What is the difference between a male and a female connector?
As with ports, the gender of a connector is determined by whether or not it has pins. For example, a D-sub connector is male if it has pins (i.e. a VGA connector), whereas a serial connector is female (a serial port on the motherboard is male [it has pins to receive the connector], and the connector has the holes in which the pins are inserted). There is a reason they refer to the meeting of male and female plugs "mating"! Don't think of it as what's being plugged in and what's receiving the plug, but rather whether or not the connector and ports have pins or holes to receive the pins.
How do you convert serial port key board or mouse to usb port?
Go to a computer accessories shop and look for the green USB to PS2 Mouse adapter. Or you can buy it online. See the picture at this link (check that the port matches your PC mouse port): http://www.rudyp.com/usbtops2moad.html IMPROVED: Please note the answer above is for converting a USB to PS2 connector, NOT USB to Serial Port. A USB to Serial Port adapter does not, to my knowledge, exist. So please verify if you want a PS/2 (small, round connector) or Serial Port (long, flat connection with many pins) Also, the color of the adapter may vary.
