Gender genie on Mary Rosh

Seems like everybody is trying out the Gender Genie, which analyses a piece of text and guesses the gender of the writer.

So I gave it Mary Rosh's writings to analyse. The verdict? Male. Well done, Gender Genie!

Wow, that Gender Genie is pretty interesting. It thinks the Introduction to my latest manuscript is written by a woman, while the Methods were written by a man. Hmmmm...

I'm a male, and my sister is female, so fara so good. But, my boss, Kristi, apparently is a man. How about that, I'll have to tell her/him.

Wow John Lott's findings were baseless huh? How about this; guy walks into the local quick mart (a local gas station) and robs it, steps out the door and is shot down by an old woman with a .44 magnum... You know what happened to crime rates in my neighborhood? They plummetted! What John Lott claims is true; if someone is going to commit a violent crime they are not worried about the police, they are worried about their victims defending themselves. People who commit violent crimes do not plan on being caught, but if they have to worry about their victim shooting them, they will think twice. I am not a gun fanatic, I actually think that pistols and assult rifles aren't needed as they are specifically designed to kill people... But this has changed my view on pistols.
