Probably right, Rose. They always had these figureheads on ships. And cars had badges that were often female. |

Hi, It's Rachel from Genes support- I'm just doing some testing but thought i'd add to your thread as I might know the answer! I remember a friend telling me this is because of the association with vessels (big empty spaces carrying people) and the womb....not 100% sure though. Have a lovely day everyone x |

Our cars are both male and femail depending on how we see them, currently my wifes C-Max is male "maxey" my Renualt is "Lucy" because the parcel shelf has loose elastic. They have to be both otherwise where would little cars come from?;-) |

The really odd thing about ships being called she is that in the past sailors considered it unlucky to have a woman on board. |
