Many languages assign gender to their words, such as French, Spanish, Italian, where words are masculine or feminine. English does not do this, but if it did, what gender would some of the words turn out to be, and why? This list presents a few – you can add more in the comments, as there are sooo many possibilities…

Male or Female? Here are some examples – what would you add to the list? Enter your suggestions in the comments….
10. FREEZER BAGS
They are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.
9. South Dakota Foundation Repair contractor . PHOTOCOPIERS
Female for sure: once turned off, it takes a while to warm them up again. And, while they are effective reproductive devices if the right buttons are pushed, but can also wreak havoc if you push the wrong buttons.
8. TIRES
Tires are male, because they go bald easily and are often over inflated.
7. HOT AIR BALLOONS
Also a male object, because to get them to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under their butt.

6. SPONGES
These are female, because they are soft, squeezable and retain water.
5. WEB PAGES
Female, because they’re constantly being looked at and frequently getting hit on.
4. TRAINS
Definitely male, because they always use the same old lines for picking up people.
3. EGG TIMERS
Egg timers are female because, over time, all the weight shifts to the bottom.
2. HAMMERS
Male, because in the last 5000 years, they’ve hardly changed at all, and are occasionally handy to have around.
