If you believe "The Courier Mail", women are in danger of losing their "female" skills. That's basically a sexist way to say that women today can't do the kinds of things in the kitchen and the garden that their moms and grandmothers did. For example . . .
Only 51% of girls under 30 can cook a pot roast, compared to 82% of the women who are baby boomers. Only 23% can grow a plant from a cutting, which 78% of their moms and grandmothers could do.
And only 40% of women under 30 can drive stick, compared to 71% of older women. At the same time: Over 70% say they take out the trash, 77% mow the lawn, and 70% wash the car.
