Why not something like this:

class Person(models.Model):
    @classmethod
    def male(cls):
        return cls.objects.filter(gender='M')

    @classmethod
    def female(cls):
        return cls.objects.filter(gender='F')

    name = models.CharField(maxlength=20)
    gender = models.CharField(maxlength=1)

instead of defining a 'female' and 'male' custom managers as is
illustrated in the docs? Whenever I need to define 'table level'
functionality, I've always gone with the above method rather than
bother with a custom manager. What am I missing out on?
