Hidden121232341 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Biologically male, *checks to be sure* yep most certainly male, and I'm comfortable as such. Though I did score a 3, which is pretty androgynous. Doesn't mean much to me, since I'll carry on acting how I do regardless, just surprised myself I scored so close to the female side of things. ~Blank Link to post Share on other sites
Significant Form Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Cis male, and I got a 22. I'm a bit surprised that I scored so strongly feminine, but I guess this is what comes of defining masculinity as "whatever the hell I want it to be." I frequently curtsy and click my heels, after all. Link to post Share on other sites
TheLinguist Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 +26: oh heck yeah, I'm feminine. XD Link to post Share on other sites
Asexy51 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Everyone has something androgynous in themselves so this really shouldn't be considered as important as people do consider it. Link to post Share on other sites
loopytheone Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I'm a cis-girl and I got 0. :lol: I guess I'm pretty balanced as a person? Link to post Share on other sites
belovedless Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I'm a cisfemale. I scored -9, Androgynous. Personality-wise, I think this is very true. Appearance-wise, I know it's pretty obvious I'm a woman, what with my makeup, skirts, and body shape. Link to post Share on other sites
Kozlov Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 -32. Not only am I a man, I'm a manly man. That's why I wear pink. Link to post Share on other sites
trewdys Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Agendered biomale -27 I still feel agendered Also, "loves children" is a feminine trait? Really? Link to post Share on other sites
stormwind Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Biological female, perfect 0. (25-25.) Androgynous. Link to post Share on other sites
Rising Sun Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 -9 for me, I'm not surprised. That's how people perceive me, they often tell me how "inappropriate" my attitudes are for a woman <_< And several years ago, I would have had surely a more "masculine" result. Sad to see some qualities are still viewed as "masculine" or "feminine" nowadays :( Link to post Share on other sites
akanesarumara Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 -11, Nearly Masculine (very close to Androgynous.) Link to post Share on other sites
Squawkers23 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 -7, Androgyny. I'm not a huge fan of this test. As others have said, it's just a bunch of stereotypes, and it's very subjective. While I do identify as a male, I'm more feminine than this test would suggest. Though, for the type of test it is, I guess it could have been less accurate. Link to post Share on other sites

CDSM Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I scored +4. Notably, I put 6's or 7's in most of those categories except "loves children", and "dominant and independent", which explains the positive skew. I think it is a poor test. Then again, concepts like masculinity and femininity are meaningless to me. So, this is more "are you stereotypically masculine or feminine" rather than "are you masculine or feminine" (which can't be determined by these kind of tests, I think).

Member47750 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Cisgender female, My result: -20, Masculine I am not impressed by this test. (Though I can't say I'm surprised with the result.) Link to post Share on other sites
Qutenkuddly Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Cis-male and I got a -3. Frankly, not only is this a really poorly designed test, but, yeah, I have a LOT of issues with the stereotypes presented by it. I must admit that I find that, in being a nice guy who can be very assertive when required (part of my job), I would be considered 'androgynous'. *chuckle* Edit: This test was developed in the mid-70s; that explains a lot. :lol: Link to post Share on other sites
UraNepu Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I got 43-43 O_O so 0 so Androgynous not surprise here since I knew already and another gender text I had taken in the past with 125 question gave the result of being neither man nor woman Link to post Share on other sites
Celaina Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 +13 for me. I guess that's about right. I've always been a little andrgynous. I am more on the feminine side and will usually identify as female for the ease of things, but I don't always feel particularly feminine or masculine and sometimes I feel more masculine. *shrug* Link to post Share on other sites
Capslock Cadet Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 Damn, I got -25. It was kind of expected, but maybe I thought the score would be a little less than that, maybe in the "nearly masculine" category. It seems like a kind of poor test, but it was fun nonetheless.

Ophiuchus Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I think it functions much more readily for determining how stereotypically masculine or feminine someone is, and I'm not sure that that wasn't all that was expected, the way the traits used were chosen. Scored +14. I consider my gender ambiguous and unimportant enough to let other people gender me as they wish, and my sex is quite frankly no-one else's business, so "nearly feminine" is fine by me. Might have been skewed a bit by having lots of assertiveness stuff in the male column, so I scored lower there than I might have if there had been more variety. Link to post Share on other sites
significantlysilent Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 07/17/2012i'm biologically female, but don't know what i identify as with gender yet. got a +8, so "Androgynous" by the test. but would have been "Nearly Feminine" if i was up by one point (some of my answers were slightly undefinitive, so they could have went down also...). appearance wise, i prefer to look more androgynous if that means anything much.12/15/2012 just retook the test, and got +2. i identify as neutrios so androgynous fits. again, i have no freaking idea how to rate myself on these questions.... so it's interesting. :P Link to post Share on other sites
K!smet Posted July 18, 2012 Share Posted July 18, 2012 Got +6, meaning in the androgynous range. Was born a woman. Pretty much the kind of answer I expected. Link to post Share on other sites
Syatten Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Got -23. I am biolocally female, but I don't really care about gender. I am assertive and independent, but I never thought these were masculine qualities Now I really want to show the test to my housemates and see their scores Link to post Share on other sites
777777777 Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 I'm agender/slightly genderfluid and bio male and got +3. On the BSRI I got 35 M, 40 F, and 60.833 A/N all out of 100. Link to post Share on other sites
Professor T. Pollution Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I think it functions much more readily for determining how stereotypically masculine or feminine someone is, and I'm not sure that that wasn't all that was expected, the way the traits used were chosen. Defnitely true. I'd argue that's what the test was designed to measure — they specifically relied on what their sample subjects viewed as desirable feminine vs masculine traits. I'm male and got -40. I'm really, really not nurturing/compassionate/etc, strongly dislike children, and otherwise don't fit any of their 'feminine' traits, so that's about what I expected.
