I started learning when I turned 60--three years ago. High school did not have Home EC, not that I would have taken it anyway. I thought then that it was "stupid" and I didn't want to identify with all those future wives and mothers. I wanted to be a professional something. I eventually became a clinical psychologist. Well, I am a wife and a mother and a beginning sewer and still a feminist. I guess young minds tend to put things into black and white. I wish I would have started sewing earlier but no point to regrets.
Anybody else out there who grew up with similar attitudes? I can't be the onlu one!
