Kluger, The linux mascot was originally drawn by tigerr, I believe, (sorry can\'t remember his real name off the top of my head) and popular opinion renders him as a male penguin. Most of the times he pops up it is in a male persona. Take the game tuxedo t. penguin, tux racer, and so on.

I\'m not sure about the story you referred to.

Male.

It is kind of amazing how much popularity this post has considering the fact that it all started with a simple question: are you male or female?

By the way here in Canada hermaphrodites are relatively rare are tranvestites a bit less rare.

Anywho see you next time,
  Thomas
The body is but a vessel for the soul,
A puppet which bends to the soul\'s tyranny.
And lo, the body is not eternal,
For it must feed on the flesh of others,
Lest it return to the dust whence it came.
Therefore must the soul
Decieve, despise, and murder men.
A. J. Durai

\"By the way here in Canada hermaphrodites are relatively rare are tranvestites a bit less rare.\"  -  Yeah, I know!  What the heck is going on here in the US??

\"I\'m not sure about the story you referred to.\"  -  Here\'s the story as it\'s most often described

The logo of Linux is a penguin. Unlike other commercial products of computer operating systems, Linux doesn\'t have a formidable serious looking symbol. Rather Tux, as the penguin is lovingly called, symbolizes the care-free attitude of the total movement. This cute logo has a very interesting history. As put forward by Linus, initially no logo was selected for Linux. Once Linus went to the southern hemisphere on a vacation. There he encountered a penguin, not unlike the current logo of Linux. As he tried to pat it, the penguin bit his hand. This amusing incident led to the selection of a penguin as the logo of Linux sometime later.

I had read it with a specific gender before, but now I think that that story was made up...

Hmm, not sure if I ought to reply, but...

Nearly all hermaphrodites are sterile, and the most common reason is totally re-absorbed, um, male unmentionables.

Perhaps I shouldn\'t have posted this, since I know at least a few people here aren\'t exactly, err, mature enough.  :rolleyes:  Then again, perhaps it\'s just too gross...
