PavlovsCat Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) I'm still trying to persuade my wife that this is scientific. Although, I actually really haven't been a musician in 22 years, so I suppose my time has passed... https://www.musicradar.com/news/music-more-attractive-study Edited January 18, 2023 by PavlovsCat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Dickens Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) Well, my wife sings, plays guitar, dabbles with keyboard, ukulele, doumbek and she's smoking hot. If that isn't incontrovertible proof right there, I don't know what is. Edited January 18, 2023 by Byron Dickens 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notes_Norton Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 When I was in Junior High School, I was in the school band, but after school I was in a rock and roll band. We were terrible, but so was everybody else at the time. We practiced and practiced trying our best to figure out the hit songs of the day (by ear, it was the dark ages) and play them. We got our first gig at a school dance. There I was on the stage with my best friends, playing with 90% energy and 10% technique. I was having the time of my life, and when I looked down off stage, that cute girl who didn't even acknowledge my existence in English class was "making eyes" at me. And at the end of the night they paid me $10 (which bought about what $100 does today). That's when I said, "This is what I want to do for the rest of my life!!!" I was on the road after the free-love revolution and before AIDS put a ***** on that movement, and every girl I've ever met was introduced to me by my saxophone (*****ophone), including the best one of all, who I married. She is also a musician, and my duo partner since 1985. I don't need no stinkin' scientific proof, I have personal experience. I made love to women who were way above my pay grade.

Amicus717 Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Yeah, my wife has worked as a pro -- singer and theatre work -- and she's very good (although I may have a bias). She's also smoking hot. And that's not bias -- everyone else thinks so too, and when they look at her and then me, they go: "dude...seriously, how...?" At which point she says: "we worked together for years as musicians, and he's awesome to play with." And then folks nod slowly: "ah...ok" Edited January 19, 2023 by Amicus717 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitekrazy Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 The music industry had always been about the visual. It reminds of seeing videos of EVH son who may be even more talented than his dad. People mentioned his weight but not the music ability. BTW I'm living proof that study is bogus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB01 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 Is this the same study that concluded guys who work in IT have more ***** than anyone else? However, what the questionnaire omitted to specify was that there must be someone else in the room at the time. ??? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That other someone that must be in the room for this to work is called alcohol! But I definitely agree that getting on stage and playing music well absolutely does has an impact on attractiveness based on my years playing professionally. I've seen people attracted to musicians and singers that I think otherwise would not have occurred. So while I can't speak to whether this is a scientifically valid study, I seriously think that there is an extra appeal of musicians and performers on audiences over their not being in that role.

No study needed to conclude that guys who work in IT have more sugar than anyone else. (With coffee being a close second!) As for the what the sentence with the censorship is actually saying, well, there's this well-known joke about computer nerds! ? "S ex? Oh yeah! I have a LOT of s ex! Heck, I had s ex five times last night alone! But I do mean alone... ?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyB01 Posted January 21, 2023 Share Posted January 21, 2023 The auto-censored word had three letters and rhymed with rex - really? Agree with the sentiment though, picking up a guitar and playing or sitting at a piano (even busking) and you're in with a chance. Write a (good) song for someone and you're made.

Quick Math Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 Is it so even when you play heavy metal or anything aggressive? Someone on the internet said like when you play drums, you are cool or attractive until you start to play double bass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
