Google got my gender wrong, too.
Here's my full list:
Arts & Entertainment - Humor
Arts & Entertainment - TV & Video - Sci-Fi & Fantasy Shows
Computers & Electronics - Computer Security
Computers & Electronics - Programming
Computers & Electronics - Software - Business & Productivity Software
Computers & Electronics - Software - Operating Systems - Mac OS
Pets & Animals - Pets - Cats
Pets & Animals - Pets - Dogs
Shopping - Apparel - Casual Apparel - T-Shirts
Shopping - Apparel - Costumes
World Localities - North America - USA - South (USA) - Kentucky
Demographics - Age - 25-34
Demographics - Gender - Male
Some interesting points here aside from the incorect gender, as well:
1. I've only had this computer for about 2wks.
2. In that time, I don't recall having consulted Google in any way regarding my dog or my cat, but it knows I have both... kind of disturbing.
3. Apparently one good search for inspiration/ideas about a LEGO minfig costume is enough to get costumes dumped into shopping categories.... but not LEGO.
4. Given that they tend to dump some things into ad preferences after only a casual search (or out of thin air in the case of the dog/cat), I'm surprised the "Programming" category doesn't have a more specific breakdown.
