This verdict annoys me. What are they trying to say? That just because I happen to have a womb I must be terrible at parking? (I am terrible at parking.) Is the “female brain” really so predictable, so set in its ways, that it can be identified by an algorithm on the basis of just six questions? Or is it only my brain letting the feminist side down, tottering along in high heels and reading maps back-to-front?

It’s a wonder, really, that no one took umbrage at the brain test until now. It has been installed at the Science Museum for 16 years, apparently without controversy. But last week a picture of the interactive display – entitled “What sex is your brain?” and featuring a half-pink, half-blue “sex-o-meter” – went viral on Twitter. Neurologists suddenly rushed to denounce it as “junk science”, the Green Party called for its immediate removal on the grounds of sexism, and the Science Museum promised to “look again” at the exhibit to ensure it reflects “the latest scientific evidence”.
