    Also there is a grammatical rules that say, I think whe you use verb, that the masculin win over the feminin...
    I used to know french averagely well... Maybe the rule you mean is "When talking about a group of people from both genders you refer to them as male"? That's how it is in greek, and it would make sense if it was the same.
    I may not remember french so well, but I doubt verbs can be either masculine or feminine (correct me if I'm mistaken).

    Yer that what I meant by verb stuff, the group of people thingy, when using verb if it is a group of women it's "elles aiment...", a group of men "ils aiment...", but if there is one man in a group of women then it's "ils"... well it is how i remember it...

    I'll nominate the postman for my work. He seems friendly but like he could snap at any moment.

    Not sure about postal worker of the week though. I've never seen the one here so could be male or female.

    The woman who does my post.

    When i drove up the street today she was posting letters. Stopped to chat to my mum for a couple of mins and she came walking up to ask us "Is this (street name)?"

    Was gonna say "No, this is (random street name)" to see if she panicked but my mum butted in ;(

    Postman Pat ran over his cat.
    Blood and guts went flying,
    Postman Pat was crying,
    Now he's got red wheels to match his van.

    Everybody knows, he wears his sister's clothes,
    Everybody laughs when he waves to greet them,
    Mayyyyybe, you can never be sure,
    There'll be bras, panties, suspenders through your door.
