Want to impress your friends?
Here’s how you can tell the difference between a
male crab (“jimmy’’) and a female crab (“sook”):
Turn them over and examine the apron — the flap on
the white underside of the crab. Jimmies (top illustration) have an
inverted T-shaped apron that resembles the Washington
Monument. Sooks (bottom illustration) have a bell-shaped apron that
resembles the dome of the U.S. Capitol.
