Aspies and Gender

Where do most aspies fall on the gender spectrum? I'm biologically female and it says I got androgynous. And it also said I was likely a female to male crossdresser(which Im not). But I do agree, I fall within androgynous area brainwise.

Pretty cool test.

A while back there was a poll done on how well people here identified w/their gender & very few felt particularly male or female. I certainly don't. I've been told I'm very androgynous. I'm a lesbian. I've never been particularly feminine, just a bookworm & animal nut.

Could not get the test to work in any browser it crashed out whenever a click on the picture question was attempted.
I am M to F TG anyway
I think my result could have been interesting.

Your Raw Score is: 355, which indicates that overall you are Androgynous
maybe a little

Your appearance is Androgynous
Nope! I look pretty feminine

Your brain processes are mostly that of a Female person.
no idea. Maybe

You appear to socialize in a androgynous manner.
a little, yeah

You believe you have mild conflicts about your gender identity.
Nope! Feel female

You indicated your were born Female.
Yup, I'm female.

ANALYSIS:
Female to Male Crossdresser
NOTES:

Your Answers indicate your psychological state has likely prevailed since you were quite young.
You are in a statistical minority as a bisexual crossdresser. Most crossdressers are heterosexual. Your motivation for crossdressing may be driven by the binary nature of your sexuality, as a way to more fully explore the Male gender role.
I'm not crossdressing in any way, and I never considered that. I feel female. So I guess this result kinda failed.

MY REACTION:
um, I am not a cross dresser. I am an androgynous dresser, if one must define it. I wear low shoes, they're western style riding shoes (not boots) and blue jeans and a polo shirt. Anyone in any western society could wear that. I have very VERY long hair, I wear in a pony tail. I have big boobs and big hips. I am not going to be mistaken for a guy any time soon. or ... ever. Just because I don't flounce around with lace hankies and ruffled dresses.... I dress for comfort, and to be invisible. I nearly succeed. Nothing sexual about it. Which is, I believe, the original point. Nothing sexual....... about it. at. all. nowgoawayandleavemealone

I think the reported results are a oversensitive about female to male crossdressing because there is so little male only clothing. A girl who dresses for comfort will dress more similarly to men.

Also, fleurdelily, keep in mind that most crossdressing is not sexual. That's why there is a difference between transvestism and transvestic fetishism. I'm not trying to say that you are anything, of course, just reminding you that there is no sexual intent necessary in the crossdresser label.

thank you. I will try to keep that in mind, and I think you have a good point about the definition of "men's only" clothing. When I go shopping for any kind of clothing, I am only thinking ... this color must not be too loud. This item must cover all relevant bits of me, and the fabric must be something I can live in comfortably. It must be durable so that I don't have to do this shopping very often. When I put things on in the morning, I am not thinking any thing sexual about my clothing at all. nada. not, "will I look cute in this?" not, "will guys find me attractive" no, nothing whatsoever. Mostly, it's gotta be utilitarian. If I have a stack of interchangeable parts, stuff to cover feet, stuff to cover underneath and stuff to cover bottom half and top half, then that's just covered all the bases, then. Clothes stacked in my room are interchangeable solid colors. No thinking required. That's it. utilitarian is the concept, and I've streamlined it to be as no-brainer as possible

Though one could make the argument that such a utilitarian view of clothing is more typical of men, it's obvious that aspergers is a confounding factor in this assessment. I feel the whole assessment is in need of a good refining process, but can provide some insight and information, if you keep its issues in mind.

the questions that required the click--after the first attempt erased all my answers, I took the test again without answering them. I wasn't sure if it would calculate my score, or tell me to go back and answer those 3 or 4 questions, but I guessed on the first, picking a random answer, then didn't answer the remaining ones, and it DID calculate my score without answering them. My backup plan would have been to answer each one with the center option. (the way you do on angebra word problems - if you cannot do them, btw LOL)

It seems to be an old, orphaned web page. The system requirements state that IE 6 is the best choice. Sorry but I just can't take seriously ANYTHING that requires IE 6! Also, it was designed to work with Windows 95 or 98, which tells you just how old it really is.
