Okay, so men and women are different. We all know this. Once in a while political issues make us say things like, “We’re really not that different!”, but then scientists come in and pretty succintly inform us that we are different. Our brains are somewhat different, our bodies take slightly different shapes, our drives in many respects are different. And, apparently, this affects how we write. A bit of software out there on the net, called the Gender Genie, can analyse a text and with a pretty impressive degree of accuracy tell you whether the author is male or female. …

sarah hatter and change
Over on sarah hatter dot com, Sarah has something interesting to say about desperation and whether people really do change in life: The more desperate the circumstance, the more urgency a person has to find something to count on, to hold true to.
