Forks are female and knives are male

[CoheedandCambria]

And spoons are female too.
Or is it just me?

I also think letters and numbers are gendered and some of them have quite specific personalities. Eg. Both G and H are older matriarchal women.

I am aware I am coming across as an absolute loon.

1 - male
2 - female
3 - female
4 - male
5 - female
6 - female
7 - female
8 - male (despite its curves)
9 - male
10 - male
11 - female (despite being made of 1s which are male!)
12 - female

I could go on

Female, like a queen.

Monday is green
Tuesday bright yellow
Wednesday blue
Thursday dark yellow
Friday red
Saturday pink
Sunday purple

It was revelationary to discover some people don’t see them as this colours, I genuinely just thought everyone must see them this way.

And forks are definitely female and knives male.

Oh and another thing numbers go up to 12 then turn right and keep going to 112 where they take another 90 degree turn..

Thursday and October are the same

Never before have I been so glad that I am my own kind of odd.

Big forks - men
Salad forks - boys
Big spoons - women
Small spoons - girls
Knives - elderly men/butlers

That's what I realized while washing dishes in first grade. (1966) My flatware performed water ballet and diving feats. My mother could never figure out why it took so long for me to wash the dishes.

I told my husband about this and he thinks I'm nuts. Stupid fork! 😂😂

The French agree with you. Une fourchette and une cuilliere are a female fork and spoon respectively. Un couteau is a male knife.

Yes! Even tablespoons.

I'm not sure about cutlery, but cars have faces and I bought a new expensive car aged 45 based solely on the fact it looked less grumpy than the others on offer.

Yes, Wednesdays are red.

It's a bit like days of the week having colours! I love it.

God, so this is what's to blame for the French language

Here's me thinking I'm the only sane one on this thread, but is it coincidence my memory is shit?

that's Synesthesia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia

are you autistic?

So the poll basically says 45% don't have it, and 55% do. Interesting! Though I suppose if you clicked on this link it's likely cos you relate.

(And 45% came here to say you're bonkers! 😂)

No no no. 4 is yellow.

You are wrong because knives are female, as are odd numbers and left. They have a clean, trustworthy feel, like fresh air and blue skies

Right, forks and even numbers are smug and not to be trusted, like stale air in an office block or plane.

Number 2 is the exception because it's prime so it's probably reliable.

I haven't got a soul, but I have a kind of 'essence' which is orange.

Oh my goodness yes!!! October is definitely the "Thursday" of the calendar....

Do you have synthesia? I have it diagnosed and days/letters/numbers have colours.
Monday as a whole is red, but M is orange-yellow, O is white, N is yellow, D is blue, A is red and Y is yellow. But Monday is red.

I might have, I have never really looked into it, I assumed that everyone thought the same!

I have just had a conversation with my Mum, DH and teenage son. Mum and husband are speechless, son has told me Wednesday is red. Dad just rang (wondering where Mum is) - I asked him what colour Monday is .. he said "23" ...😂

No way. 4 is green.
2 is yellow because it's a cute yellow duck 🙂

The number 3 and the letter C both have the same vibes as the small angry girl from the Moomins.

I am enjoying how mental we all are.

Little My?

Thank you, yes.

The M3 is a greenish yellow shade. M4 is black. M1 is dark blue. M40 is dark green.
Thursday is so definitely brown.
Sunday smells of pepper.
