How will you know, unless you take this Internet quiz?
(I get a 78 on the Husband scale ("Very Superior"), so yay, me. Of course, if I answer the Wife questions, I get a 16 ("Very Poor (Failure)")... Which, given the preposterous sexism of the standards, probably also counts as a "yay, me!")

Winter term classes started on Monday here at JMU, so I figure this is a good time to get out of dodge! I will be participating in the 2010 Joint Mathematics Meetings in San Francisco. Yay!
I was so scared this was gonna happen while I was at the dentist this morning, but some time this afternoon/evening, New ERV (not including Old ERV) is gonna get its one millionth visitor!
This is a follow-up on the TED talk I just posed.
These are my reactions in real time as I watched the video:
About 5 hours ago, "HP from Palo Alto, California" just rocked our world (and helped a bunch of public school classrooms) by plunking down $50 on each of the 13 challenges mounted by ScienceBlogs bloggers in the Do
Wow. I got an 86 (very superior) on the husband scale, and 46 on the wife scale (average). Can you guess my gender from those scores?
EarlyToBed, since I got the same results as Chad, no, which is kinda the point. =>
Creepy! I got an 87 husband and a 36 wife!
Does that mean EarlyToBed and i would make a great couple? ;)
Jeepers, I got a 96 as the husband. Of course some of the questions aren't relevant. I think I'm a good provider, but she makes about 20% more than I do, so how do you answer that?
I suppose my biggest fault is how much I blather on about the efficiency of my stenographer.
I assumed this test provided a score on a scale of 1-100. That is, until I scored a 129. I'm not sure what a "perfect" score would be, but any test that scores me that high is clearly flawed.
As a wife, I score a 53, though I had trouble with many of the questions; am I answer what I do, or what I would do if I were a woman? (I might wear red nail polish, but as a man, I certainly don't.)
I also took the wife test for my wife, answering as I think she would. She scored an 80.
Apparently we're both such superior spouses. Do other people have marital strife based around one (or both) parties eating too many onions and garlic before bed?
The theoretical minimums and maximums are in the vicinity of -100 and +165.
I got a 140! I'm genius! My wife (I answered for her) scored 101. Not bad at all.
I scored a 118 (as the husband (which I am)). Does that make me completely whipped? Honey? Does it?
No, scoring a 118 does not make you completely whipped. Scoring 161 (which I did) does make me wonder what kind of jerks men were in the 1930's that I could so easily score that high. Maybe not having children helps, though.

Wow, that's interesting spam, reusing comments from the very same thread . . .
