If we rub a rod and a fabric made of the same material, would the rod become charged? Please explain.

If you rub a glass rod with a cloth, the charge produced on the glass rod is called positive, whereas when a plastic rod is rubbed with a cloth, the charge produced on the plastic rod is negative.
