Silliness

[aidenonymous]

I took a silly gender quiz for the first time in years, and this is what it said:

You're a guy! Mind you, I'm only 1% sure of it. Of course the system is hardly 100% accurate, but using data from the #11337 other people who have taken the test, it is now 20% better than a chance guess. Please teach the system whether or not it was right so it can improve!

I am amused because I didn't manipulate any of my answers to try to get a particular result.  During my quiz-taking phase in middle school and the brief relapse when I put on the questioning hat, I used to take each quiz twice, once giving the answers that I felt were more masculine because I wanted the validation of a silly quiz telling me I was man enough, and then once being honest.  I don't recall the outcomes when I was being honest (probably a mix leaning masculine, since that's what I actually am), but I pretty much figured out what tests like that are looking for (although this one was pretty weird, not gonna lie).  At this point, I'm secure enough in my masculinity to not worry about the outcome, but I still took the test after all.

Thenagain- I answered as the femme "me" though not taking time to think of "why" I was choosing which answer counts, eh?

You're a girl! Plus, I'm 47% sure, which is quite sure for this type of system. Of course the system is hardly 100% accurate, but using data from the #13943 other people who have taken the test, it is now 20% better than a chance guess. Please teach the system whether or not it was right so it can improve!
