Hi-fi male dominated?

[davedotco]

I see your sensible post -

and raise you one Enid Lumley...*blum3*

And I will see you with the one and only Rosie O'Kelly.

Just wow...!

Yeah. So many receivers, yet the main speakers are cheap of the cheaps.

No idea, couldn't take my eyes of 'Rosie'.

Fascinating....*shok*

How many of her bikini videos did you watch?

There's a whole world on YouTube and there aren't enough hours too see it. Thanks for this though, Vlad. Seriously.

I had the same problem, the video left me with more questions than answers. *help*

In some shops and on expos. More common practice in Asia.

Oh dear: she's either not got a clue, or she's about to put that CD into a old Pioneer player.

Theres no way to know for sure if its a real transgender or a duct tape special

Not sure about that, but could be a Yamaha HRP-4C.

Yeah! And with silver duct tape bikinis, no less.

I don't think there will be any "why no gals in hifi" threads after this one.

Maybe in another couple of years, when you have all been unbanned.

I thought that all of the regular posters were male, but this weekend i have discovered that two are them are female. I doubt that they have found the bikini video level humour very funny.

Although enough drinks and the right lighting...

Ah, the first white knight appears.

The videos aren't funny and I don't mind Rosie at all. The eye-popping "steady on" reactions of the gents here are. They expose the firm gender roles embedded in our identity I was previously speaking of.

Or maybe a natural male reaction to something that is distinctly unnatural? Frankly I am sick to death of having to tread on eggshells to protect the membrane thin skins of minority groups who have spent the last two decades trying to change a society built over hundreds of years.

Nothing in nature is unatural. Breast implants are no less 'unatural' than insulin shots or a prosthetic limb. Whatever makes your life better without worsening others, have it.

A bit more flexible worldview and there wont be any eggshels or worries. *i-m_so_happy*

The thing is that we don't actually know whether this type of behaviour will worsen the lives of others 'cos we haven't tested the effect it may have on our species/society over time. We have just been bullied in to accepting it.

You are someone who looks for empirical/scientific evidence before accepting anything and yet you have a flexible worldview on this? You sir are a hypocrite.

The world is ridden with imperialist wars, genocide, exploatation, hunger, diseases, crime and natural catastrophies. A guy getting some boobs is least of my worries.

When you put it like that I totally agree with you !

I imagine most people today would be far more disturbed and confused by Rosie's fetish for old HiFi and test equipment rather than being transgender.

 

[Vladimir]

Yup.

I agree, for the moment. However in years to come you may want to add to your list a generation of bullied kids killing themselves because of what mum & dad, dad & dad, mum & mum are/do.

 

[Vladimir]

We should work on reducing bullying then.

 

[Gazzip]

Which would solve four of the serious world issues you identify. Possibly five of the issues if you consider hunger a factor resulting from the four issues caused by mankind. Think it's gonna happen?

I don't give a hoot what people do as long as there is no wider effect. My cousin is gay and she has married another woman. They have both been through IVF, both got pregnant within a month of one another, and now both have young babies. That really pi**es me off. Not because of their lesbian relationship, that as I say is their call. I worry for the wellbeing of those kids in the future and the living hell they may have to endure when they reach school age.

Like I say, test and prove. Don't just do.
