Fair point Onlqqker...
but, it IS a male connector, or, its counterpart IS a female connector and there is nothing that will make me change that terminology.
"Excuse me, gender-neutral person, please pass me a sticky-out connector..."
I suppose you could call them inlet and outlet...
Frankly, I'm fed-up with all this so-called political correctness...I have an acquaintance who is gender-confused, and he/she refuses to address me as Pirate, like many do, because apparently, I'm not actually his/her view of what a Pirate should be, so consequently it is an incorrect label blah, blah, blah...
Fekoff!
I have absolutely no problem with people who have different views on gender, I'm just tired fof being bombarded with new "rules"...I risk offending because I don't keep up with the changes and trends. Give me a break, I'll do my best, and never intend to offend.
I don't know what is in vogue for people with dark skin. Is it coloured, people of colour, black...it seems to change with the wind. I never describe people by the colour of their skin anyway.
However, this thread is going a bit off-topic!
One day I may tell you a funny story about a case in Glasgow Sheriff Court...but not right now.
However, I can reveal that a former client of mine who was born in Pakistan, and who I saw many times over a number of years, once came to my office and when I opened my internal office door and beckoned him in with a cheery "Hello Mr Singh!" he approached in a theatrical, hesitant way, squinting at me from the reception area and said "Is that you Mr R?"
"yes, of course" I replied...
He shrugged, smiled, and said
"Oh, sorry, but all you white guys look the same to me!"
I miss him...
