> Any significant text (just a few paragraphs) has enough clues to predict a speaker or writer's gender with considerable confidence.

Do you have any examples of this?

Not saying I don't believe you, but unless the text contains something very obvious (e.g. "my wife"), I often can't tell if the writer is a man or a woman.

It's much easier to tell in Italian, French or Spanish, for example, all languages where the gender of the speaker is baked into most sentences.
