> You may not know that many non-living things have a gender;
> For example...
>
> 1) Ziploc 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) 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) Hourglass -- Female, because over time, the weight shifts to the
>bottom.
>
> 8) Hammer -- Male, because it hasn't changed much over the last 5,000
>years, but it's handy to have around.
>
> 9) 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.
