I know how to use a hammer and also my mum knows, lol! I think it all depends on how were you taught at home... My mum almost always cooks, but my dad also helps with the cooking and he's actually good at it.
I hate stereotypes... I think they are totally nonsense, I mean, everybody should behave authentically and it doesn't matter if a boy wants to be a dancer and a girl a pilot or something like that.
See you later!  _________________ �PURA VIDA! Carpe Diem

Of corse they will, everybody can learn things, but I admit that I hate the homes works!!! I also have seen womens that know to weld. I saw her in a program of discovery chanel, in hiper constructions, she was participating on one construction of one hyper bridge. And for this work you need a lot of experience and precision, because a little mistake can change the direction of the bridge!!! _________________

Housework is something that most people avoid, of course. lol Most people don't like washing the dishes, cooking, washing the clothes, cleaning the house, it isn't really easy to do all that, plus it's much better to do everything we actually like, so that's exactly why both men and women should know how to do the shores, that way they can do them together and make the thing easier, don't you think?
Anyway, I'm glad there's a fellow costarican in this forum! lol
Have a great day you guys!!!!

Hey Ad-miral you're an evil guy, mate! lol
WOW!! This is totally unbelieveable, hahaha, I live in Tec, Francisest
Anyway... I see we're off topic here... Why don't we return to the housework theme lol. Yay, I never thought there were so many costaricans here, this is amazing
So, umm... what do you reckon about chinese culture my dear Ad-miral? Do you think housework should only be for women or for both, perhaps?
Bye, see you!
PS: Ad-miral is from China, I believe. _________________ �PURA VIDA! Carpe Diem

It seems you've never worked with engineers. Just see Admiral, our young and handsome but messy engineer in training. And, hey Clarissa, is your husband neat or messy? |
hahaha Bob my dear American-Shanghai brother thank you for your nice words I'm very flattered. Engineers are not always clean, I'm an example! Just look at my office table! It's similar to my computer table.
Clarissa, I don't believe you can top me with your mess.
Cristi, I'm Chinese, but I'm living in Germany. So it's not important whether you call me Chinese or German.
About housework stuff, I think it's just a matter of communication.
Some women don't want their men to do housework for them because their men are very inexperienced and slow, so they consider it as a pain, watching their husbands do this thing wrong, that thing wrong...
On the other hand some women enjoy their men doing housework, but at the end she doesn't have experience. And if she divorces with her husabnd and wants find a new one, who will marry a woman who can't do any housework?
Communication is best, and love! Hahaha I also want to have a girlfriend. My future girlfriend, may I ask a question, where are you now?
Ha Cristi thanks, at least you understand me! Hey Rogerlz, how can you even think I could be female? (nothing against the female users here) Ah, I see, you need a prove?  _________________ If I say "I love you" to someone, then I also have to say "I also love everyone else inside you, I love the whole world because of you, I also love myself inside you." -- Erich Fromm, the Art of Love |

Poor Ad-miral... Go and look for that girl, I'm sure there are many in Germany or in China that would like to hang out with you!
Anyway, thank you for the explanation, I got it now... But, I wonder what Red Rose would say about that... she's from China too, isn't she? Hmmm... Red Rose, are you here????? lol Oh, I got other thing to say, you can speak chinese (mandarin??), english and probably german, right?? If you do, mate, you can communicate with almost the whole world, that's amazing!
Oh, and that's a good picture, it's difficult to take those ones, in which people are moving and you have to deal with light too... lol
About the housework theme...umm... Sooner or later, even if you don't know anything about cleaning, if you live in a place where you're the one who must keep it nice, you'll begin cleaning. I mean, who likes to live in a mess? I bet no one. Who can survive by eating pizza everyday? NO ONE! This isn't about genders, it's about common sense. It isn't healthy to live in a mess, I don't mean that everything has to be totally perfect, but at least you have to put each thing in it's place. The garbage in the wastebasket, the clothes in the closet, the books in a proper furniture and so on. Don't you reckon, mates? _________________ �PURA VIDA! Carpe Diem
