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)

Well it's an *interesting* test! I am very surprised that many of my female friends are scoring so differently than me. That's promoting me to think about what's going on.

Ehh, I feel like the simplicity more than makes up for the confounding, it seems like a fairly good way of splitting out masc/fem with a very simple premise. To get more nuance you'd have to add much more complexity.
