Gender.........

[jnette, ASN, EMT-I]

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. :rotfl:
