I do not think it is a guy or gal thing so much as aptitude and ability. These determine what you learn how to do and what you like to do. My brother has a hard time chewing gum and walking at the same time, forget using any tools, so I ended up doing most of those things. It translated to a Navy career as a technician while my brother teaches.

I agree gender has nothing to do with much that is considered otherwise.

My brother teaches English Composition to 6 and 7th graders. He also writes, for about the same age group, although I have not read them. His books are available on Amazon but I am not sure how many he sells.
