Male/female brain

This is totally trivial – imagine you’re standing at the back of an estate car putting something in the boot.The boot’s almost full,so you put the object in the position nearest you,so it’s behind the number plate when the boot’s shut.Now describe where you put it.Hubby says the back of the car and I say the front of the boot,and we both think we’re being totally logical.Where do you say it is ?
