  I saw a girl under 10 do cartwheels today. First time in a while.

  My wife does spins whenever she’s wearing a dress that will float out. I probably would too if I fit in such a dress.

    I feel like dresses are probably the most forgiving piece of clothing fit-wise.

      As a fat dress wearing guy: yes.

  It’s fun to watch my kid attempt a cartwheel, he turns about 1 radian and then folds onto the floor. He’ll get it right one of these days, but I think I like part better

    Hopefully I can still do it

    Honestly, I used to do a lot of cart wheels as a boy, because fun. Now my shoulders and back say ‘uh, sir, you’re like 200 lbs, gtfo’

  I’d do a cartwheel if I had the body of an 8 year old, I can’t even do the dishes without backpain now

  • Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

    I turn my seat heaters on for back pain

      Why would you need the back pain?

  True that I see less people doing this, but there are some that keep it alive, my sister still randomly cartwheels everywhere she goes, she even learnt how to do it while holding her beer, and without spilling it !

    Ok, that I’d like to see.

  • yakko@feddit.uk ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    That is the most arresting thing I’ve heard all day.

  I work at a primary school and I see random cartwheels almost every day.

  • frog@feddit.uk ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    I work at a Home Depot. I also see cartwheels all the time.

    source

    • WoodScientist@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I certainly wouldn’t put it past home depot to hire elementary school kids!

  In my country a woman suspected of murder did a cartwheel while waiting to be interrogated and the police basically took that as an admission of guilt

  source

  • Viceversa@lemmy.world ⁨54⁩ ⁨minutes⁩ ago

    Maybe the victim was murdered by a cartwheel.

  • Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net ⁨1⁩ ⁨hour⁩ ago

    I’m sorry, what?

• silasmariner@programming.dev ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  Maybe, hopefully, OP just doesn’t spend as much time with girls as he did when a little boy. Anyway random cartwheels are definitely still a thing.

    Edit: turns out I can’t read

    This is because society is evil and has killed the reading impulse in your soul

  • Diddlydee@feddit.uk ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    He definitely said in the post that women don’t do random cartwheels, not girls.

  • CorrenteAlternata@lemmy.blahaj.zone ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    I think OP was saying that as they grow up girls stop doing cartwheels. Because grown girls don’t do cartwheels. I think you should see it as a “we live in a society” meme

    Can confirm, have 6yo daughter obsessed with perfecting her cartwheels.

    source

    • WoodScientist@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Tell her that most girls lose their cartwheel magic as they get older. Encourage her to keep it up and to not ever be afraid to do one!

    This is exactly what killed the impulse to cartwheel
