Recently I discovered a great, fun little tool online called the Gender Genie. It guesses the gender of the author who has typed or pasted in some of their text. 500 words is better than just a sentence or two and it only takes a minute or less for results (depending on your connection). Plus it shows the keywords more often than not used by female and male authors.
Periodically, I enter some of my "Enthusiast" text and only once have I come up with "female." As you know, I want that body of work to sound as if written by a male and had previously asked a published author at the San Diego Writer's Conference for his thoughts (he said definitely male-written).
I hope you have fun with Gender Genie!
(For fun, I submitted this blog entry into Gender Genie and it said it was written by a female.)

That's fun!
I tried twice with Mummy Case and once I was a male and the second I was a female. Hehe.
