Write Like a Man!
I guess I do, if this online tool is to be believed. I entered in the text from my five most recent blog entries of enough length to qualify, and each time, the Gender Genie spit back that the author was "definitely male."
Which I am.
Try it yourself, if you're not afraid to find out that you write like a girl (or boy).

I'm a girl, but for four of the five samples I submitted, the "gender genie" thought I was a boy. Either I write like a guy or the gender genie is not, in fact, a terribly effective predictor of gender.
I'm also female, but my samples seem to vary with genre: female for my blog on myspace, but slightly male for my fiction works and definitely male for my college history papers.
I just tried with four samples of my non-fiction writing, and each time the genie thought I was definitely male, which I'm definitely not.
