Isn't the rule that the female connector should be closer to the power source and the male closer to the appliance? So you don't accidentally shock yourself.

Live conductors should never be exposed, but that doesn't mean that they need to be female as in be the springy part, they can also be stiff conductors that are shielded somehow. Take say DIN 56905, hermaphrodite power cables for stage lighting and stuff
