I work alone. My computers and various legal databases typically bear the gender neutral name "You f*cking piece of sh*t!"

I have a pretty white Mixmaster that will take your arm off. Boy or girl?

I called my Subaru Justy "Justine." It could not have been otherwise. Same with a Miata. The Dukes of Hazzard called their Dodge Charger "The General Lee." That, too, fits.

"Mangler" is a unisex name...

Dig. I'm sure if I owned slinky Corvette or a Viper I'd be thinking of female names to match the curves.
