Which side of the xlr cable goes into this mic?
Does the male or female end of the xlr adapter go into this mic? http://pro-audio.musiciansfriend.com/product/AKG-Perception-120-Condenser-Microphone?sku=271289
Thanks in advance! 
Little Dog and Lare are of course both right -- but allow me to (humbly) put it all together into one answer...
1. The XLR female end from a CABLE will plug into this mic.
2. But you can't use an ADAPTER (a word used later in your question) on this mic to (assuming) a 1/4" plug because this particular mic requires phantom power (which 1/4" jacks don't provide).

(added later)
I just saw your other question about using this mic through a 3-conductor mini plug adapter into a camcorder (I assumed wrong on what kind of adapter!). In that case, you might get phantom power from the camcorder, and it might even be passed to the right pins on the XLR -- but -- it will only be 5v, not the 48v this mic needs, so it's unlikely to work.
