  • Fair enough, who am I to judge. It's similar in german but I find it weird when I read it in english. As much as I love my bikes, they're still inanimate objects and imo he or she are reserved for living beings. Needless to say that I would find it equally awkward when women or homsexual men referred to their bikes as 'he'.

  • Yes, as 'macchina' (as well as 'bicicletta' [bike]) are both female terms.

    But yeah, I think I never heard of women referring to their bikes or cars as 'he'.
