The gender test doing the rounds is a test for Cipolla-stupidity in disguise. With Cipolla-stupidity codes as feminine and tweaked a bit.

The friends I've seen score feminine on it are not Cipolla-stupid, so I don't think this is right.

Yeah that's why it's a bad test. It is based on silly scenarios where it is not possible to distinguish the cipolla stupid from people who score feminine for various reasons (I don't know if it even reliably detects gender at all)

I'd have to do multiple runs to be sure, but I think it's two different optimization goals: Maximize personal gains vs. minimize group spread. Only works as Cipolla-stupidity if group cohesion is valued at zero.
(Counter: "Rationally" it should be zero in a one-shot game.)

Would Cipolla argue that a stupidity test is impossible? Man, such a thing would be valuable. Add a warning to LinkedIn profiles, perhaps.
