[FONT="]If you're like most people, common everyday items[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]look inert to you. But what you may not know is that[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]many of them have a gender.[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]For example . . .[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Ziploc Bags = Male, because they hold everything[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]in but you can see right through them[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Copier = Female, because once turned off, it takes[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]a while to warm up. It's an effective reproductive[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]device if the right buttons are pushed, but can wreak[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]havoc if the wrong buttons are pushed[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Tire = Male, because it goes bald and often it's over inflated[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Hot Air Balloon = Male, because to get it to go[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]anywhere you have to light a fire under it . . .[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]and, of course, there's the hot air part[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Sponges = Female, because they're soft and squeezable and retain water[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Web Page = Female, because it's always getting hit on[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Subway = Male, because it uses the same old lines to pick people up[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Hourglass = Female, because over time, the weight[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]shifts to the bottom[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Hammer = Male, because it hasn't evolved much over[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]the last 5,000 years, but it's handy to have around[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]Remote Control = Female . .. Ha! You thought it'd[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]be male. But consider -- it gives a man pleasure,[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]he'd be lost without it, and while he doesn't always know[/FONT][FONT="]
[/FONT][FONT="]the right buttons to push, he keeps trying.[/FONT]
