Posted: 16 Sep 2010, 18:40
As an intellectual exercise a group of students was asked what sex would you allocate to a computer?
The class divided into male and female and asked to come up with answers.
The males answered;
A computer is definitely feminine because
1 no one but their creator understands their logic.
2 the native language they use to communicate with other computers in 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 your self spending lots of money on accessories for it.
The females answered;
A computer is male because
1 In order to do anything with them you have to turn them on.
2 they have a lot of data but still cannot think for them selves
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 realise that if you had waited a little longer you could have got a better model!
What do you think??????
