Gender assigned to objects
If you're like most people, common everyday items look inert to you. But what you may not know is that many of them have a gender. For example:
1. Ziploc Bags - Male, because they hold everything in but you can see right through them.
2. Copier - Female, because once turned off, it takes a while to warm up. 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 often it's 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 and 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 evolved much over the last 5,000 years, but it's handy to have around.
10. Remote Control - Female......Ha Ha! You thought it'd be male. But consider - 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.
