A Nigeria French Teacher was explaining to her class that in French, unlike English, nouns are classified as either masculine or feminine.
E.g. 'house' is feminine = la maison,
'Pencil' is masculine = le crayon'
A student asked, what gender is computer? Instead of giving the answer,
The teacher split the class into 2 groups, male and female and asked them to decide for themselves whether computer should be a masculine or feminine noun.
Each group was asked to give four reasons for the recommendations. The men's group four recommendation for a feminine computer are:
No one but their creator understands their internal logic.
The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else.
Even the smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for immediate later retrieval. And...
As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.
Thinking that they will surly win. The women's group, however, recommended that computers should be masculine (le computer), because:
In order to do anything with them, you have to turn them on.
They have a lot of data but still can't think for themselves.
They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time, they ARE the problem, And...
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 class teacher is still in dilemma to select the winner.
Dear steemits please give your opinion to narrow down who the winner is*.
