Ask her if its more of a "sliding" noise or a "scraping" noise. And is it rubbing Full time? or intermediately?

lol it wasnt directed towards all women AT ALL. My best friends mom was one of the best welders/mechanics around when she had her shop open. That being said, she was still probably the only woman in town who even knew how to change a tire.

i think you guys are saying the same thing. He's referring to the group of women that don't know anything about cars. He didn't mean that women can't think as much as men, we all know that ain't true. And the fact that a lot of women don't know anything about cars does mean something....it means that a lot of women don't know anything about cars. Not all of them obviously, but most. Sure there are plenty of exceptions, but the fact remains. There aren't a lot of guy cheerleaders....but they exist...yet the majority of men do not cheer lead. You don't see cheerleading guys getting all upset because somebody said most guys aren't cheerleaders.

Sorry for jackin' the tread too... But I don't back down and I stand up for my self I don't take such things lightly, being a women in the trades I have something to prove I need to be able to do this and be respected as an equal. So if I don't stand up for my self and all the other women, respectfully, in the trades we won't be treated as equals! apologies....but that's just what reality is for us I have to have a hardened thick skin to hack it so I just jump all over these things when they come up
