Default Gender Pronouns for Piping Trades, Mechanics, Etc

With all the hoopla about gender pronouns being so trendy and progressive and all I figure that its high time that I stop using 'male' and 'female' when describing pipe fittings, nuts, bolts, tools and such. These objects have yet to self-determine their sexuality so I figure that a group consensus would be the appropriate way to decide on the new names. What if a pipe wants to be a female fitting? What if a female fitting want to be a pipe? What if a fitting such as a street elbow (which is already both male and female) wants any or all of its private bits re-designated?

Old name - New Name. Tools, parts or whatever. Give me your best!
