  1. is weaving traditionally a female activity in bhutan? which makes him a rare exception?

  2. Hi arcibaldo,

    Yes, it is extremely uncommon for males to be weaving but there are historical records that prove that few male members have taken up weaving. In fact it is so rare that the Bhutanese believe that cloth woven by male are "charmed" and thus are highly treasured.
