Is my brain female?

![]() | You scored as Either. You brain is neither specifically male nor female in the way you perceive things. As bad as this sounds it can easily mean that you are capable of combining both gender aspects to your advantage. Rather than being genderless you are possibly able think freely. This does not mean that you are bisexual or androgynous or indecisive, but it might.

That being said... if I were to predict and answer, maybe that is the answer I would have predicted.

I identify as emotionally-bi-but-physically-a. I value reason and intellect above gut-feeling, and it disturbs me that people regard that as a gender-related thing: to me, it suggests a major flaw in socialisation/education, as I think the ability to think and use reason is vital for civilised discourse.
I'm not remotely maternal and bad at nurture: my plants tend to die of neglect, so it's probably a good job I can't keep pets. Children alarm me: I was bullied for years at school, and when I'm among children, I feel threatened. However, I like to indulge in rescue and h/c thoughts about my historical and literary favourites.

I'm certainly happy to be female and wouldn't want to be male, for any number of reasons, most of which I think have to do with hormones and brain chemistry.
I love to look at beauty, male or female.
Me too.
Sex always struck me as a somewhat ridiculous and undignified exercise
That, I have trouble understanding - I mean, I understand what your saying, but my reaction is the polar opposite. "Undiginfied" doesn't come into it, sex is glorious.
I value reason and intellect above gut-feeling
Hmm. I value both, I think. Balance, again. Do I value them equally? Depends on circumstances and context. Emotional responsives can be stupid and destructive, but instinctive or intuitive responses can be more reliable than reason for some decisions.
I think the ability to think and use reason is vital for civilised discourse.
I certainly agree with that. And I'm not sure if it's men or women get the worst position out of this: I think men are encouraged to be rude, crude and aggressive; while women are encouraged to be sentimental or too accepting. Neither extreme is good.
My plants die too. (Pause for a guilty thought about the state of the big plant by the bird-cages. It might be time to send it off to a better home, perhaps a graveyard.) I don't like children en masse but I like many of them individually - which is precisely my attitude to adults.
