1. Can you fix things? No, unfortunately, but I wish I could, because every now and then some household appliances break down and my computer, my phone don’t work properly and then at least I try turning it off and on to see if it works again, but it doesn’t help all the time, you gotta call a technician and sometimes I think, I should have learned how to repair some household appliances. 2. What things can you fix? I am no expert about that, the thing I can do is only some basic stuff, but thankfully, my roommate is more experienced than me about fixing, she can use some tools, like hammer, screwdriver, even I could say she is good with her hands, she can change lightbulbs which frees up some hassle. 3. Do you think it is necessary for people to learn to fix things? It is always a plus, it is a good idea to know at least how things work so that you can sort out the problem and call a professional and explain the problem, but I think, mostly, men are responsible for fixing things, so it is one of the skill sets that a man should have, I am not sure about women.
