I agree wall mounts for new televisions need 3 hands for ease of installation. ...when I did mine I was in love with a modern woman geek engineer knew all 8 color coded wires to modem satellite et al and had in her tool box a stud finder I did not have....her dad was also an engineer but not sexist. ...so I did the sore muscles parts and she did the supervising and approving of exactly where to drill. ...a childless woman felt I was disposable 8 years later

YouTube is the best thing on the planet! All you need to do is type in the search window what you're trying to do and at least 100 people have made a how to video! I've yet to be disappointed

Both my parents were the opposite of yours. They were of the opinion that life skill were not gender oriented us boys were taught to cook, clean and do laundry and my sister were given the opportunity to fix machinery, build and repair things. We were all taught to drive and thus to change oil, tires, batteries and make simple automotive repairs. Could be because we lived on a farm that they were like this but, I am of the opinion that it was because they felt these things were something everyone should have.

Good Job! I was raised by a single mother who had to do the jobs of "man" and "woman", so I learned to do most all of it. I just remodeled the majority of my basement (removing 70's paneling, texturing, window/floor molding w/miter joints, the whole 9 yards) with only a little help from a man (my ex-husband, who also never believed a woman can do "mans" work. I only think he helped with one miter joint project because he couldn't believe I completed another one on my own. -a substantially larger mitering project. lol). I have also never changed my own oil.
