Q: Are We Not Men?

posted by on October 12 at 13:49 PM

OK, so I was slumming it over in the SLOG section over lunch (as if there’s something more important to talk about than music) and lo and behold I see the SLOG Freaky Friday list: Callie, GurlDoggie, SDA in SEA, Comte, Katelyn, Original Andrew, Original Monique, Amelia, Boomer in NYC. Now, unless my math is off (or GurlDoggie is male), that’s 55% women. Now look at us: MattyDread, danmohr, Jason Josephes, Levislade, Flamingbanjo, Eric Sullivan. What a sausage fest! We probably don’t even own ten pairs of shoes among us!

What the hell does this have to say about obsessive music people?!?

Somebody at Evergreen needs to get chugging on a thesis like right now.

Honest to god I tried to get some women in the mix, but we have very few regular female commenters and the screennames that may or may not belong to women never responded. Sigh.

Oh, there are obsessive female music nerds, but we just don't comment on Line Out obsessively.

yeah, we're definitely less prone to snark or snide, which is what you do when you are a commenter, no?

Definitely, your womb essence makes you all much more nurturing and sincere than us men. But, wait, isn't Ari a dude?!

I've never been more ashamed to own a penis. However, I also own four pairs of shoes. One of them has holes in 'em, but still, I think I'm winning the numbers game.

Gurldoggie is indeed a man.

Dammit - down to 44%! But 44 > 0, even for large values of 0.

And Ari is, and always has been, a chick - to the confusion of many a slog commenter.

If you listened to set list you would know that Ari Spool is a woman, or at least a very efeminate(SP?) sounding male...
