Do this BBC fun quiz - Although men and women have pretty-much the same brain function, I am apparently more like a man! I was good at problems involving rotation and 3D stuff, but I was bad at memory, colour and shape recognition, and noticing subtle changes.

When testing men and women in these things, there is statistically no real difference, but there are a few tests where the difference between man and lady results come higher than the statistical likelihoods.

This might well be dependent on culture and gender stereotypes - there are a lot more leisure activities and varied schools in the west where both men and women can brush up on all skills that were supressed when they were younger gender stereotyped children!

YEah, I cahnged it from "are you an early morning lark or a night owl?" because that was boring - much more fun to see if you have a gender-bending mind!
