THE END
How to score the TEST
first, add the numbers of A, B and C responses and use the following table to arrive your final result/
For males
A's x 10pts =
B's x 5 pts =
C's x -5pts =
for females
A's x 15pts =
B's x 5 pts =
C's x -5pts =
for any qns where the ans didnt accurately reflect your lfoe or you left them blank, award yourself 5pts.
analying the result
most males will score between 0-180 and most females, 150-300. brains that are 'wired' for mainly masculine thinking usually score below 150. the closer to 0 they are, the more masculine they are, and the higher their testosterone level is likely to be. these people demostrate strong logicalm analytical and verbal skills and tend to be more disciplined and well-organised. the close to 0 they score, the better they are at projecting costs and planning outcomes for statistical data, with their emotions hardly influencing them at all. Scores in the minus range are high masculine scores. these scores show that large amt of testosterone were present in the early stages of teh foetal developement. the lower the score for woman, the more likely she will be to have lesbian tendencies.
Brains that are wired mainly feminine thinking will score higher than 180. the higher the number, the more feminine the brain will be, and more likely the person is to demostrate significant creative, artistic and musical talents. they will make more of their decisions on intuition or gut feeling, and are good at recognising problems using minimal data. they are also good at solving problems using creativity and insight. the higher the score is above 180 for a man, the greater chance he will be gay.
males who score below 0 and woman who scores above 300 have brains that are wired so oppositely that the only thing they are likely to have in common is that they live on the same planet!
scores between 150-180 show compatibility of thought for both sexes, or a foot in both sexual camps. these people do not show a bias for either male or female thinkingand usually demostrate a flexibility in thinking what can be a significant advantage to any group who are ogin throught a problem-solving procress. they have the predisposition to make friends in both men and women.
i score 155..... does it means i am not male not female? unknown sex?
