I'm with you. I thought it was a positive write up.
I like someone who will at least try something they fear.

I get the same feeling of achievement when I’m able to do something with the computer, instead of asking my teenagers to do it!

TLS: "I like someone who will at least try something they fear."

That's reasonable, and agreeable.

TC: "Why, because she wrote a chirpy article about learning a new skill?"

I congratulate her for taking the time and effort to learn to use a chain saw, and for learning how to maintain it properly. But my opinion is that the tenor of the article follows the headline. It's basically that women are as good as men and she has written an article which proves it.

Men don't write articles claiming to be just as good as women. It's beneath their dignity.
