So for those of you who took the test, how did you answer the gender question.  Did you answer with your birth sex or your transsex?

I took the test for fun and answered the gender question in my transsex.  (80% sure I am a woman.)

Chaunte

89% more male than you — 3% like you — 7% more female than you

They're 28% sure about this!    LOL!!!

Geez!  Should I tell my therapist?  I chose not to tell them anything about my true gender - heck, sometimes I'm as confused as the test was!

I took the tickle test and found that I am 93% FEMININE. By the way my bedroom was painted powder blue, a definite feminine trait. Its now off white but that may change.


Owen

"*sigh*  I think I love cats more than some people.... "

Valerie, I think the same thing!

12% female btw

An intersting use of this test:  I suggested to a number of people at my work to take it, "Just for fun," I suggested.  More GG's took it than GM's and the test predicted the gender correctly each time!  One GG got a result that was 0% sure she was female   ^{?!? ?!?} so I'm not sure what that means however (she is a bit, self admittedly, masculine).  I admitted my results (took the test 3 times, each time FEMALE) to a small number of selected female friends as a way of coming out, in a small way, to them (I have very few male friends there).  So far, no turned backs!

Whoo Hoo!e
helen

huh, that IS an interesting use of the test.  quite useful =D  thanks for sharing, and congrats on coming out successfully to those people!!

Well, I took this sparks test.

It said that 79% who took the test were more male than me.  5% were like me. And 16% were more feminine than me.   Therefore that I must be a woman.   As a 59 year old MTF,  this only confirms the way I have felt since I was thirteen.   I think more like a woman, therefore I am one.   

Yes I am purrfectly aware that this may not necessarily follow masculine logic.  But it follows my feminine logic.  So there!

I was honest.  I said I was female.  My physical body is not who I am.

All of those tests are retarded 

I always score as a female and more female then 70% of the women out there.

So much for 100% accuracy: like any other test, it eventually got one wrong. My result was 4% male. 

And I too gave it my preferred gender rather than birth sex.

even though i ve stopped so many times hrt, confused about my gender, the test shows that i m 85 % woman inside. Txs fro remind me what i am.

Yup, says I'm a female.

Common sense to me.

I am a Woman

89% more male than you — 3% like you — 7% more female than you

Naturally, knew it all the time, That was kind of fun...

Katie

Very interesting test.

And the results are: I AM A WOMAN!!!

Maybe I'll show this to my new pyschiatrist! I had once shown my results of the COGNITIVE test to my first therapist and he gave me some very disapproving  comments about it.

BTW I was at 7% woman

I just took the test again, and even though I changed three of my answers I moved up one percent (I'm now at 8%) and my results were that I'm still a WOMAN!!!

Gina 

Well, I took it for the second time just now.  First time the test was like 4% certain I was a woman.

This time I was trying really hard to choose by feeling, not by 'knowing' what the answer should be for a particular gender--

It all adds up... we feel 24% certain that you are...
A Woman!
Compared to others...
            
84% more male than you — 4% like you — 11% more female than you

Somewhere I read that those people who have higher IQs have fewer gender differences -- probably because IQ is raised by bringing functions 'common' to the other gender 'on line', so for example both male compartmentalized and female diffuse processing are simultaneously available.

And, travelling down that tangent a bit further, another article mentions that women entering menopause notice that their mental acuity diminishes.  But researchers have discovered that it's perception and problem-solving in the female mode that diminishes, and often these women can discover and learn to use their long-dormant male-mode processing to take up the slack.

For me, it's been fun and exciting to note that as I progress on HRT, those female traits of empathy and intuition -- traits that before were faint and fuzzy in me (but still noticeably there,) -- are becoming clearer and more prominent.  Already I find I'm quicker and more sure at reading someone's emotional state, or the emotional subtext in a conversation.

--oops, pardon the long tangent

I know what you mean by the different types of mental processing.  Quite a while before I even realized I was TS, I realized I had the ability to make decisions using empathy and intuition and it became a matter of trusting myself that I was right in order to override my formerly default method of thinking by logic.  So I had already activated myself into thinking in a more female way without realizing what I was doing at the time.  I hadn't even thought about this until you made mention of it.

oh man here we go - this is largely about social conditioning, which is why such a 'test' is so so revealing; basically girls can't be smart. Can't spacially reason. Can't do math. (NB: Wendy Carlos had to be Walter on album covers for like seven years, after surgery and name change, behind this prejudice) Can have empathy and 'feminine intuition' in spades, but leave the details to us menfolk sweetheart.
I took this test just to see how bad it was: "70% are more female than you, 12% sure you are a man".

that was a short tangent Karen. Very insightful; can you elucidate (in another tangent, if you're still watching this topic) 'male mode' vs 'female mode' problem-solving/processing, and how that was specifically compartmentalized?

Men tend to compartmentalize emotions whereas females don't  This allows men to make decisions based on pure logic without any emotional involvement, whereas women tend to make decisions based on what the feel is right.

Melissa

Yeah I had that same problem too. It would'nt let me passed logging in.  Oh well I already know I am a man.
