I suppose it would be mostly practical skills, cooking, fixing things. Usually had to be done by people themselves.
Maybe also mental things like navigating (with or without paper map) and remembering their daily and weekly agendas.
What other things would be a big difference with the people today?
Before adhesive pads were invented to stick to your underwear, you had to wear a climbing harness and use safety pins to keep your pad in place.

I remember seeing this among my grandma’s belongings when I was a kid. It was… grimy.

This seems like a skill that deserves to die. Adhesive pads, cups, tampons, etc. seem way better.
Oh wow, thanks for the reply and TIL!!!
