You may not know that many non-living things have a gender.
For example:
1) Ziploc bags - Male They are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.
2) Copiers - Female 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) Tire - Male because it goes bald and it's often over-inflated.
4) Hot Air Balloon - 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 -- Female because they're soft, squeezable and retain water.
6) Web Page - Female because it's always getting hit on.
7) Subway - Male because it uses the same old lines to pick people up.
8) Hourglass - Female because over time, the weight shifts to the bottom.
9) Hammer - Male because it hasn't changed much over the last 5000 years, but it's handy to have around.
10) Remote Control -- Female. Yeah, 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.
