Gender Wackiness

[przed]

fileg pointed to the Gender Genie.

The blurb on the site reads: Inspired by an article in The New York Times Magazine, the Gender Genie uses a simplified version of an algorithm developed by Moshe Koppel, Bar-Ilan University in Israel, and Shlomo Argamon, Illinois Institute of Technology, to predict the gender of an author.

I figured I'd give it a whirl with some of my stories, just for a lark.

The majority of my UNCLE and VigBean stories came up male. But the Pros stories were rated overwhelmingly female. All of which is pretty much the exact opposite of what I expected.

Interesting.

Analyzing different bits of stores is a great idea. Of course, I tried it with Velvet and Silk, one of the smuttiest Pros stories I've written so far, and it still came up female.
