It’s the silly season, so in the absence of any real news, you have to make it up (not me, but other people).
Confused.com appears to be at a bit of a loose end. It reports that 25% of drivers name their car. Most see it as female.
I must confess, back in the days when I had cars which were likely to go wrong at the most inconvenient times, such cajoling as “come on, girl” and “come on, babe” did escape my lips on more than one occasion.
I can’t imagine for one moment why something which was stubborn, unreliable, contrary, liable to break down, and so on wore a feminine persona better than it did a masculine one.
