The monkey question was one of the few times ever that i’ve been able to put my anthropology degree to use. I don’t recall the species names exactly, but the monkey on the left is a good deal bigger than the monkey on the right (like 3 times the size here), so it’d totally kick other monkey’s ass. ---

BTW, the test accurately identified me as male. The slider thing on the right was damned near smack dab in the middle, tho, and the pic above it showed a guy dressed in drag. Woo! ---

It’s ok **zyzz**. We all know antthropology majors are a bunch of bug eating girly-men. 😉 ---

And the picture was of a man in a dress – oog. I’ve got much better legs than that (albeit much hairier). ---

Is there anyone here who did NOT end up at the end seeing a graph with the slider doohickey pointing at the middle? Did anyone get a slider that was distinctively on one side or the other? PS–They should add the question about how you carry your book bags! ---

I retook the test just to check, clicking buttons at random, and ended up with the little arrow well into the “female” side of the graph, so yes, it does move. OTOH, it could be completely random. ---

It guessed my gender correctly, but that’s not important. **WHAT IS THAT GUY ABOUT TO DO TO THAT POOR GOAT?** ---

I took the test again to see if it got smarter over the weekend. I’m still a woman. Morons. ---

Another dudely man checking in… And the great debate over whether Maeglin is a man or a woman has been resolved by this test: Maeglin is definitely a dude, which is correct. Which has opened my eyes about our relationship. My coming out party will be held tomorrow at Vix’s house 🙂 ---

Once more Balance lives up (down?) to his (her?) name: The test decided I was a woman–more or less dead center of the slider, though, so I figure it was guessing. All I can say is that that’s one #&!!uva clit… BTW, I went with the lefterly primate–I recognized the species from nature shows. Besides, the one on the right is clearly falling to his doom. Oop! Ack! Chee! Monkey Kombat! (I feel deep pity for those of you who get the reference.) ---

I’m “definitely a woman”!!??? Wrong-o! But I am gay, so maybe that’s why I “walk the scary line between man and woman”. ---
