To the commenter who says they struggle to open jars after two years on HRT: get thee to a gym and get thine hands upon the iron. Verily, the deadlift can purge thy piteous weakness. Sure, having thin, unmuscled hands and forearms may be fashionable, but nothing is more important than rapid access to pickles.

That shit is so exhaustingly DUMB the stereotype about women not being able to open jars is due to our smaller palms not our strength

Thank you. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I am unable to open large jars with my bare hands because I can barely get my hand around the lid. It is not because I am a soft, weak 'girl'! Once I have flipped the jar and popped the seals with a butter knife I am able to open them no problem.
