ComeOutOfTheSewingCloset2011

Introduction/Definition/etc

From BadWill2011 to learning to Sew,

yet undone, see AVeteransSonLaughsAndSpitsAtMe2011

and HippieClownCamp2011 for some reasons to sew,

clown pants, juggling balls, and well, an alternative

view on what gender is...

Plus, for a limited time,

Prelude to Sewing for Men...

Body

OK, it's a neat machine, makes noise, and was told

not to play with it as a kid...

Sound familiar?

I bought two old sewing machines at a thrift store,

(see BadWill forthcoming) which does not change my gender nor orientation

despite the abuse by some basically narrow minded pigs...

If it's 2011 and Women Can Do Anything Men Can

isn't the inverse true?

Thinking on Babbage's first computers,

mechanical before electronic, and then to

Ada Lovelace was the first programmer,

a female, and related to Lord Byron

the author/ poet and helped create the

general use computer, using symbols

instead of just numbers, and look where we

are today...

And Enigma too. Mechanical, IIRC.

And the Complete Idiot's Guide to Sewing

is not specific enough for men...

Here is how to use a generic machine,

and then lets make a skirt...

Not even interested in making a UtiliKilt...
