Last weekend, my officemate (who happens to be male) and I 
rearranged our computer room, and re-did all the cabling 
for the terminals.  The security guard wandered in, watched
what I was doing (punching wires down on a patch panel) for
a few minutes, and then said, "Gail, you were born to be a
man."  

Right.

P.S.  I reported this comment verbatim to our company security
person.  I'm happy to say that he was almost as offended by
it as I was.
