1) Ziploc Bags -- are Male, because they hold everything in,
but you can see right through them.

2) 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.

3) Tires -- are Male, because they go bald and are often over-inflated.

4) Hot Air Balloons -- are Male, because, to get them to go anywhere,
you have to light a fire under it, and of course, there's the hot air part.

5) Sponges -- are Female, because they're soft,
squeezable and retain water.

6) Web Pages -- are Female, because they're always getting hit on.

7) Subways -- are Male, because they use the same old lines to pick people up.

8) Hourglasses -- are Female, because over time, the weight shifts to the bottom.

9) Hammers -- are Male, because they haven't changed much over the last 5,000 years, but are handy to have around.
