other requests, too. It was easier to write, because she gave me a pretty good play by play of what happened. I just embellished it a bit for color. Actually, it didn't need that much embellishing. :D

I don't know anything about scoring. Is this something you saw on another web site? the scoring, I mean.

When I do fiction, I've found bottoms just so much more interesting to write. Almost all really good SM fiction is from the bottom - I think the reader just adapts to their adventures differently, their character arcs are generally way better. A whiny top going through a major character arc is just usually irritating.

Yes, sorry. It seems I left off the link to the site which is.

http://bookblog.net/gender/genie.php

The numbers come up after you put a block of text in for "testing."

I've found this site interesting in the past. For instance when Mark Twain wrote The Diary of Adam and Eve, his Eve entries do come out as being written by a female while his Adam entries show up as male.

I think it's likely he studied how differently males and females write and what markers there are that differentiate between the sexes when writing. He then followed some of that when he wrote the above story. I happen to love that story btw. I think that's way cool of him.

Yes. Sorry about that. Guess I was out of it leaving off that important bit.

I've fixed it now. Thanks for pointing that out!

Who would have guessed that you had a female submissive hiding inside you?

Yes, the link to the site that "tests" your text for sex of the writer is up now. I totally left it off earlier. Doh!

I'd have to agree that a whiny top is a not fun read.

I figured the reason I had trouble writing a top except is some SRP's I've done was because I just have a problem getting into that mind set. It's alien territory for me to inhabit. If you were a Top though I'd have thought it would be easiest to write. This is interesting.

It seems to depend a bit on what I'm talking about, but I tend to come up as female slightly more often than male. This is, of course, after the highly scientific study of ten self-chosen posts that were easy for me to get to.

This doesn't surprise me much seeing how often I've been mistaken for a male online. Hell, I think I was being phished by pervert-hunters at one point. It's gotta be the handle.

I'll have to find some fiction to run through the thing, but right now I'm too lazy to look for it.
 
previous post: 53 female, 179 male

What exactly is so feminine about the words "when", "if", and "not?"

Or masculine about "around", "what", "more", and "are?"
 
Words: 1089

(NOTE: The genie works best on texts of more than 500 words.)

Female Score: 1674
Male Score: 1319

The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: female!
 
I don't know about the gender genie, but most people who read my stories assume I'm a bloke. I suspect it's because I never use the word pussy but prefer cunt.

the gender genie says the above was written by a bloke.:rolleyes:
 
OK, I put bits of my stories in and they all came back as female, though the natural submission was close. I put three bits in from that one and whilst the female part came back as definitely female, one of the male sections came back as only just female.

I discovered that I lost a red H as well :(

Thanks for explaining, Fury. I did a c&p of the most recent NYT column by Gail Collins, and got:

Female Score: 588
Male Score: 1289
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: male!



I agree with Bridgeburner - the gender allocation of keywords is bizarre. Is it really all that manly to ask: 'What, more are around?' and girly to inquire: 'Where, if not with?' ;)

Damn, I hate it when that happens.

I don't know. There may be some research that went into it that isn't explained. I'd like to see it.

I do suspect professional writing in general will come out male more than female.
