What’s The Gender of the Computer?

By Zemog Xilef Sevet

Computer and human beings have something in common. The latter has blood that runs in a vessel called veins that carries it to the heart. Computers also have blood called current that runs in a vessel called wires that carries it to and fro the heart, power supply. If humans don’t have a brain, he/she can not work, communicate or synchronized everything within his/her system. Same with computers, if it doesn’t have a CPU, it can not work, communicate or synchronized its accessories.

Human needs scratch pads or paper for him to store anything because his brain can not consume everything. Computer uses memories to store big files every time it processes since the registers are not big enough to store everything. We also need writing materials just like computers that need a printer to express what is on its mind.

Human beings has gender, whether male or female, what about computers? Computer is a she! Why? Because she is moody. Through experience, computers are very moody when you fix her. Why? I do not know! Sometimes when you fix a computer it will take you until midnight to fix her and still you can’t understand why she will not work until you decide to sleep. The next day, you turned it on, do some settings and it will work! What a mess of time . Just like females, sometimes you don’t understand why she’s like that.

So my conclusion is… Computer is a female.
