What do you usually see your robots as? Are they male, female or genitally neutral?
The reason I'm asking is that I'm not sure what my robot project should be stated as :P What do you think would fit for a hexapod? I just think it's so funny when people see their robots as female and call them things like babe, sexeh, and pretty, rather than cool, awsome and neat :P
-
Gramatically, machines are females, as in cars, boats, and planes... I would assume that robots follow suit.
-
I usually refer to mine as "he" or "it"... :)
-
with the ammount of time i spent hovering over my robots brains in the last week, it better be a she, and she better love me for it :P
-
for r/c robots i would call them nutural
but for robots with programing that you made i would call it a she
it's just not right for a guy to spend months creating a guy
-
I call all my robots 'it'
Or depending on my mood, and what my robot is doing (or not doing), sometimes I call it 'stupid robot' . . .
;D

true, i often say things i cannot mention here, especialy when i found out the only board in my budget is out of stock ! >:( >:(
-
It depends on the shape. Most of robots I call 'it' but AI-BOT's android is definately a 'she'. Small humanoids are 'he'.
-
I call my robot "the one" because I've only made one in my life. I guess "the one" doesn't really fit the $50 robot, but oh well I call it O Gracious One, Your Imminence, and it never appreciates it. That's why it's disassembled in a box now. Haha!

I figured this robot had relevance to this topic . . .

Right now it's and "it", or maybe "pile o' scrap".
And of course the fact that it isnt working yet is entirely "it's" fault.
It will graduate to "she" when it can get off it's dead butt and get me a beer.

i think this robot is a guy
