I used some of my own fiction. It thinks I write like a girl. Oh well, I'll probably sell more books that way. ;)

Be that as it may, I have an even simpler way to accomplish this task !

I picked seven past FR posts that did not mention gender anywhere in the prose. Six returned male (two with 100% male scores) and one returned female. So I'll say it is pretty accurate.

Wish CGEB was still posting so we could answer everyone's suspicions for once and for all!

You're just unlucky, all of your posts are seeming to come in gender- neutral.
