Thanks Dawn, somehow I had the feeling that Marsians were coachable if people from Venus take the time to communicate and educate.
Holding onto the power of knowing how to do things and then saying that the others cannot do anything is somehow not liberating. But it takes effort.

My brother washes, dries, folds and puts clothes, sheets, towels, etc away better than his wife can and does. Most men don’t do it well because they don’t have much practice and they didn’t have anyone show them how to it or their Moms, wives or girlfirends did it for them.

Hahaha, however the gene explanation doesn’t somehow resonate…obstacles to learning come to mind….

When I watched a fellow struggling to fold away my ironing board, I stopped believing his assertions that he was domestically competent and sophisticated. Maybe there is a laundry gene that develops better in some of us…

Dan, that is all the encouragement I need. I will take command of that territory. That means when you come sailing on our boat, you will enjoy the luxury of weekly clean sheets as a result.
