Speaking for myself, we are so effing dinky!?The men are so much better. Why ever? The shoulder girdle? Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: I think its a soul thing. Women are nurturing whereas the male is more confrontational in his outlook. You can put it down to hormones if you prefer. I think a woman plays piano as a friend where a man plays it as a potential foe. This is a little profound for me at this time of the morning but because I have no sherry in the house I had to have an extra large espresso instead ! As to Conductors....I think we are just more comfortable with the image of a man with a stick in his hand than a woman. Freud eat your heart out. |
