When I was in middle school, Home Ec was required for the girls and it was about every aspect of home making.

I have no idea if they even teach that class anymore.

We had Home Ec in middle school too (man, I feel old). It was coed -- for some of the guys, it was a way for them to "play chef" and impress the girls with their cooking skills. :) It was a valuable class. I am not sure it is still being taught at that school.

My high school home ec [in case we’d forgotten the other class, I reckon] was also co-ed.

We ended up kind of ‘pairing off’ with the guys.

An older guy named Mark was my ‘husband’.

He’d come into the room and yell “Where’s muh supper, woman?”

That was a fun class...:D
