When I was ~14 my mom wanted me to take on baby sitting as a side gig to make some extra money. She made me take a CPR class so I could get certified by the red cross and that would make parents feel a bit better about me watching their kids. That class was exclusively teenage girls aside from me. I actually ended up eating a girl I met in that class for awhile lol.
I have absolutely zero interest in learning to sew or do embroidery, but I do enjoy working with my hands. Maybe I'll take some adult woodworking classes or something. Probably less women at those things but maybe I'll make a new friend. Who knows.
Any type of adult learning class I’ve been to has been great. It’s fun to learn that the library has like a free “how to make your own kombucha” class and see what kinds of people you can meet.
