Sounds like someone is getting a little PC here to me. I've addressed my personal vehicles and my race vehicles with some names other than "she", but those words won't pass the community standards test here.

I've called mine a few he names before, but not in polite conversation.

Are we not the superior being?

In these languages, most common nouns are aligned a feminine gender, cars, boats, etc.. Seasons, planets, many animals, certain other objects are almostalways masculine.. I guess it's probably a hold over from that....

Thank you, interesting factoid!

As I recall Tova Borgnine would call her fragrance Tova by ""she"". The scent was devine but after the company was sold it wasn't the same.

Because of the body style. Boat, plane, car.

It did change. I read they replaced expensive ingredients with cheaper ones.

For years it was "He". "We've come a long way baby".

Would you say on the handbag, he's a beauty, or he's handsome, can't wait to get him home.

This post getting silly

Because ""she"" is beauty always.

Hurricanes with masculine names should be himmacanes.

""Hissacanes."" His and hers.
