You may not know this but many non-living
things have a gender.

1) Ziploc Bags are Male, because they
hold everything in, but you can see
right through them.

2) Copiers are Female, because once
turned off; it takes a while to warm
them up again. 


3) A Tyre is Male, because it goes bald
and it's often over inflated.


4) A Hot Air Balloon is Male, because,
to get it to go anywhere, you have to
light a fire under it, and of course,
there's the hot air part.

5) Sponges are Female, because
they're soft, squeezable and
retain water.


6) A Web Page is Female, because
it's always getting hit on.


7) A Subway is Male, because it
uses the same old lines to
pick people up.


8) An Hourglass is Female, because
over time, the weight shifts
to the bottom.


9) A Hammer is Male, because it
hasn't changed much over the last
5,000 years, but it's handy
to have around.


10) A Remote Control is Female.

Ha! You thought it'd be Male, didn't you?
But consider this - it gives a man pleasure,
he'd be lost without it, and while he doesn't
always know the right buttons to push,
he keeps trying!
