      Ikr. Way back when, everyone knew how to sew, depending on their job.
      If you were a sailor, you probably knew how to mend a sail if it had a tear. Men were and are tailors, they make clothes for men and women by sewing. It's a skill, and it's pretty important. It's not a 'girly' thing to sew and people should stop perpetuating that idea. It's just so stupid. 🤦

    very informative video, needed to resew a button that popped off and your video help immensely, keep up the good work. This is something I am surprised my parents didn't teach me as it just seems like something everyone should know(not a diss on my parents, they are amazing, this must have just slipped through the cracks)
