The Gender Genie

My bookworm / web geek brother Brian sent me this, forgive if you've seen. Enter in any text and it guesses the gender of the author. The only author he's gotten wrong so far on my watch is Dan Savage.

Well, I typed in some of my own writing, and it said:
Female Score: 367
Male Score: 199

So, I guess I have female voice on paper! Or this is not that clever of an algorithm.

Bee-yotch! I already posted this two months ago. I typed in "I have a vagina" and it still knew I was a man.

I pasted in the content of this posting, and the author is a male. mmmmm, Karen, would you like to comment.
