They think they know all the answers.

reynardoThe following information comes from a test about Sex and Gender issues, to be found at This site .
I got rather annoyed at it, though.
It assumes that you're male to start with. Apart from the whole "9 1/2 weeks" business suit, bound breasts and wig routine, girls often dress in so-called "boys clothes". As an 11 year old I was tall, skinny, had neck-length hair and was mistaken for a boy pretty often, so I included that in the quiz.
It now assumes I'm a cross-dresser.
I also got very annoyed because we're having hassles with Norton's not wanting to display images that might be ads, so it was difficult to do a lot of the picture-based questions.
You believe you have mild conflicts about your gender identity.
Er.... no. I know I have masculine traits. They're easily explained becuase the physical indication (lengthening of the ring finger in comparison to the index finger) that shows I probably had a large amount of testosterone while inside my mother, but I know I'm female and don't have a problem with it. But the test questions seemed to decide that if you weren't worried about the whole male/female thing then you wanted to be the opposite.
Questions like :
You have to take an aptitude test. You get one week to study up and get to choose the subject:
* Geometry or Science
* Science or Math
* History or Science
* English or History
* English or Literature
were difficult because I like ALL of them.
At what age did you become aware of a difference between the sexes?
* About age 15
* About age 12
* About age 9
* About age 7
* About age 5
Er... considering so much of the quiz so far has been about thought processes, do you mean like "Boys have bits and girls don't" or do you mean "Boys think differently"? I realised the "bits" bit at about 3. Most kids do.
Have you ever been caught, found out, punished, or discovered engaging in something usually regarded for the opposite sex?
* No.
* Maybe once.
* There have been a couple of incidents.
* Yes, and it caused you some problems.
* You don't even bother trying to hide, you're okay with it.
What - like playing on the Jungle Gym at school, which (in 1970) was only for the boys?
And I'm afraid a lot of the answers for the freminine side seemed to be pretty negative, which was putting me off the whole thing anyway.
When you you remove hair, you remove it from
* Just the face
* Face and maybe back or chest
* Face, back or chest, maybe under arms too.
* Mostly legs, maybe arm pits or some elsewhere on body
* Just legs and arm pits.
er... none of the above. The hairbrush, the dog (and the carpet where it seems to end up), the shower drain...
You are in grade school. The teacher has just given you a gold star for:
* Addition
* Multiplication
* Knowing the Capitol.
* Perfect Spelling.
* The Best Poem.
This is just weird.
You are playing a board game with friends or family, your playing piece is most likely to be:
* The Car
* The wheelbarro
* Whichever piece you happened to grab from the box
* The clothes iron
* The high heel boot
Actually, it's either the Scotty Dog, the cannon or the battleship. Go figure.
You'll notice, too, that there are spelling mistakes and typos in the test.
(sigh)
I'm happy as me,and I'll remain that way, thanks.
