Some may have pondered without much thought or some have become irritated by timewasted pursuits from online personals that one gender is pretending to be their opposite gender.

Passage 1.
The main aim of this research is to suppose an exercise in gender analysis that can be employed in the teaching of human communication. It details the design and results of an analysis on narrative carried out by many student authors in a school or university department of English. The methods proposed are intended to enable me to obtain insights into aspects of cohesion and narrative structure: insights, it is suggested, which are not as readily obtainable through more traditional techniques of stylistic analysis. The text chosen for analysis is a short story comprising only 11 sentences. A jumbled version of this story is presented to students who are asked to assemble a cohesive and well formed version of the story. Their re-constructions are then compared with the original genders that made them.

I proposed my own methods so I can see how he and she wrote; and expressed themselves: and how they saw others, suggested, weren't available through our traditional methods for stylistic analysis. I made my test by writing my short story within 11 sentences. I gave my students this jumbled story of mine and asked them to write their own. I then compared how he and she wrote them.
Can you tell with absolute faith and confidence who wrote them in terms of gender?
