A female housing ( 20 ) has a resiliently deformable lock arm ( 38 ), whereas a male housing ( 10 ) is provided with an interlocking portion ( 13 ). During the connection of the two housings ( 10, 20 ), the lock arm ( 38 ) is temporarily deformed while being held in sliding contact with the interlocking portion ( 13 ). When the two housings ( 10, 20 ) are properly connected, the lock arm ( 38 ) is restored resiliently to engage the interlocking portion ( 13 ). A front surface ( 14 ) of the interlocking portion ( 13 ) to face the lock arm ( 38 ) during a connecting process is arcuate. Thus, only a widthwise middle ( 14 a) of the interlocking portion ( 13 ) slides in contact with the lock arm ( 38 ) during a connecting operation.
