			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<ul>
<li>Do you struggle to hammer nails into a wall without chipping out massive chunks of masonry and plaster?</li>
<li>Do all the picture frames you hang on walls stay there for less time than it took for you to put the picture up in the first place?</li>
<li>Does the grass you mow never grow back?</li>
<li>Do the plants in the garden attempt to prune you?</li>
<li>Does changing a light-bulb generally result in an electrical discharge?</li>
</ul>
<p>If you answered yes to any of the above questions, you may be a Handytard.<br />
But don&#8217;t worry. It&#8217;s more common than you think.</p>
<p>Thousands of men suffer from Handytardism, and don&#8217;t even know it. Most men who are handytards only discover this fact once they buy a house and try to start a family. Due to this, some handytards could go undiagnosed for their whole lives.</p>
<p>Many handytards are affected by the social stigma attached to handytardism. Handytardism is, in fact, a direct affront on their masculinity. Men who cannot fix the broken things in their homes, or successfully hang decorations on the walls for their women, may as well be impotent.</p>
<p>Handytards of the world, do not fret!<br />
Fortunately there is an easy solution that even the most inept would-be handy-man can use to his benefit. This solution is guaranteed to please your woman, and has been widely utilised by men with erectile dysfunction.</p>
<p>Get a professional to do the job for you.</p>
