Hey mate are you from Italy too?

I'm an English - but, Italy is nice, although I didn't like Vatican city... Looks beautiful, strange atmosphere.

you either play or go home. gender has nothing to do with it. no one in my 'jazz circles' cares about anything but the playing.

edit: the cool thing about jazz = no gender issues, no race issues, no class issues....

Screw it, I'm going back to read only. Some people will be offended regardless of what you say, so why say anything? I'm glad TB has an Ignore function.

sure thing!!

On a slightly more serious side, if anyone is interested in a more in depth discussion about some stuff, I'm pretty open to having that conversation and I'm all for trying to help expand other folks perspective on this stuff, but one thing that tends to happen when topics like this come up is that its not a debate. There isn't any winning. There isn't any proving which side is right or wrong. Its about growing and learning and gaining more empathy and understanding for your fellow person who might totally have a different set of experiences in life than you might have.

Having discussions like this in bad faith is worse than not having them at all, imo.

Talent is talent, regardless of gender.

I don't see Gale Ann Dorsey as "good for a chic".

Bernie Edwards was in Chic, not Gail Ann Dorsey!

Indeed, you don't play bass with your penis. I've never even tried. Maybe Flea has by accident.

what a load of rubbish

Obviously.

Dimorphic differences in expression of secondary sexual characteristics are going to be less important than someones overall strength, fitness and other factors.

The inability to differentiate a legitimate question from the nonsensical is a somewhat lost skill in this modern world. Drama is craved by so many people today. It’s disheartening.

You’re on a different page than me, and I have no interest flipping to it. Have a good day.
