the gender of things

You may not know that many non-living items are actually male or female, for example :

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

2) Copiers -- They are Female, because once turned off, it takes a while to warm them up again. It's an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can wreak havoc if the wrong buttons are pushed.

3) Tyres -- Male, because they go bald and are often over-inflated.

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

5) Sponges -- female because they're soft, squeezable and retain water.

6) Web Pages -- Female, because they're always getting hit on.

7) Trains -- Male, because they use the same old lines to pick people up.

8) Egg Timers -- Female, because over time, the weight shifts to the bottom.

9) Hammers -- Male, because they haven't changed much over the last 5,000 years, but handy to have around.

10) The Remote Control -- Female...... Ha! You thought it'd be male. 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.
