OK this is a silly question.
You've got banana plugs and jacks... which is the female and which male.
(I can find it both ways online.)

They are the same with most any other plug and jack. The hole is the
female and the part that is inserted into the hole is the male.

I understand male and female :^)
I guess I've always called these backwards though...
I've been calling the male part the jack...
Oh well.

A plug is almost always male. SMB connectors are perverted. Or
transgendered. Or something.

There's so much confusion on this topic that I try to make sure to get a
picture.
As an example, in radio control aircraft usage, a "male" connector is a
dingus with holes in it, that plugs into a hole in the receiver that has
pegs buried in it. So I look at the holes in the "male" connector and I
think "female", and at the pegs in the "female" connector and think
"male" -- but if I want to order the right thing, I make sure to go by
that community's language.
The connectors are confusing and I agree that a picture is the way toThere's so much confusion on this topic that I try to make sure to get a
picture.
BNC connectors are also confusing: The one that is
"obviously" female is typically designated male, and
vice-versa. Apparently the designation pertains to the
little inner pin or socket for the center conductor, not the
big outer shell that connects to the shield.

I don't think that people from San Francisco
"transgendered" in the same sentence without a "definitely not" in
between.
Isn't there some sort of cultural police down there that'll have your
balls -- uh, I mean, that'll inflict some politically correct form of
censure upon you?

There are some crazies that get press, but most people that I know,
straight and gay, have a sense of humor about themselves.
My nextdoor neighbor is gay. He lets me use his chain saw. A piece of
fence was rotten so we replaced it with a gate, so we can combine our
back yards and let the dogs run around. Lots are so small here (most are
24' wide) that people sometimes combine and share back yards.

To pull two not-at-random quotes about your respective cities:
Back before the crash of 08, when the Embedded Systems Conference would
give you an honorarium for speaking that was enough to cover travel costs
if you were frugal, I suggested that someone come to my talk "No", came
the answer "my employer doesn't pay for business trips to San Francisco
because they figure that it's all gay bars and strip joints".
Around the same time I was friends with a co-worker, a mechanical
engineer who originally hailed from Northern Louisiana. I mentioned at
one point about trips to New Orleans, and he said "I didn't get down
there that much -- folks in Northern Louisiana kinda view that part of
the world as a cesspit of depravity".
So, you moved from the Cesspit of Depravity on the Gulf to the Cesspit of
Depravity on the Pacific.
So, coincidence, or are salt water and depravity two of your must-meet
criteria for a place to live?

There are lots of gay bars (and our preference, Irish dive bars) but
fewer and fewer strip clubs. The strip clubs are all turning into
restaurants.
