DIY is very popular with men. We like to create the things we use, even with comestibles. For example, I love beer. I like drinking it, and I also like brewing it.

You know - our modern world has lost track of an important aspect of life that was prevalent in previous centuries, think of chamber pots being tossed into the streets, horses and carriages, open sewers, people bathing once a week (if at all) and wearing only one outfit - ever, markets with meat hanging in the sun, livestock roaming free…we bring you:

I attended a meeting that had one of the actors from Scarborough Faire as a guest. She said that one of the bosses said that their goal was to recreate the <whatever> century life in sight and sound, but not smell.
