How Manly (or Womanly) is Your Blog?

I recently came upon a really cool blog "tool". This website  analyzes the words in your blog to determine whether it is written by a Male or a Female. If for any reason you are unsure how "manly" your blog might be, check out this really cool tool and find out for yourself.

89 percent male, for the record. This is worth pondering, truth be told: is there something generalizable about male vs. female communication, does it differ when we turn to political communication, and what might this say about the (still) male-dominated world of American politics?

Yes, I can take anything, no matter how silly or how potentially fun, and make it dull. Advanced education, people.

Hmmmm. It seems the my writing style matches Leo Tolstoy's (89%). I'm not sure whether I'm proud of that or not yet.

If it's the Tolstoy of Anna Karenina, I'd be quite proud; of War and Peace? Meh.

I GOT AN 83! See I am not as conservative as the national review.

Are you suggesting that a male leaning means a more conservative lean?
