For all the feminism promoted on this site, not being able to change your own tires smacks a bit like "poor little girl" syndrome. If you don't know how...learn. Call your friends. Call your LBS. Watch online videos. Practice at home. Stop making excuses.

Buck it up, TE'ers. I know you can.
My sentiments, exactly. It's not rocket science. Practice until it hurts and then practice some more. There is no excuse for being stranded because of one doesn't know how to fix a flat. Same thing goes for cars, by the way.
