also 'i hate men' totally flummoxes it. which clearly is a female thing to say. well, every woman ive ever dated says it at some point anyway

Put in a couple of essays and it guessed correct!

But it does say in the same paragraph; 'You can't fool the Gender Genie' and 'Accurate 80% of the time.' A contradiction?

my car has recently started jumping out of gear, mainly second, and its only happened a few times, at at low speeds. i spose. might well be that I'm rubbish at driving though. its a little hard to tell whilst I'm texting, typing, stirring my coffee and griddling up a butty on my George foreman port-a-portly in-car sandwich maker all at the same time. most of my appendages are busy you see. so.. is summat (else) knackered, or do 'they all do that sir'? clues would be appreciated, a new, free clutch, gearbox and fitting (and valet, natch) would be appreciated even more

I just thought it sounded like me when I'm wittering on, so guessed it would come out as 'female'.

We should compare shoes and handbags some time honey
