I realized I should probably post my own results. . . so here:

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 15%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 85%

Trouble is about 20 of us from my uni seminar group tried it for a laugh. It was pretty well 100% wrong.

Wow. Well, your uni group doesn't represent the average internet user (according to cnet.)

I think part of the problem is that it categorises information biased sites like DailyTelegraph and BBC as MALE - and therefore in a group of academic students who are constantly looking at news and info sites they will tend to be wrongly classed as having male interests. Whilst it also tends to think social networking is female... and a lot of the boys on our course seemed to use those sites a lot...

Yep.

Guess right for me, though I can't figure out why:

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 81%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 19%

Which is weird because I actually visit a lot of "male-oriented" sites (coding and video games etc).

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

Well hmmm.... I'm not sure if it's right or wrong!

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 50%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 50%

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 40%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 60%

not so shabby...

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 63%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 37%

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 74%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 26%

... apparently, all artists are girls?
And looking at my history myself, I can't help but to notice the pornography and all the Icelandic research links and go "hmm... wonder why that's not listed"...

-.- stupid tool is stupid

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

LOL  I guess looking for a new suit at a department store is feminine eh?  Apparently women also care more about volunteering, eating healthy, and surfing the web (google and yahoo).

Just for chuckles I tried it .....

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



Ya think. 

I've had my browsing history analyzed by this guy before. If I recall correctly, none of my porn sites or sex toy sites or anything of that nature came up...and, funny thing, I got a much higher male rating before than now--I was either pre-transition or very early in transition when I first had my history analyzed.

ETA: this program clearly doesn't consider semi-tech sites like Fry's to be male, probably because they are commercial sites. My male ex goes to Fry's and Best Buy online all the time to compare prices, but I guess that's a girl activity. And the pro-military site I go to doesn't get counted at all...

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 2%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 98%

I'm apparently very male because I've visited "software nerd" sites and open-source software sites.  Silly little test needs to take number of visits into account

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 56%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 44%

And that's relatively right, cool! 

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 53%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 47%

meh

only picked up 6 of the sites i visit regularly....

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 53%
Likelihood of you being MALE is 47%
