[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’d gently suggest you adjust your stereotype that women aren’t typically skilled in home maintenance. If she’s handy already, she’s probably used to finding home maintenance how-tos online, which is a more current and comprehensive source than a book would be. In her shoes, I’d be offended by a maintenance book “for women in this situation”—when the situation is just home ownership. Maybe a different housewarming gift would be better, like a tool you know she doesn’t already have.[/quote] For example I have a husband and I do literally all of the home maintenance. He absolutely sucks at doing anything involving manual dexterity. Yes, even that. He has other virtues. [/quote]
