You said,

Genevas are definitely a guy thing, just like Shopsmiths.

Don't tell thunderbirdbat aka Brenda that.

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.

What does yer Bro 'teach'? Obviously neither walking nor chewing gum(maybe one at a time ?)

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

as they say. those that can, do. those that cant, teach

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.
