Ok guys. Last time it was history.
Today's lesson from The Teach. is - English.

There are basically four types of noun - Female i.e. auntie - Male i.e. King - Neuter i.e. baby - and common i.e. table.

However, did you know it was possible to ascribe gender even to common nouns?

This is what I mean:


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 ****

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.
