If you're like most people, common everyday items look inert to
you. But what you may not know is that many have a gender. For
example..
Freezer bags - Male, because they hold everything in but you can
see right through them.
Photocopier - Female, because once turned off, it takes a while to
warm up. It's an effective reproductive device if the right buttons
pushed, but can wreak havoc, if the wrong buttons are pushed.
Tyre - Male, because it goes bald and often it's over
inflated.
Hot Air Balloon - Male, because to get it to go anywhere you have
to light a fire under its arse and, of course, there's the hot
part.
Sponges - Female, because they're soft and squeezable and retain
water.
Web page - Female, because they're always getting hit on.
London Underground - Male, because it uses the same old lines to
pick people up.
Hourglass - Female, because over time, the weight shifts to the
bottom.
Hammer - Male, because it hasn't evolved much over the last 5,000
years, but it's handy to have around.
Remote control - Female... 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.
