Same as the dish washer.
Washing machines have genders?
Where do you think new washing machines come from? The sturgeon brings them? Don't be ridiculous! They are far too heavy!
Also in German, there's a neutral gender which applies to diminutive nouns ending in -chen, which means that men are male (Der Mann), women are female (Die Frau), boys are male (Der Junge) and girls are neutral (Das Mädchen). Which is fun to learn for the first time lol.
OP, don’t you mean a rinsing machine?
It's even worse if your native language has genders for things, but the one you're learning has different genders for the same things.
