“Average Female Scientist”

And I had no idea. Well, at least now I know I definitely don’t have Asperger’s.

For the record, I don’t know quite how this came about, and it’s not really a good indicator of where I stand, because for a lot of the choices I wasn’t really sure what to put, and just ended up winging it(there’s 50 questions, so the temptation is very much present). Also, while I will accept that men, in general, are more geeky than women, in general, I’m a little surprised that “average female scientist”  considered less geeky than “average man”.  That just seems like pushing it.

    Linked, and commented. Any idea why all the possibly related posts are, like, totally unrelated?

  4. My score’s 27… uh oh…

    :) Hey, you already knew you were geeky, so anything short of an asperger’s diagnosis is good news.

    16 Perfect for me–female biologist/photographer–not quite geeky enough for “scientist” as I tend toward big picture ecology–might be a pretty good test–do like to categorize those photos–explore relationships and patterns. Life is a creative journey of discovery.

    17 is good. But I’m surprise that I fit geeky.

  8. Not particularly surprised at my score of 37.I am a constantly told to shut up at home where I enjoy talking about my current projects.I have no friends other than family,extended but close family included.so overall I have learned nothing from this link.Maybe i should check with a mental heatlh professional do i have aspergers/other autism spectrum disorder.
