hey jgjgirl did u get my text? lol

[JGJTan]

Guys can in fact write straight so nyeeeh to you.

Although when I've been writing for ages my hand sorta gets tired and I start writing all wierd...

[Ratty]

Hmm.. *is really bad at this*

I guess that 4,5,6,7 are all girls, 1,2,3 are guys

----------------

Am I the only one who thinks 6 is a guy?

6 is definatley a girl's prolly one who likes to write notes a lot ?

Heeey that's not a girl's writing! In some ways I write like that... all big and such...

^^ Further proof that your writing is girly

And yeah. Your handwriting is definetly girly..

[Zoo]

anyways who cares what other ppls handwriting looks like

Heheh, it's called curiosity , something I'm fortunately not short of. The point is whether one can tell gender by handwriting or not. Poorly designed experiment, but I'm just interested in rough estimate results anyway.

Here's the results so far, I'll give it a bit longer 'til I add the answers:
1. 7 male, 3 female
2. 4 male, 6 female
3. 10 male
4. 10 female
5. 7 male, 3 female
6. 2 male, 8 female
7. 6 male, 4 female

[Ratty]

Lolz, Zoo!! Tell us whoooo

Meanie!

Hehe, i thought this was quite a clever thing to post, zoo

[JGJTan]

Wait who's the second person who thought number 6 was a guy?

[Zoo]

I tried it on Matt before I posted, put his results in there too.

[Zoo]

Here's the results of the 10 responses, with the correct answers:
1. Female (that's my own handwriting there) - 7 male, 3 female (lol)
2. Female - 4 male, 6 female
3. Male - 10 male
4. Male - 10 female (lol! And this is a pre-med Army guy too)
5. Male - 7 male, 3 female
6. Female - 2 male, 8 female
7. Male - 6 male, 4 female

Some obviously threw people (4 particularly, and 1).
One was apparently really obvious (3).
5 and 6 were a little more confusing (I'm still puzzled over that 6, I find 4 and 6 to be quite similar myself).
The other two aren't much different from random chance (although the sample's too small to say that with any confidence).

Overall it seems that handwriting's not a good indicator of gender ('least by this test, which is biased by having only males participating and perhaps by my choice of samples (maybe bio majors tend to have more 'masculine' handwriting?)).

[Bashae]

Gee.

[JGJTan]

Wow! 4/7... But I still think that #6 is a guy.

And poor army guy!

Rawr here's my handwriting:

[Ruckus Fox]

Hehehe. ^^ Janey, you write your !'s like a girl though. :3 Oh well...Atleast people can read yours. But...Hey. You try writing with your tail.

I dunno about those...but there -are- people who work with forensics(sp?) That their job depends on discovering a person's handwriting...Like that guy from catwoman. They exist. They can tell you what state or mood they were in when they wrote it, what their gender is, their personality, age, almost everything! It's scary...

---Ruckus the Rogue

[Zoo]

Good point . But they're trained to do that, so they're actually good at it .

And yeah those circles instead of dots. . . 'least the i's are properly dotted. . .

Well, I've seen these people in person, no doubt there 'bout who's what .

[r@nG3|2s]

lol JGJ you write like a girl

[Ratty]

Toldya i was bad at this, lol.

i ended up getting...2/7 lolz.

*hides*

Yarr, Definetly prooves that you cant determine gender from handwriting

[Phorgot]

i write in all caps, if i write in print.. most of the time its cursive
