How to change a tire on a car? Although we live in an age of equality, there is still a belief that a woman's place is at home, behind the stove. Two thirds of Slovenians thought so in 2014! That they take care of household chores or home and family, and men for more physically demanding tasks, including around the house, for protection and income. But in the era of feminism, many women no longer agree to the traditional social division of roles and break stereotypes one by one. This girl has taken matters into her own hands, too, and now she wants you to too. You can start by knowing how to change a car tire, which is considered a man's job. Otherwise, the easiest thing is to drive the car to the edge and, with a kind expression on your face, catch some macho guy to change it for you. But this is not a woman in the 21st century. A woman of the 21st century puts on gloves, takes a tool, a spare tire and starts to lift the car with a jack. In addition, a tire can burst somewhere behind your back. And then? At that point, you'll need to replace it yourself, and in this post, Brittany Hornick will show you how.
