Ever wondered the gender of a
photocopier? Wonder no more, the
answers to all your gender
questions are here.
是否想知道复印机的性别?不用再苦恼了，所有关于性别问题的答案都在这里。
You might not have known this,
but a lot of non-living objects
are either male or female.
你可能不知道这点，但是很多没有生命的物体不是男性就是女性
Below are some examples:
下面是一些例子
FREEZER BAGS: They are male,
because they hold everything in,
but you can see right through
them.
冷藏袋：他们是男性的，因为他们能容纳所有东西，并且表里如一。
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 ones.
复印机：复印机是女人，因为一旦关掉，需要花费一点时间才能让她再度暖起来，她是非常有效的复制机器，如果你按对了按钮的话，但是如果按错了按钮，她也会造成大破坏哦。
TYRES: Tyres are male, because
they go bald easily and are
often over-inflated.
轮胎：轮胎是男性，因为他很容易变秃，而且经常过度膨胀。
HOT AIR BALLOONS: Also a male
object, because to get them to
go anywhere, you have to light a
fire under them.
热气球：同样也是男性物品，因为你想让他带你去任何地方的话，必须在他下面点个火才行。
SPONGES: These are female,
because they are soft,
squeezable and retain water.
海绵：海绵是女性，因为她们很软，可以挤压并且能保持水分。
WEB PAGES: Female, because
they're constantly being looked
at and frequently getting hit
on.
网页：女性，因为她们总是被人看，并且经常被点击。
TRAINS: Definitely male,
because they always use the same
old lines for picking up people.
火车：当然是男性的啦，因为他们总是在相同的老地方接人。
EGG TIMERS: Egg timers are
female, because, over time, all
the weight shifts to the bottom.
煮蛋计时器：煮蛋计时器是女性，因为一旦超时，所有的重量都会囤积在底部。
HAMMERS: Male, because in the
last 5000 years, they've hardly
changed at all, and are
occasionally handy to have
around.
锤子：男性，因为在过去的5000年，他们几乎一点没有改变，而且只是偶尔在身边可用而已。
THE REMOTE CONTROL: Female. 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.
遥控器:
女性，也许你可能认为它是男性，但是你想想看：它很容易就给男人带来快乐，如果没有遥控器，男人会迷失，并且男人并不总是知道他要按哪个键，他只是不停地尝试而已。
