Wait what even would you use that for??

And at what time of the year do people just suddenly say “huh I wish my cord was gay”??

There’s xmas lights you can daisy-chain. People put them the wrong way around and end up with the female connector going to the outlet. Rather than fixing their mistake, they try to have a male-to-male wire made, hence “at this time of the year”.

Back-feeding a generator into your house circuits. A very bad idea.

Wouldn't you connect a generator to your panel so the breaker could engage?

It really isn’t if you understand the wiring in your home

I have a volt inverter (110 <-> 220) that use that kind of cable. It has two female inputs and this cable, if you want to transform from 110 to 220 you connect the male to the 110 output on the wall to the 110 input in the transformer and then your 220v appliance on the other side. Use everything the other way around to transform 220 to 110.
