Men can sew!  They only say they can't so the women will feel sorry for them and do it for them.
LOL, that is so true sometimes. My late husband could sew and also knit. My father could sew too. I have dated a few men who could sew but, as you said, they pretend to not know how.

Some guys do know how to sew. Most just don't like to admit it. I learned how to sew watching my mom do it all the time growing up. Even though I haven't done it much lately, I feel comfortable picking up a needle and thread and sew when I need to by hand.

Men can learn to sew if they want to. I worked in a knitwear factory (supervisor) for a few years and I learned to sew then. I also learned how to size patterns up and down and do quite a few other things.

The crazy thing is that in all of my relationship, that involved single mothers, I was the one that her children turned to for sewing and other crafty things.

My best friends Father had a automotive upholstery shop. Nearly everyday afterschool (middle-school thru high-school) we was there looking at the bad @zz Hot-Rods he was working on. He showed us things here and there. I make good money on the side doing custom automotive interiors. Im like a lil ole lady going to fabric stores.

Im teaching myself.Ruffles...how does one make ruffles?I have a fashion diva who actually turns this way and that in her own mirror to admire her reflection...especially if it's something new Ive just made her...also...how does one adjust for sizing...say things that are printible online?Any suggestions for sites where such patterns are availible to print or send for?
My fashion queen is my teacup chihuahua puppy,Raisin.Lol!She will wear about anything I put on her...clothing,boots,hats,wigs...if she likes her reflection she'll wear it and prance about like she's a celebrity...if she don't,she'll take it off.Thanksgiving i sewed her a fleece snowsuit type outfit.My Stepdad's friend started poking fun about her clothes...as if on que she began growlinging with disgust and barking at him from my Stepdad's arms!You take away her clothes and she huddles up inside herself as though she's naked and ashamed.Even in a hot room...but boy howdy,she also gets cold fast and easy.
Oh btw...eyelash glue...no matter how much of it you use...will NOT hold a bow on the top of a chihuahua's smooth little head.We're back to the chin strap
Ladies...couple of gents:I am not the frilly girly girl type...Ive always believed in putting a sweater or jacket on a short coated dog in the winter,and bowes in their hair after grooming a poodle type ,but never understood dressing a dog in all of that fru fru nonsense... until Raisin...Omg!I can't tell you how much fun Ive had playing dress up dolly with this tiny lil not even real let alone a dog, dog!Not to mention she enjoys it as well as the interaction with me.It's a very special bond we have,very different than with my wolves n gsds.I never knew I had this side of me.It all started because she was cold with the air conditioner /my hotflashes...now at 5 months and 5" she is certain she is THE princess.Even the biggest of our fur family treats her as such.I saw our pitbull put her paw so gently on Raisin's head is was as if she were touching fine crystal.They actually dote on her.My wolves...their feet are much bigger than her whole body is yet Raisin is given her way in all matters...if they want to nap and she wants to wrestle...they wrestle with her.If she wants a toy...they let her take it...if a cat bops her for chewing it's head n ear soaking wet,the cat is chased and verbally warned {putting me instantly to my feet...I as alpha must assert my authority and always be supervising when these animals are all together.

I'm great at hand stitching, but a bit intimidated to use a machine. I really want to learn so I can do something with all this material I have laying around.

My best friend sewed his own wedding tuxedo. And he sewed my camo prom dress back in the day. And he did a damn good job of it. Some boys do know how. And it's a great skill to have

Many men are fashion designers, then there's a talior vs a seamstress. If a man wants to wear tailor made clothes instead of off the "rack" clothes he will have several tailor made suits, or even ever day wear.. But, if the post is about a man's ability to sew, well my mom insisted that her 10 kids(9 boys,1 girl) not only lear to sew,but knit,crocet,embroder,cook,clean,etc.. These are important skills for single men,after all if he doesn't repair his clothes,or cook..mmm..do dishes? Who will? I found out at 18 that dishes are expensive,and people would complain when I threw broken,unwashed dishes away.. Same with my "old" clothes.. so men can sew,etc..
