Looking at your rating, I can't see how this can be true, unless you suffer from some form of mental handicap.

On the contrary, it was recently overturned in a coup by a group of satirical partisans.

Why only for males? I absolutely hate putting a duvet into a duvet cover, and I am definitely worse at it than at chess.

I wish I could play chess as well as I can put a duvet cover on.

The 'Males Only' a little tongue in cheeck.
After failing yet again on changing the bedclothes with SWMBO
yesterday, I pondered that duvet insertion is harder for me than chess,
which as Starrman and Daerfal spotted is hard enough for the addled brain of this 55 and 1/2 year old.
But that don't stop me enjoying the challenge !

Best way is to turn the duvet cover inside out. Put your arms through the "inside" to the corners on the other side of the cover. Grab the corners of the duvet and hold onto it and lift the duvet up and shake the cover down over the duvet. Simple. 🙂

Jo, any chance you can make your avatar smaller? It's like nearly a Mb. I'd be happy to do it for you if you want.
