skysprite 0 #1 July 7, 2007 Is Death a man or a woman? Reason I ask is the funny skydiving quote thing talking about going up on death's doorstep, ringing his doorbell, then running away (it always pisses him off) usually uses masculine pronouns (as outlined above) when I see it. What happened to equal opportunity?? Just wondering. Please vote and discuss. I suppose I am just a wee bit bored tonight. ~skysprite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zenister 0 #9 July 13, 2007 Quotein the english language, when personifying something that is abstract (such as death), one uses masculine pronouns. when personifying an abstract the speaker uses whatever gender terms are meaningful to them, its part of the whole 'personification' process. there is no 'standard' for English. Nature for example is just as 'abstract' as Death, however is traditionally personified as Female. "Mother Nature" Death? most definately female. why? go read "the sound of her wings"____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
