This test simply reinforced a completely different opinion of mine. Tom Send a noteboard - 03/06/2011 04:07:26 PM
Namely, that the age of literature is gone. All of the excerpts were just painful to read. There are only a few living authors that are actually still writing coherently, it seems.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

8/10, but that is really largely luck if you ask me. Legolas - 03/06/2011 07:45:07 PM 1256 Views
Oh, gender roles. You so pervasive. Do MTF authors write like men or women? IT IS A MYSTERY *NM* Ghavrel - 03/06/2011 09:30:13 PM 509 Views
