My grandpa used to take me to mend fence with him, and I was somewhat annoyed bc there were several boy cousins around who could have helped just as well.

“I always bring you instead of the boys so that you learn that you can do shit just as well as any man- you need to know that so that you know you never need one for a damn thing-but I always help so you know to appreciate when someone can offer a helping hand and expertise 2/

After this last few days on social, I’ve realized my grandpa, born in the 40’s was more progressive than some of these broken ego, scared of women idiots roaming the interwebs lately.

I hope they haven’t reproduced. Lord knows we don’t need that mindset carried on.
