Is a PC male or female?

Recommended Posts

Freddie sent me this too :) . Brilliant :lol: (apologies to the blokes on the forum :wink: ).

 

A SPANISH Teacher was explaining to her class that in Spanish, unlike English, nouns are designated as either masculine or feminine.

 

'House' for instance, is feminine: 'la casa.'

'Pencil,' however, is masculine: 'el lapiz.'

 

A student asked, 'What gender is 'computer'?'

 

Instead of giving the answer, the teacher split the class into two

groups, male and female, and asked them to decide for themselves whether computer' should be a masculine or a feminine noun.. Each group was asked to give four reasons for its recommendation.

 

The men's group decided that 'computer' should definitely be of the feminine gender ('la computadora'), because:

 

1.. No one but their creator understands their internal logic;

 

2 The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else;

 

3. Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long term memory for possible later retrieval; and

 

4. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself

spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

 

(THIS GETS BETTER!)

 

The women's group, however, concluded that computers should be Masculine ('el computador'), because:

 

1. In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on;

 

2. They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves;

 

3. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they ARE the problem; and

 

4. As soon as you commit to one, you realize that if you had waited a little longer, you could have gotten a better model..

 

The women won.

I think they are female:

 

HARD-DISK Woman

She remembers everything you say and do, FOREVER!

 

WINDOWS Woman:

Everyone knows that she can't do anything right, but you can't live without her.

 

EXCEL Woman

They say she can do a lot of things but you mostly use her for only four of your basic needs.

 

SCREENSAVER Woman

She is good for nothing functional, but at least she is exciting, colourful, and lots of fun!

 

INTERNET Woman

Difficult to access and hard to keep running!!!

 

SERVER Woman

Claims to be available to you, but Always busy when you need her.

 

MULTIMEDIA Woman

She has a way of making horrible things look very beautiful.

 

E-MAIL Woman

Out of every ten things she says, eight are plain nonsense.

 

VIRUS Woman

Also known as "WIFE"; when you are least expecting her, she shows up, installs herself, and starts gobbling up all your resources. If you try to uninstall her, you will lose almost every thing. If you don't try to uninstall her, you will still have nothing.
