Ohhhhh fuck... girls are so stupid. In general. I'm not sexist... guys are equally stupid and pathetic, but in different, equally pathetic ways.
But I've never actually met a girl with really good taste in music, except over the fucking internet. They just don't seem to exist... and the ones with good taste don't seem nearly as passionate about it as I am, or GUYS that I know are.
And looking through my CD (and MP3) collection, it's 99.99999999999999999% male dominated. Girls just... don't have it, musically... or something... I can't figure it out.

I agree with you Ophecks. I can't think of one good girl / woman music artist. I will probably be booed for saying this but Sarah McGlauclan (however you spell it) is good at times...not all! but sometimes.
For electronica, I only know of Andrea Parker...and even then its not too good...

Ok, so yes I agree even though I am an 19 yr old girl myself, I do agree. Thats probably why all my friends are guys cause girls are to narrow minded, dont like the same music and music to my is EVERYTHING!!
BUT I have a question, where are the guys who like the same music?? the guys here are ghetto, gay, or just not my type.
So it goes both ways.

i disagree about women musicians, there aren't nearly as many talented females as males but their are some..
Siouxsie Sioux Tori Amos Bjork Diamanda Galas Kate Bush Elizabeth Fraser Lisa Gerrard
to name a few, you may not like all of these but you can't say they all aren't talented artists.

And Sinead O'Connor... And Liz Frazer of the Cocteaus... And Tracey Thorn...
I could go on...there's load of great woman musicians...
Anyway, we're in a period of a lot of changes of the balances between the sexes...there's still a lot of sexism out there, even if it's more hidden that it once was, and it's gonna take time before things get properly balanced...

I live with my good friend Eduard and his girlfriend Kristen. Eduard is a producer and Kristen is a singer and plays keyboard, all kinds of instrument through a sound module, and our friend Katya has played violin for 18yrs and she also plays keyboard. They have a group called The Stove. Im so jealous because the girls i hang out with can compose piano, basslines etc on the keyboard, there songs are really good musically and they both love aphex twin. Katya almost started crying over the piano tracks on druqks, because some of them were so good. I have a sampler and a drummachine i can program some good hip hop breaks but i cant compose piano, basslines etc.
Wish i could find a girlfriend as talented and with such good taste in music as them that but thats a different story. At least the girls i chill with like good music.
Hope you meet some girls with good taste in music Aminal.
I'll try to post some of The Stoves songs so all of you can hear them.

I totally agree about girls music, my sister is 19 and still listens to Britney, and all her favourite songs are TOP 40 stuff. But not all girls at my school are like that, one of my friends (whose a girl) listens to punk, some listen to metal, and so fourth.

I think it's all some strange feminin thing to be accepted. They must think they'll be accepted and that guys will think they look good if they're just like everyone else. Most female hide there personality to be accepted. Then there the few that don't give a damn. Eventually most of them should grow up...But I still hate the music...

Ok, heres a little math for the girl thing, as far as shitty music, it just happens.
Here it is: Girls=money Definately, girls take a lot of money,
And, as we all know: Time=money,
Money=the root of all evil,
Therefore, we can conclude that: Girls=evil.

ACK
this thread is totally infuriating!!!
SO MANY GENERALIZATIONS!!!!!!
why are you guys looking for someone into the same damn thing you are into?? you should find someone you like, and EXPOSE them to interesting music.....no matter what it is. hopefully they will like something.....maybe aphex, maybe autechre, plaid, squarepusher....etc.
girls = money is SHIT.....men = just AS much money !!
you need to get into the PRESENT and see that women pay for as much stuff as men, you guys are in some old fashioned world. i don't expect my BF to pay for everything, how fair is that ?!?! most REASONABLE girls feel the same way.
you guys need A LOT more experience with girls IMO, because you base your beliefs not on REAL experiences but IDEAS of what you think things are like.
my ADVICE......find someone you like, and introduce her/him to interesting music....SEE what happens and go from there.
PS....one thing i WILL agree on, is like BASEBALL STATS (as an example) most women are not interested in the intricacies of ANY music.....you guys get into each and every note, which is cool as hell and interesting to read about, but what i think about when i listen to music....is either lyrics which might be cool.....OR....how the music sounds, how it makes me feel....it is VERY much an emotional response UNLIKE some men!!

I approach music in a similar way to the way LeCoeur does. though with me, it's a bit more about imagery and aesethetics than it is about emotion (though I am definitely quite emotional about music). I don't think that a note for note interpretation of music is effective because music is all about context.
