I think the questions about eyes and 'attractive' faces are very ambiguous.

I did this once before and scored 50 Female.

I am sure that some of the sections worked out differently this time, but my score was still 50 Female in the end.

Seems strange that so many here score so low on the "male" side when autism is linked to this whole "male brain" thing(which ,I admittedly dont really understand)Anyone understand why this would be?

Huh? they were all ugly, there was nothing remotely attractive about any of them.

If I recall correctly, it's about the "most", whether ugly or not. But what I meant was taking turns on the left and right without letting the image affect the result. You can archieve a similar result by only picking the left (or right) exclusively.
How can one be more attractive than the other if neither are remotely attractive?

-100 vs -101
It gets problematic when you compare -infinite and -infinite.
The latter is when you systemise the selections to get a high entropy result in lack of a 'none' option.

My results.

Gender: Female
Score: 25% Male

I should start worrying I suppose. I actually scored neither male nor female but in the middle in every section, but got 12 shapes from 12 correct. All in all, stupid test, although I liked the last part, I just love tests about shapes!

I have done that eye-test a couple of times before. The longer I see faces/remember faces, the better I figure out their emotions with comparison and stuff. I got 6/10 this time, that's a lot and pretty cool.

I am unfamiliar with the manner in which you are using the word entropy.

I'm surprised everyone doesn't say 25 for the split. I mean, that seems logical to just split it evenly.

Yeah, that's what I did. But you could ask for a lot more. And if you were the other person, it would be logical to accept any amount, no matter how low. It's stupid: since I can only have a little, none of us gets anything at all.

I interpretted it to mean that they don't know that part of it. In other words, they think that they can barter for more.
