Soeur | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:24 pm  The Gender Test |
Max | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:41 pm  Cute, but wrong! It said I'm a man with 86% confidence. LOL Doesn't bother me, just tells me that the folks compiling the scores have underestimated the power of woman to be all things! BTW, Question 23 is just plain not nice.  |
Soeur | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:44 pm  now I have to go back and check what #23 was... |
Gail | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:47 pm  The picked wrong on me. "Statistically speaking, I am a dude." (80% certainty) I wonder if this is because most of the people I work with and most of my friends are men? |
Juju2bigdog | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:49 pm  LOL, it nailed Juju as female with 86% certainty.
 |
Soeur | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:49 pm  they are 86% sure I am a woman...(even though I'd rather fall to my death than drown, I did know about clams...} #23 is a chuckle  |
Soeur | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:51 pm  what about bigdog?  |
Gail | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:52 pm  Max - you and I can just be two wild and crazy guys!! |
Norwican | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:54 pm  It got me... 80% confidence. |
Leap | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:56 pm  Statistically speaking, I am a chick. However, my plot is in the dead center of the graph. Interesting quiz. |
Max | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 02:59 pm  #23 says something to the effect of "Does Canada suck?" and the choices are "Yes" and "Yeah". Gail, we're wild and crazy SOMETHINGs!!!
 |
Azriel | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 03:19 pm  They are 80% certain I'm a female. I picked falling over drowning, too. |
Leap | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 03:30 pm  I picked falling over drowing, too. After I read The Perfect Storm with its description of drowning, I decided there is no way I would want to go that way. I also picked a white bedroom because I hate the color blue. |
Gail | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 03:55 pm  I picked drowning. It seemed like a more peaceful way to go. Plus, there is always that small chance some kind person will find you and revive you after you are dead. Hey! A dude can always hope, right? |
Soeur | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:02 pm  Drowning is long and drawn out, Gail. I'm not sure that's the best option. Of course, with either there would be the feeling of panic caused by not being grounded to a solid base. (but I think falling would be faster - depending on the altitude)*. What did you guys say for hungry/cold (I'd rather lose weight...) *as my son says..."if you fall first from a skyscraper, you won't feel a thing and you're gone for good". |
Willi | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:03 pm  86% sure I'm definetely a Woman. I picked falling over drowning. |
Nancy091158 | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:05 pm  phew they are 86% sure I am female...last time i checked I was..hehe ;-) |
Gail | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:15 pm  I picked hungry. After a while, you dont notice it as much. If I am cold, I am absolutely miserable! Yes Sis, drowning is long and drawn out but that gives you a bit of time to have your life pass before you. Besides, if you fall, you're going to be a mess. Probably not much left for organ donation, etc. To me, drowning just seems more peaceful . . . like going to sleep. |
Soeur | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:24 pm  Can you donate your organs if you drown? That's an interesting question. Short term you could be right about the mess factor, but if you wash ashore after a period of time, that wouldn't be too pretty. My life has passed before my eyes twice; that experience actually takes only a couple of seconds (but it seems like a much longer amount of time elapses). |
Gail | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:29 pm  You'd have a better chance of donating them if you drown then if you fell a long way. They could always donate them to science. |
Glass | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:32 pm  86% certainty I'm a man. Wrong! Is there something I don't know about myself? I picked drowning - less messy (nothing to scrape off the sidewalk) and possibly makes you a part of the food chain (sort of a cool idea as long as you're already dead). The test seemed to indicate that men are more literal & word based, and women were into imagery. I don't think that always holds true. |
Soeur | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:36 pm  you two have almost convinced me on drowning. The food chain point is terrific - very appealing. |
Lancecrossfire | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 04:44 pm  I'll take the big splat. Much less painful. It will only hurt for a second. Drowning is fairly painful. The body trying to not breath at that point can be painful, and the lungs filling for water is said to be very painful and lasts longer than a second. People bounce when they hit from falling. (I have a work mate who is a skydiver) A person doesn't become like an egg. I agree about not having too much luck with donor parts, except maybe the heart when you hit the ground. I can see mentally the ground coming up fast as being less acceptable. |
Soeur | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 05:24 pm  the feeling of dropping fast would be pretty scary. Maybe I'd die of a heart attack before landing... |
Gail | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 05:27 pm  The feeling of dropping too fast would make me sick to my stomach - now wouldn't that be a mess!! |
Twiggyish | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 07:13 pm  86% female =) Lance, I have a fear of heights, so that question wasn't hard for me. I chose drowning. I didn't like #23 either. |
Guruchaz | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 07:19 pm  Yes, I am definitely male. This was verified by two seperate tests.
  |
Azriel | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 07:48 pm  I've had my airway cutoff where I couldn't breath before. I never want to experience that feeling of not being able to breath again. I think it would be a horrible way to die. I'd rather splat. I chose being cold, but if it was extreme cold, I wouldn't want to get frostbite. I would choose being hungry over that. |
Digilady | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 08:26 pm  I'm a real dude. LOL! Picked falling, too. Quicker the better. Colder or hungry? Hungry every time. |
Misslibra | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 09:27 pm  Gee am I the only 100% female around here ? LOL whats up with that huh ?  |
Misslibra | Wednesday, February 28, 2001 - 09:34 pm  BTW I picked drowning to, falling to my death sounds to painful. It would be my luck that I wouldn't die right away.  |
Resortgirl | Thursday, March 01, 2001 - 06:10 am  I've had 'drowing" dreams since I was a child, scares the hell out of me. Falling though would suck, remember that scene from "Cliff Hanger"? So I would prefer to fall, but just from a chair or something and in a freak accident, I hit my head on the counter on the way down and die instantly. That is my choice.... oh, and they did guess that I am a woman |
