I'm writing a descriptive essay about a bird, which is a metaphor of my cell phone. So far, I have been using the pronoun "it" when describing the bird/cell phone; however, it feels awkward as the bird clearly has a personal connection to me, and the essay is written in the first person. I was thinking instead of using the pronoun it, I should use he or she although I have been debating whether to personify my cell phone as a male or female. Any suggestions/thoughts?
