What gender am I?

This is hilarious.  Apparently, I blog like a man.  At least that's what this website, Gender Guesser, believes, based on writing samples from my blog:

Genre: Informal
Female = 581
Male = 874
Difference = 293; 60.06%
Verdict: MALE

I am mulling this over.  Is my writing style macho because I cuss?  Is it testosterone ridden because, when I blog, I usually use short sentences?  What exactly constitutes masculine or feminine writing?  Would my poetry yield the same results?  How many samples should I feed the assessor?

Inquiring minds want to know.

BTW, thanks, Slam Dunks, for posting the link to Gender Guesser.  This has been fun.
