Lawrie,
Mainly because we don't use Quick Couple adapters up here. Our wall mounted faucets are male, and the female screws to them, and then the other end of the hose is male, allowing for female devices to be attached.

To prevent having to twist metres and metres of hose, only the 'nut' part of the female coupling turns, until it is tight, and that tightness ensures a seal against the hose or device.

Literally, if you do what I told you above, it'll work just fine. You'll need to modify your hoses, but it'll work out just fine, and which quick connect is faster, there isn't too much time spent doing this, either.

I'm blessed watching God do what He does best. I've had a few rough years, and I'm still not back to where I want to be, but I'm on the way and things are looking far better now than what they were!
