Test: Is your brain male or female?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/sex/add_user.shtml

Some of the tests are fun, but the results are kind of muddled.
The whole thing takes about 15 minutes.
You need to have a ruler that shows millimeters to measure your fingers.

1. I already KNOW my brain is male...
.
... because, on reading the OP, I didn't even want to think about
using a ruler that shows millimeters.
.
My brain is SMART. And big. HUGE!!! And it can ponder all night long, baby.

Its stage name is Johnny "Wadd" Einstein.

Saw your name and just had to check in on behalf of millimeters, centimeters and meters.

6. Near the middle. Slightly female.
Although I scored very male in a few categories, 3d shapes and systemizing. No big surprise.

19. I fell on the 50 mark on the male side.
My uncle always refers to me as being a "guy's girl". Guess he's right. :P

23. I scored around 25 on the male-brain side
11/12 in the 3D shapes; 0.96 on both hands; 16 on the vocabulary; and 18 on systematizing; 8/10 for "eyes" and I prefer more feminine faces. Everything else was midway between guys and dolls.
