Debate at work: how many men can braid?

Options
I say a lot of men! Maybe not hair... But leathers... Other items?

    I can! You can thank boy scouts and years of church camp arts and crafts making lanyards for that. I have braided my darling daughters hair quite a few times, although not the greatest but she likes it!

    lol omg. So funny this came up. I was watching TV with my bf last night, I had my head on his chest and I can feel him playing with hair.

    ...He was braiding it. And was QUITE proud of the braid that he had made. So yes. My man can braid.

    I think I can. A better question might be who can braid well. Definitely not me.

    I can tell you my husband...can NOT. I'm proud when he can rangle our daughter's hair into a low ponytail! She's 3 with waist long hair (picture in my profile). I'm the hairdresser in our family! LOL

    I can braid. All types of hair. Actually, I can even do adequate corn rows. Worked at an emergency shelter for kids for two years. It was a home environment, I had to learn that stuff.

    I can't fishtail braid my own hair (because I never understand how to do it despite trying numerous times haha) so if I want it, my boyfriend happily does it for me!

    I can do it, but my wife is so much better at it than me. On mornings when mom is unavailable, its typically a pony tail day.

    My hubby cannot braid. We have four daughters, so I've tried to teach him before. He has never gotten the hang of it.

    I think most men can. I honestly don't think I've met a guy who cant. Hmmm interesting

    I'm a leather crafter. So I can braid. I've only tried braiding hair a couple of times, tho.

    I use to have long hair, 36" from my neck down. I grew it out twice in my life. Never learned to braid it though. There was no shortage of women in my life that would do it for me. Mom, Aunts, cousins, wife, girlfriends, ect....

    My Dad taught me how to french braid hair when I was a kid. He was just messing around with my Mom's hair one day and figured it out on his own.
