Point in case: The statistics at the site said that Germans had the lowest "acceptance-rate" of all countries surveyed. Apparently the average German would accept an offer of 5. Gotta love that rational nation.
Hehe, yeah. And those french bastards want 15! No wonder they're always on strike and unsatisfied about their rights and privileges. Anyway I was kinda thinking between 35 and 40 on this one. Basically the only reason why someone would refuse anything over 1 would be because of spite. Although personally if I'd recieve anything less than 10 I'd refuse because that would mean that I screwed the other person 4+ times more than I screwed myself
And yeah, my empathy rocks. I guess someone could be horribly torturing you now right next to me and I'd calmly drink my coffee and type this message without really getting upset about it. Except showing a mild concern about cleaning the blood stains from the carpet afterwards
Well at least I'm not the person with most deformed fingers..

Elated, gleeful, gay, overjoyed, joyful, joyous, pleased, content, contented, merry, exultant, blissful, ecstatic, and jolly, if I recall correctly.

hmmm, for some reason i assumed the oponent was not aware of the rules at large, and all he knew is that you are to offer him a split of $50. i assumed he didn't know his refusal will result in none of them getting any money.

I am 50 to the male side?
what the hell type of scoring system is that?
anyway according to the survey I have an "average score for MEN".
Oh and as for the ultimatium question:
People will reject offers they do not deem is fair. Its quiet simply individuals are rational but not individiually rational. Individuals content with both social (group) and personal (individual) rationality. In this case in the ultimatium question and individual is willing to sacrafise a few dollars for the greater good of this group (by teaching people they need to play fair).
I forgot the exact economic term for this, but this is all new stuff (past 15 years) in the field of economics now heavily influenced by psychology.

By all means, no. However, your post made it sound as if it was somehow better to be a pre-op MTF-transsexual beastialist lesbian, than just a vanilla pre-op MTF-transsexual beastialist ("at least I prefer female faces").
