Would swimming be even considered a feminine art? It involves both hands.

It involves neither creating or destroying.....might go along with horse riding in the "we don't know so don't think about it too much just do it" category.

Or it would be considered part of the masculine arts like sailing, fishing, fighting etc.Or it won't be considered an art on it's own, like eating. Therefore there must be a clear men/women pool separation. They could be even in one hall, but they should not mix. The women's pool would be also a considerable bit warmer, because of Vorinist reasons.

I thought that the Windrunner glyph is supposed to be blue.

Well, whatever the case may be for what color the glyph is supposed to be, this is what the pin looks like (spoilered for size):

I also have a necklace of this glyph, and it's red too.

That's not a Windrunner glyph, it's a Lightweaver glyph.

That's not what the people at the Badali Jewelry booth told me when I bought it from them at Salt Lake Comic Con. (Although it IS what their website says...) I'm so confused.

Update: Ok so I looked up the page on glyphs on the Coppermind: Glyphs. And there's two that it says are called "Shash," the first one of which is the one on my pin and necklace. When I bought the necklace, the Badali Jewelry people told me it was Kaladin's shash brand (which I think is why I was confused and associated it with Windrunners), but it doesn't match the picture higher up the Coppermind page that's labeled "Kaladin's brands." Can anyone explain to me why there are two different "shash" glyphs?

The Kaladin "shash" is for dangerous, while the "shash" on Lightweaver glyph refers to number "shash", or 6 (oddly enough, that's the only Radiant glyph to be named by its number rather than Order or Herald). Either "six" and "dangerous" are homonyms in Rosharan language, or "dangerous" shash figures somehow into "Lightweaver" shash (which is fairly probably, those things are so stylized...). In other words, someone's been adding Radiants glyphs to the coppermind and, rather than call Lightweaver glyph "Lightweaver" or "Shalash", decided to call it by its number.

But there's gotta be a connection between Shash and Shalash as well.

Well, elantrians used Aon Ehe (fire) to mark dangers. The "lightweaver shash" is associated with the sixth essence - blood. Probably the "dangerous shash" comes from this direction "this man will likely shed blood". But otherwise...thge glyphs don't even look similar to each other.

When baking, you remember that there are 16 tablespoons in a cup by reminding yourself that there are 16 allomantic metals and 16 shards.

Technically, there are 8 metals, 8 alloys which aren't strictly metals; 3 godmetalls; 48 alloys of metals/alloys with pure godmetals and some obscure godmetall-godmetall and godmetall-godmetall-alommantic metal alloys.

But that won't help me remember my baking measurements. D:
