In Reply to: how do you get the ladies to accept your love for tractors? posted by tractor kid on December 19, 2002 at 21:11:00:

Well, I met my wife in college, we were both around 40. One of the things we talked about was farming, she was interested, even though we both lived in town. One day we were talking, and she told me I should have a tractor. After going to tractor shows she decided she liked the looks of the Ford, but she liked the red Farmall A. I liked the John Deere L and H, both of which I owned once. We both like an International 93 self propelled combine that we sometimes see when we go for a ride in the country. I told her I thought I could fix tractors to sell if I had a building to work in, and some scaffolding to support myself, because I'm disabled with trouble sitting and walking and lifting. She agreed. We still live in town, and I've got the scaffolding, I spent 3 years putting up vinyl siding, and in the last year of the siding I started the barn in the back yard. I've been building the barn for 2 years now, and in 2003 I'll be putting up the steel on the roof, and then I'll buy something to dig with to repair and use, then sell, to dig out the top soil and put in the floor. So at 53 we both like tractors, if I don't explain it too much, she likes knitting and quilting, and she doesn't explain it too much. We want to work vacations around picking up equipment to buy to fix.

At tractor shows I see tractors with names of the owners on them, and some are girls.

You know what? Everyone is right. They could be interested, they could participate, or they could let you have your hobby, and they can have their's. There's pleanty of answers, the right one for you will just take some finding, it is more important to let her know that she is more important then the hobby, no matter what the hobby.
