1. Look at her (or his) hand.
Compare the length of your date’s fourth and second fingers. Most men have ring fingers that are conspicuously longer than their index fingers, whereas most women have ring fingers that are close to the same length. Testosterone levels likely account for the greater length.
Also take notice of the amount of hair on your date’s knuckles, hands, and forearms. Most men will have visible, dark hair (or signs of recently removed hair) on their hands and wrists, and sometimes knuckles.
2. Be suspicious of baggy clothing.
Your date may be trying to conceal a telltale bulge.
3. Look for an Adam’s apple.
Most men have a bump in the middle of their throat. Most women do not.
4. Observe shoulders and hips.
Men’s shoulders tend to be broader than their hips, while women’s hips and shoulders tend to be closer to the same width. Do not be fooled by shoulder pads.
5. Follow your date up a flight of stairs.
Take note of how she (or he) moves while ascending. Men tend to walk in a more “straight ahead” motion with minimal “wobbling” back and forth. Women tend to sway a bit from side to side, due to the position of their pelvises. Women also tend to lean forward slightly.
Be Aware
• Look for at least three of these characteristics before you draw conclusions about your date’s gender, then make your plans accordingly.
• Voice is not always a good indicator of gender-a low voice may simply be the result of hard living.

A friend of mine told me women have longer hair than gentlemen plus gals wear earrings.

Some guys grow hair on their faces. This is much less common in women.
Try having a long conversation. Guys will stop listening and lose interest if you go into lots of details about things. Women will constantly interrupt you.
