Hi girls!

So in an effort to lighten up the forum again, what with all the serious talks that we usually have, and within the same lines of my previous post, "How can you feminize your sneeze," I wanted to post this question because this is something that not a lot of people often think about.

My SO is constantly in a wheelchair and the discussion was brought up as to how to disassemble her wheelchair in a feminine manner. I thought this would be a brilliant thing to ask everyone, but since then I've made my question a bit broader:

Is there a feminine way of disassembling collapsible objects? This can be tents, wheelchairs, Christmas trees, etc...

Yes, definitely. Just let the nearest man do it!

There is no SEX when collapsing anything. Just Take off the legs, Pull up
on the seat center, and you have it. Now where the dignity comes in, picking
it up and putting it into the back of a Tahoe. :heehee: Rader

Regardless of how I'm dressed, when I have to pick up some unwieldly object, I look just like a dork. I suggest ramps, components that can be taken apart or parking well at the back of the lot where no one will see you.

My wife used to use one of those electric scooters. This model could come apart for ease of transport. I got pretty good at taking it out of the trunk (boot) and putting it together. (best time was just under one minute). Same with putting it back in.
The few times we were out with me dressed, I had to be very aware of bending over when assembling or disassembling it.

The only specific thing that comes to my mind is bend at the knees rather than at the waist. Guys should do this too to avoid back strain, but many don't. In our case, if you bend at the waist, you might reveal more than you intended :heehee:

The proper answer to the question is...........NO!! Allie gave the only acceptable answer, find a man to do it!!

Yes, I am a man under the satin and lace. But I am not dressed properly to do those things now!!

And keep the knees together as much as possible.

I would just think that you'd have to take into account the weight of the object more than guys do. Oh, and not break the thing you're trying to collapse/fold up. I've snapped more than a few things that weren't folding up quick enough for my liking.

I guess it depends how mechanically inclined the woman is. :)

Thanks for reminding it. I like wearing womens running shorts at work when safety is not a concern because I can squat to lift things from the floor (and save my back), but could reveal too much after switching to a short skirt :heehee:

I know this isn't a serious thread, but let's keep in mind, your back is a serious part of your body and picking things up, doing things the wrong way etc isn't going to be funny when you're lying in bed with a bad back.

Your SO?
How long you been with this one?
I thought just a few weeks ago you were saying you were breaking up with some lady who never called or whatever?

Wow, you go thru women faster than Sarah Palin goes thru tampons

For a tent you have to put all the pieces neatly back in their original packaging, tie the ends, fold the fabric neatly so as not to cause wrinkles and when you break a nail you have to swear.

Many manly men just throw all the stuff in and the next year find that missing hamburger that somehow found its way in to the tent and wonder why ants were crawling all over the camping gear all year.

This is actually an interesting question. As a woman, I have carried several heavy loads, eased wheelchairs down grassy slopes, taken computers apart, and quite a bit else. I just try to mimic in my mind's eye a woman doing a similar task, wearing what I'm wearing.

Looking back, one thing I tend to do is to use either about half my strength, or all of it. By that, I mean things such as if something requires any serious effort to do with one hand, do it with both hands. If lifting with both hands, carry it the way you would an object twice as heavy (making double sure to lift with your legs, carry at your center of gravity, etc). I'm not sure if this actually has any contribution to my passability when doing these things, but nobody seems to complain.
