How many ladies can do this consistently? It sounds a bit clichéd, but I came across some young women earlier struggling to get their water bottles open, so offered to help - it made me feel all manly  |

If its a crappy cheap plastic bottle then I sometimes struggle getting the lid untwisted as they seem to collapse as I turn it
Other than that I get most open on my own |

We've got one of those!
It's usually only used for banging nails into the wall though.

I've got a grip like a vice (be warned, boys ) so don't struggle with jars or bottles. In fact I helped a nice man open his bottled water once. Well, I couldn't let the poor dear struggle. |

Great tip I learned some years ago for opening stubborn jars. Take the jar and give the side of the lids a sharp tap on your worktop, it then easily opens |

I'm pathetic I can't open anything I have small hands so jars I have no chance with and I think I must be a weakling too.
So yep have to have a manly man rescuing me! |

Does the same technique work with virgins?

Pierce the lid with a Sharp pointed implement. Releases the devilish vacuum that holds it down. |

I've got tendonitis in my left elbow at the minute, the inflammation is restricting my ability to grip at the minute (it's ok, I'mright handed!) Felt like such a prat today when I couldn't even open a packet of crisps for my little one! So any guys wanting to feel manly can come and open all sorts for me for the next couple of weeks |

No problems opening bottles or jars but I'm cack-handed and am awful with a tin opener.
I also usually have to get Vince to open random things that seem to have been made by Hercules himself... Like the sauce pots you get with Dominos pizza.

I do and have a special tool to help me however I do struggle with very large jars so if my son is not around and all the tricks have failed, I stand it on the floor and tap the lid with a hammer  |

but why bother, you have a spoon no doubt in the cuttlery draw, use the handle end, and lever it between the jar and the lid, it will release the seal and the jar will open without the slightest pressure |
