I am a stupid end user. But I've never found an instance where I needed male to male cords.

In general? Off the top of my head I remember these male to male cables.

  • Ethernet cables
  • telephone cables when they were a thing
  • audio cables of different varieties
  • optical cables
  • coaxial cables when they were a thing
