Inanimate objects?

Have you ever stopped to think whether the inanimate things around us also have genders? Believe it or not, they do! Check out these things we use in our daily lives, who would have though!?!

Ziploc bags are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.

Copiers 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.

A tire is male, because it goes bald and it's often over-inflated.

A hot air balloon is 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.

Sponges are female, because they're soft, squeezable and retain water.

A web page is female, because it's always getting hit on.

A subway is male, because it uses the same old lines to pick people up.

An hourglass is female, because over time, the weight shifts to the bottom.

A hammer is male, because it hasn't changed much over the last 5,000 years, but it's handy to have around.

A remote control is female. Ha! You thought it'd be male, didn't you? 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!

    Ok, I see how you are... Well, just off the top of my head:

    Yahoo Answers is female, because just when you think everything's going smoothly, all the rules change and you're left out in the cold.

    The phone company is female, just one little flash of lightning, and bang! No hookup.

    Beer is male, it's reliable, does exactly what it's advertised to do, and if you start hanging with another beer, it doesn't really care.

    A parachute is male, because you give it one good pull, and it's up and ready to get the job done.
