      I am not an engineer, but I’ve heard hardware stores will refuse to sell anything to you if you are trying to make a cord that’s male on both ends due to that being a crazy dangerous fire hazard

      But still, plugs aren’t people anyway…

      On that note “Oh but a key that opens any lock is more impressive than a lock that opens for any key.”

      “Yes, but my vagina isn’t a lock, it’s a hole… and your penis isn’t a key, and it sure as hell isn’t unlocking me without my say so.”

        Assuming you plug it into the same receptacle or one that is on the same phase, nothing happens. Stupid for sure, don’t do that, but it’s already wired that way in the wall, you aren’t short circuiting anything with a cable like that (also assuming you didn’t mix up the neutral/hot wires when you made the cable). USA outlets at least. I don’t know about the rest of the world.

  • To answer the question implied ( how do lovers with non-hetero bits get it on? ) the answer is any way they can. The sex is not about making sure the parts fit but engaging in physical intimacy and expressing love (or at least extreme horniness) for each other, and so any given couple is going to figure something out, even if its frottage or oral or whatever.

      That’s really confusing for me since in German we have a seperated word for engaging in physical intimacy/extreme horniness that excludes sex. The closest to that in English would be to make out with someone.

        That’s the case for a lot of modern Christian ministries, though they’ll hum and haw about circumstances, such as if an infertile woman should have sex with her husband.

        The scholarly consensus regarding Paul’s proscriptions is that even childbearing is inappropriate since the apocalypse is imminent. That sex is only allowed to sate men whose lust burns too hot (or something to that effect.)

        Obviously, the apocalypse didn’t happen before that generation died, and Christians had to renegotiate with their dogma.

        It’s also noted that there’s no such thing as rape or consent at the time, in that in any sexual encounter, the dominating / penetrating individual is the one taking power and is presumed to have agency. So when two guys get it on, the top is guilty of adultery or fornication (and is killed for such sins) but the bottom is free of responsibility. He is killed anyway because the incident pollutes the land with bad spirit and requires the death to regain its purity (which is really rather chthonic for what becomes a very spirity dogma).

        There’s a lot of apologetics devoted to navigating this because otherwise modern Christians have to contend with the lack of consensual sex, the chattelization of women and active participation in institutionalized sex slavery (non-Hebrews captured in war were totally allowed to be sex slaves), so it’s all a mess.

    Why would electrical cables be biologically designed? They don’t evolve, they’re man made.

    What idiot out there thinks that iPhone is birthed from some sort of biological design womb?

      There’s also hermaphrodite connectors, connecting any way whatsoever. And then there’s connectors which are assigned male or female but when you look closely enough it’s not so clear any more: The general rule is that whenever a stiff conductor mates with a a springy conductor then the stiff one is male and the springy one female, but then have a look at e.g. DB connectors (serial, parallel, VGA cables) and you see that the ground/shielding is stiff on the side that is springy for all the signal lines, and the male connector thus completely envelops the female one.

      CEE 7/3 sockets (German) are unambigiously female, while CEE 7/5 sockets (French) have a male earth, and then you have bisexual plugs, CEE 7/7, mating with both.

        Isn’t the rule that the female connector should be closer to the power source and the male closer to the appliance? So you don’t accidentally shock yourself.

          Live conductors should never be exposed, but that doesn’t mean that they need to be female as in be the springy part, they can also be stiff conductors that are shielded somehow. Take say DIN 56905, hermaphrodite power cables for stage lighting and stuff

    I love jokes like these, other variants I’ve heard are

    “Libtard can you even tell me the difference between Sex and Gender if they’re REALLY two different things?” “Well it’s quite simple, you see the difference is that I didn’t have gender with your mother last night.”

    “There’s only two sexes!” “You’re right! There are only two sexes, the sex I have with your mom, and the sex I have with your dad.”

      Just FYI, telling them the difference between sex and gender is the difference between biology and psychology usually shuts them right up.

        That’s not really how yo mama jokes work, in an insult sense. They work by implying that suddenly you’re, socially speaking, their father, the rest is flourish. Like the maid uniform your mom wore last night.

  • The analogy with the plugs and sockets is so lame anyways.

    They want to compare a plug and a socket but the analogy falls apart once one takes a moment to realise that the penis analogy, a plug, is a receiver for electricity.

    Do eggcells suddenly travel up dudes dicks and deposit babies inside them?

    i don’t know if the thrust of the original original post was meant to be homophobic, or racist, or both.

      When two individuals love each other, they have fun in bed. This kind of fun is only meant for adults beacuse it is risky; it can hurt.

      All of this to say: I had fun in bed with your mom last night.
