As a warning, this page spends multiple pages teaching you about their gender findings before giving you your results. I had to go through 20+ pages of teaching before getting a prediction on my gender.

  Give them your (or a temp) email address and you get the results immediately. By the way, the test really isn't all that interesting IMO. The results were extremely predictable, in my case at least.

  And they make value judgements on the results they don't seem to like: "The biggest correlation we found between gender and any one personality trait was r=0.42, which means that gender explains 18% of the variability in that trait. Another way to put this is... if you knew a random person's score on that one personality trait, and you tried to guess that person's gender using just that score, you'd mispredict that person's gender 31% of the time!" They think that's low! That's crazy high for just one trait, it would be called "Highly significant" in any paper.

This article is saying that the differences are sexual, not due to gender.

  > This article is saying that the differences are sexual, not due to gender. No, it doesn't. It says that there are striking differences in the distribution of personality traits between the sexes, and does not take a stand on the source, besides that it is “certainly” a mix of biological and social contributions. As gender identity, in the current population, correlates very strongly to “sex” [0] (less than 2% of the adult population reports a transgender, nonbinary, or other identity divergent from their “sex” assigned at birth), any strong gender-based personality difference would also be associated with sex, and vice versa. [0] a misnomer for what is more accurately an externally-ascribed gender; biological sex is multidimensional, the binary division of “sex” by a subset of sex traits is an imposed social construct.

Beware: this requires your email to get the results. There's no mention of it before taking the test. Edit: Nevermind, you can leave the email field blank.
