How does one identify if a pumpkin flower is a male or a female?

How does one identify if a pumpkin flower is a male or a female?

This is a skill one needs when you are indoors and too lazy to step out and check the flowers.
The boy flower is always pointing up and a girl flower is always facing down and is very closer to the ground.

bhuta?

Anvi asked her mom: "Do I look like a bhuta?"

And her mom was laughing her guts out. Now what is a bhuta? In our mother tongue, there is a slang/saying 'bhuta sarkhi diste' i.e. you look like a ghost. bhut = ghost.
So our mixed language kids combine words and ask funny sounding questions.. "Do I look like a bhuta?"
