The gender of non-living things.
 
> 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) 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 5,000
> years, but it's handy to have around.

> 10) 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.
