A lot of women I know/date are seriously into reading, music, singing, drawing, sports..... maybe that's just the kind that I dig though
Gymnastics / Oly Lifting / BJJ / Kickboxing /

I don't think I've ever dated a girl who had what I would call a hobby now that I think of it. When they did activities, it was always something I got them into and they did it more for me than because they were genuinely interested and it never lasted long. Then they complain that they are bored and want you to take them out like it's you're job to entertain them.

Honestly I have no idea what they even do all day other than Netflix or talk on the phone.

Winter is slow of course and I move the bins into the garage which makes me a little sad because I like my worms to have lots of sunlight and fresh air, but better that then freeze.

I don't ship them, though you could, and I actually buy my Red Wigglers on Amazon. I take them into Lancaster to trade with a few Mennonite/Amish families, and then upstate when I visit family. If I'm selling them (which is rare, since I don't advertise, just word of mouth) it's 50 bucks a gallon for the worm leachate. It costs me nothing - I feed them scraps and the occasional newspaper, and the other scraps (like chicken bones) I make stock with in my Instant Pot, pressure can them and then trade those as well.

I can honestly say that I legit had no idea this was a thing.

Also how to you know how to find Amish/Mennonite families? Do you just show up to trade with them? And what do they trade you for?

Honestly this just opened up a whole wormhole of questions because I've legit never met anyone from an Amish community before and didn't know there were any nearby.

Tell me about it....a month ago I was traveling back for 3h with a train from a multi-day hiking trip and I couldn't even sleep in a comfy coupe because 2 girls across me spent their entire time talking about their girlfriends' relationships and bad mouthing their ex-boyfriends. Entire time I was thinking "Jesus sloots, did you date the entire village when you have so many exes to talk about". By the time train stopped, I knew everything about them, their exes and all of their friends. Such is life with women

Belly dancing.

Apparently there are hair-throwing/figure and make-up workshops for belly dancers, complete with "embrace your inner female by shaking your moneymaker in skimpy homemade clothing".

lol I've heard that one a million times. Also the "You can do it you just don't want to."

brb studying ancient alchemy and stonemason techniques to build this perfect fire pit that casts just the right shadow at 6 o'clock whilst also being within tolerances that would make a Japanese swordsmith blush using materials like gray river rocks and driftwood for the benches

I do a lot of scroll sawing. Its my primary artform.

It oddly has quite a few women involved in it who are actually pretty good at it too. Would not think using a saw would be something they would like but maybe because its smaller or something, dont know for sure.

I'm into Aquascaping, it is definitely male dominated hobby.

Probably because its not exactly instant gratification.

Anyway, a lot of guys don't have real hobbies apart from shouting at the TV when their favourite sport is on.

I had 2 thoughts:

Perhaps because men's and women's hobbies don't overlap very much, from the man's perspective it only seems like there are fewer female hobbyists because his circles mostly have men.

Or, because men are more 'thing'-oriented, and women tend to be more people-oriented, men naturally gravitate toward making and doing things, while women spend more time socializing. From an evolutionary perspective, this makes sense. Men who make things and develop skills are better positioned to reproduce, while the same is not true for women, who benefit more from reinforcing their social circles to better nurture their children.

I don’t know many women with hobbies tbh. My gf doesn’t have any, unless you count Netflix/Hulu..

Had to do a corporate "ice breaker" activity a few weeks ago where we each talked about a hobby or interest we had outside of work. The following were named by women srs:

- Singing in the shower
- Walking the dog
- Traveling (x7)
- Helping her bestie plan a dream wedding
- Eating at high end restaurants
- Yoga/barre/orange theory/soul cycle/etc.

Any girl I've ever dated had 0 hobbies. They literally just latch onto whatever I think is cool.

Shopping, travelling and gossiping are not hobbies

I guess that's why men have invented just about everything. Their brains are more apt to hyper focus on things and learn everything about it and how it can be improved.

Men can define themselves by the actions they take and the things they do.

Women define themselves by the quality of man they are able to keep

These castings have been shown to contain reduced levels of contaminants and a higher saturation of nutrients than do organic materials before vermicomposting. It's like the best Miracle-Gro you could ever imagine, and it rebalances your soil.

My worms get all of my food scraps minus bones, oil, and onions/garlic (I save those for stock.) I'm creating less waste and trash! It's an alive compost bin, so where with other types of composting you have to turn the bin every so often, the worms do all of the work for you. There is no stink, my neighbors don't even know I do it and I live in an urban area. I find it personally very fulfilling and worthwhile, and the farmers I work with are very grateful for the liquid gold I provide them.

If you have any other questions, ask away!
You're into vermicomposting as well? I have a small operation on my farm right now but looking to scale up pretty huge next year. I run a few hundred cattle and manure makes great feed for worms! Didn't know other miscers were into this haha

Generally women's hobbies are dictated by whatever provides a good photo for their social media

-yoga
-traveling
-rock climbing
-eating out
etc

It seems every non-obscure hobby is dominated by men, anything that involves collecting/ restoring something, gaming, martial arts, lifting, running.

I do stuff I enjoy; learn new skills if I take a fancy to them; do fitness stuff; social stuff, family stuff and insular stuff

I don’t turn into an anorak for any of them: don’t obsess, know every minute detail about things

Having a hobby doesn’t make you special, it’s just how you enjoy your life at best, or fill your gaping time at worst

I suppose you think gaming a hobby. Whereas things like trainspotting or d&d, stamp collecting, pub quizzes, cosplay, furries are also hobbies but specific types spring to mind
I would like to do things with a girlfriend - preferably things we both are interested in. I really hate that whenever a girl is over, I have to entertain her or be engaged with her so much. It would be nice if she had something to do, or if we could do things together. Programming, building, making, collecting, even playing video games together. That might sound lame to you but it would be a big positive to me.

Skiing is one thing I've gotten someone into that we both could really get good at and enjoy because we both loved it and doing it together is much better - even if one person is much better than the other.
