I tried this at an early age, but my mother shooed me away rather than capitalize on my interest to teach me. Gender-linked socialization strikes again...
Or simply the fact that my mother was immensely practical. She jumped at the chance to avoid doing it all herself! :-)
Too bad I don't like sports either. Otherwise I could've made quite the little feminist issue out of the whole thing. Instead, I just don't visit those people any more. Easiest all round.
(even though you aren't a Southerner ;-)
Well, maybe I can compensate with a few things. :-)
