I just had a series of sterograph photos from the 1890's entitled: "Putting up Hay in Norway".

They showed the grass being cut by hand...then tied in tuffs, and hung on racks to dry...then carried to the barn.

All of the photographs showed only Women working with the hay. The captions explained: "...most of the heavy farm work in Norway is done by the Women and Girls...the Men have a gift of forecasting the best weather for working of the fields..."

Perhaps, we could learn something from history...☺☺☺
