I took home economics in High School because I was one of the only (straight) guys in a class full of girls. I learned to cook and got a lot of dates. Win-win.
I still don't touch type, although I can keep up a pretty good pace using 3-4 fingers on each hand thanks to 25 years of practice. I tried Mavis Beacon but the repetitive exercises bored me to tears and I gave it up.
I did the same thing in high school got a minor in home economics. I spent most of my time in school in some kind of art class. As you can tell I have trouble spelling. In school it was never adressd I was just passed on becouse I was a good football player. I'll have to say the Home Ec. Teacher was the only teacher I had that ever tired to help me with it. I do use more than two fingers to type now days and kind of type without looking at the keys. If key broading class was not already mandatory I would still make all my grandkids take it. Its a skill people really need now days.
