computer gender

Recommended Posts

Hibo   

It cracked me upwhen I saw it..so what is better than sharing it with my nomadz down here....so draw ur own conclusions!

 

A language instructor was explaining (to her class) that in French, nouns, unlike their English counterparts, are grammatically designated as masculine or feminine.

 

 

"House," in French, is feminine - "la maison."

 

"Pencil," in French, is masculine - "le crayon."

 

One puzzled student asked "What gender is 'computer'?"

 

The teacher did not know and the word wasn't in her French dictionary. So

for fun she split the class into two groups, appropriately enough, by gender

and asked them to decide whether "computer" should be a masculine or feminine noun.

 

Both groups were required to give four reasons for their recommendation.

 

 

 

The men's group decided that computers should definitely be of the feminine gender ("la computer"), 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 retrireview.

 

4.As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

 

 

 

The women's group however, concluded that computers should be

masculine("le computer") because:

 

 

1. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on.

 

2.They have a lot of data but they are still clueless.

 

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

ARE the problem.

 

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

Defenetly Computers are female

 

They look nice and shiny until you bring them home.

 

The best part of having one is the games you can play.

 

They'll do whatever you say if you push the right buttons.
