They wouldn't let me take shop or typing either Kitty. Still can't type
well because of that. Of course these are the same schools that wouldn't

started giving me D's in penmenship. Get a clue people.
I, too, was not allowed to take shop in high school, which infuriated me.  I

refused to take home ec. but was the only girl in geometry, trigonometry,
and 
physics classes, and made the best grades in each. (This was a very small 
school - only 28 in my high school graduating class.)  Then in college the
head of 
the math department told me there was no possible career for women in 
mathematics except teaching.  Times have changed.
