Male Or Female?
Thursday, February 5th, 2009 10:49 amYou might not have known this, but a lot of non -living objects are actually either male or female. Here are some examples:
FREEZER BAGS:
They are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.
PHOTOCOPIERS:
These are female, because once turned off; it takes a while to warm them up again. They are an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can also wreak havoc if you push the wrong buttons.
TYRES:
Tyres are male, because they go bald easily and are often over inflated
HOT AIR BALLOONS:
Also a male object, because to get them to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under their bum.
SPONGES:
These are female, because they are soft, squeezable and retain water.
WEB PAGES:
Female, because they're constantly being looked at and frequently getting hit on.
TRAINS:
Definitely male, because they always use the same old lines for picking up people.
EGG TIMERS:
Egg timers are female because, over time, all the weight shifts to the bottom.
HAMMERS:
Male, because in the last 5000 years, they've hardly changed at all, and are occasionally handy to have around.
THE REMOTE CONTROL:
Female. Ha! You probably thought it would be male, but consider this: It easily gives a man pleasure, he'd be lost without it, and while he doesn't always know which buttons to push, he just keeps trying.

Date: 2009-02-05 08:09 pm (UTC)KIDNEYS — female, because they always go to the bathroom in pairs.
PENLIGHT — male, because it can be turned on very easily, but isn’t very
bright.
TIRE — male, because it goes bald and often is over-inflated.
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.
SPONGES — female, because they are soft and squeezable and retain water.
WEB PAGE — female, because it is always getting hit on.
SHOE — male, because it is usually unpolished, with its tongue hanging
out.
COPIER — female, because once turned off, it takes a while to warm up.
Because it is an effective reproductive device when the right buttons are
pushed. Because it can wreak havoc when the wrong buttons are pushed.
ZIPLOC BAGS — male, because they hold everything in, but you can always
see right through them.
SUBWAY — 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 and is good for killing bugs.
Just saw it on my F-List and it is almost the same :))
And I don't need to post something you already know in my LJ for you to read ;)
