Gender assignment is the top of the slippery slope , at the murky bottom of which resides "Vehicle Naming"

Striple is a girl called Meth. She's highly addictive, loves to be ridden for hours and still provides a smile each time after years. Loves to be kept singing / screaming, is ridiculously flickable / nimble, loves to ride me round the bends but don't all blokes love it that way really.

Gixxer is Gerald. He's slow, tired and grumpy to get going. But when nagged a little more, responds with utter fuck you RAGE!

If you are going to ride it until it screams then it's gotta be female.

Non-hetero types can call it what they please and Hellcat doesn't count because standing on testicles in heels is not right!

Mine are, and always will be, Lasses. Names loosely based on reg plate. My mum used to name her cars in the same fashion, but using male names, I just carried it on with bikes and lasses names.

I currently have Victoria (P*** VTY) and Rebekah (DG** RKJ). The couple before that were Polly (PO11 ***) and Daisy (PO** DSV).

I don't care in the slightest what people call their bikes or how and if they assign a gender to them.

My little bit of weirdness is that whenever I walk into my workshop and turn the light on, I always say "morning mate" to my bike as I put my mug of tea/coffee down.

It just seems like a bit of a violation to leap into the shed, reach into the toolbox and then lay a big cold spanner on the bike without so much as a hello first. They call it foreplay don't they? Laughing

What did I tell you.
You see where it leads!
To shameless anthropomorphism.

Wrongness, wrongness.

Whilst you're a little confused about my entertainment preferences, you're absolutely correct on that front.
I would worry that they might pop like some ugly blood blister, and make a mess on the flooring.

A bit of blood on the floor pales into insignificance if thinking about what could happen. Laughing

You'll be pleased to know that you can combine an interest in electric shocks with an interest in CBT.

We Found 20,002 Clips With "ELECTRIC CBT"

Shocked

They range from "that must really hurt" to "wtf is wrong with you, that's not healthy and you will end up injuring yourself in a serious and probably permanent way".

2min 16s.

I couldn't do it! Crying or Very sad

Do truckers assign a gender to their trucks? Do Chinese truckers assign a gender to their trucks?

It's their second male truck!!

"In 2013 after the tragic murder of Lee Rigby, the famous haulage firm, Eddie Stobart named their truck to honour the 25-year-old soldier. This was the second time ever that an Eddie Stobart truck was named after a man. The first one was named Valentino after the Italian racing legend Valentino Rossi. The usual green and red Eddie Stobart trucks are mostly named after females. Therefore it is a rare honour for a man to have a truck named after him."

I honestly thought you were taking the piss, why would that be an honour/tribute Neutral

I thought it was a nice tribute, as well as a convenient play on the word "Rig"
