Snagged from Alyburns.
I thought I'd put in a couple of stories.
--------------------------------------
For The Subtext of a Name, which I consider a story of Daniel examining his feelings, it thinks I'm male. That surprised me.

Male Score: 1611
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: male!
---------------------------------------
In Cloth Ties, Daniel is somewhat passive in a very sexually charged story. Not surprising, it pegged me as female.

--------------------------------------
Forced Perspectives has graphic sex of the non-con variety. I thought this one would be heavily male but it turned out male by a narrow margin.

Esprit de Corps has a lot of sex so I thought it'd be male.

Male Score: 17834
The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: male!
--------------------------------------
It's not surprising that I equate force, power, sex as male and feelings as female--that's very sterotypical. But it is interesting that I flip back and forth. Am I channeling a more male energy in writing some stories? The words they use as keywords aren't particularly male or female to my mind. It's curious.
