my turn | my turn



it's that split male / female thing. i got the same overall results as moonflake.

some points that i found interesting:

angles: 19 / 20
18 - 20: You have more of a male brain. On average, men outperform women in this task and those with more mathematical knowledge tend to score quite high as well.

spot the difference: 93%
67 - 100%: Those with a female-type brain generally score in this range. Your ability to remember where objects are may serve as an advantage to you when you're trying to find your way around places. You're more capable of recalling landmarks to get from one place to another.
and more likely to be argued with by other males when it comes to directions. and i'm never embarrassed to ask for directions.

empathising / systemising: higher than average for both, for both genders. so i guess everyone can stop arguing with me about the difference between a geek1 and a nerd2, huh?

Your choices suggest you prefer more feminine faces.
i really didn't need *anyone* to tell me that.

3D shapes: Are you an engineer or do you have a science background?
it's not clear to me if we choose these fields because we have male brains, or if we can learn these skills from studying in these fields. i'm fairly confident this test is irrelevant, unless they run the other tests before the subjects have chosen what to study, and then again after they complete their studies.

words: way above average for both genders. this is a solid indication that i talk too much, and loads of crap when i do.

ultimatum: i think i might have misunderstood the question, because i went with 50%. either that, or i'm just a sucker.

again: thank you moonflake. i started doing the test, then spot began, then our manager walked in and shouted at us for not working. i would've closed down normally, but it was during a timed test :S

1 geeks identify better with technology
2 nerds smell funny and lack in social graces
