Guy/girl Him/her Dude/chick ????

What do you think that your car is ???? A guy? A girl? What do you refer to is as?

I know that my new car is a defenetly a DUDE. It just came out of my mouth when I had to refer to him to someone else. They thought it was wierd because they thought guys always refered to their car as her/she.

I guess its all in the feel. I thought my EG was a guy too. But an RX7 that I had and my last 5.0L were defenetly my favorite girls.

i used to call her my girl, but my last GF for some reason got a bit jealous. So i started calling my car "it" rather than he/she. i still on occasion will let a she slip out here and there.

its a disposable object... i think you have psychological issues when you start to have feelings for an inanimate object

mine is a girl. i call her "girl" and "baby" sometimes and i refer to her as "her" or "she". but i also call her akkb (pronounced like as if it were a word) and bluebearmobile...although, blue bear is a boy so that doesnt quite work.

So I guess anyone who was ever given something or inherited something (inanimate object) from someone extremely close to you that passed away, and that something made you have a tremendous amount of feeling when you see it...... deems you to have psychological issues.


you cant be serious.

All cars are girls. It's a scientific fact.

2 different concepts. a civic is hardly an object of sentiment

Ok so what about my 79 RX7 thats sitting in my best friends driveway. The car I learned to drive standard on, the first of many 7's that my father an I owned. And its also the car that my dad drove when he got divorced from my mom and was on his *** 14 years ago.

So to ask you a question, why cant the object of sentiment be a vehicle and if it was, why would you assume it to be a civic.
