Quite some time ago, my husband asked me to drop in at the hardware store and pick up a few pipe fittings and gave me a note specifying the type and size. When I asked the clerk for assistance, he inquired: "Male or Female?"
I didn't know how to answer. I assumed my husband was NOT planning on breeding them, but I purchased both genders anyway.
What do hardware stores do today? Do they stock all the perversions of the ever proliferating gender choices or do they simply stick with the traditional Male and Female and provide Hack-Saws and Welding Supplies to enable customers to become Politically Correct Plumbers in the privacy of their homes?
