I'm a man!

According to an gender role test I've just done (it's backed up by evidence - listed at the end) I am only 22% feminine.

Perhaps 20 years is too long a time to be expected to remember whether it was I or dh actually giving birth? I shall have to tell dd.

Interesting test!
I'm in the middle, 58% feminine and 58% masculine. Undifferentiated-Androgynous.

The science museum used to have a machine that guessed your sex based on your hands, and it told me I was a man. I'm not. I assume it's down to the finger length ratios.

@lottiegarbanzo

Is 'casually feminine' like smart casual, or more like beach wear?
Dunno.

I’m casually masculine so joggers or cargo shorts?

CasuallyMasculine · 06/07/2020 23:36

Definitely time for a name change Smile

PotholeParadise · 06/07/2020 23:37

Weird questions. All the things I would expect everyone to click 'heavily agree' on. Doesn't everyone think they're loyal, likable and so on?

Anyway, 33% masculine, 22% feminine, undifferentiated androgynous apparently.

CasuallyFeminine · 06/07/2020 23:42

@PotholeParadise I think that's why a majority of posters so far have more masculine results than feminine. The traits we tend to view as positive and like to think we possess (assertiveness, loyalty, etc) are, in this silly test, associated with masculinity.

53%m/ 42% F so 'undifferentiated androgynous'.

Why don't the numbers add up to 100%?Confused

Is that because you can theoretically score 100% on both feminine and masculine, maybe?
Staffy1 · 06/07/2020 23:53

Undifferentiated-Androgynous. 47% of both, not sure where the other 6% went.

Makes no sense to me.

ErrolTheDragon · 07/07/2020 00:11

I suppose you're 6% meh, whatever, stuffy.

ErrolTheDragon · 07/07/2020 00:14

If you go through the test leaving it set in the middle for everything it comes out as 33% m, 33%f.

Krieger · 07/07/2020 00:18

53% masculine and 53% feminine. I wonder where the extra 6% of me is.

@ErrolTheDragon

Makes no sense to me.

I'm wondering if it's actually two separate tests running in parallel, if you see what I mean (I can't gigure out how to explain this). So there is a meter from 0% to 100% for characteristics assigned as feminine and another meter for characteristics assigned as masculine.

It's the only thing that fits all the posts so far.

ErrolTheDragon · 07/07/2020 00:19

And if you go through the test clicking fully agree on everything it comes out as 100% Male and 100% female

Lots of those characteristics don't seem gendered at all. Happy, loyal - do they throw in some neutrals or are those being designated m of f?Confused

MiddlesexGirl · 07/07/2020 00:22

50% feminine and 33% masculine. What is the other 17%? What a load of bollocks

Probably given to me. I got 67% masculine 47% feminine. I've a big personality clearly Hmm

TehBewilderness · 07/07/2020 00:24

I'm only three quarters of a man because I am 74% masculine and 44% feminine and WTF is the leftover bit do you suppose.

UnhappyMondays · 07/07/2020 02:22

75% male and 17% female ... maybe the missing 8% is the percentage of nb.... . . ?

HeistSociety · 07/07/2020 02:24

I'm undifferentiated androgynous. Whatever that means. I guess I'm non-binary. Gotta go dye the hair to match.

HeistSociety · 07/07/2020 02:26

I also am less than 100% of a personality. I think the missing bit is the can't be arsed with bullshit bit.

But I am toying with the idea of telling my extremely woke kids that I'm coming out as non-binary, and they can no longer Mum-gender me.

Oliversmumsarmy · 07/07/2020 02:58

100% masculineand 39% feminine

Don’t know how they worked that out as I thought percentages worked out to 100.

NewNameNewShoes · 07/07/2020 03:09

58% masculine (I'm a bloke).

Mothership4two · 07/07/2020 03:47

Hmm.

67% feminine. Think the questions are more introvert/extrovert with a few weird/irrelevant ones. I'm definitely an introvert

Mothership4two · 07/07/2020 03:50

Hang on 67% F and 19% M. What's the other 14% then?
