My nice wee dad sent me for guitar and piano lessons when i was a wean i gave up on the piano after she told my dad he was wasting his money

I was always good at playing the stereo. It didn't make any difference that I knew of.

Dude, I shred the stereo, and it sounds great everytime!

Thanks rickymouse I literally laughed at your reply.

Yep, I fell for the musician's magic when I was a youngster. In my twenties I dated a drummer for a while. It was cool to go to gigs and hear the girls sitting behind me ooh-ing and ahh-ing over the cute drummer. In between sets, he would come over to my table and hug and kiss on me. Those girls got reeeeal quite after that. I loved it.

Having said that, the relationship didn't last very long. Not because he was a poor drummer in a local band, but because he was a bit immature (Peter Pan syndrome). I married a man who was a grown up. He just so happens to play guitar in his spare time, as a hobby. Pretty good at it too.

I don't like to generalize. But if a guy had a guitar, I'd certainly have a second look. And a third. If I found out he couldn't play, I'd run in the other direction, though! I dated MANY musicians and singers in my youth, but the man I married plays violin and can't carry a tune in a bucket.

Why a guitar?

Would any stringed instrument do the trick?

Like a lute?

Or maybe a Sitar?

Guitars are sexy... they give off a "bad boy" image... which women drool over...

those other instruments are just weird...

I don't think a lute or sitar packs the same punch to a young woman. Too... strange. The whole romanticism of dating the lead singer or guitar player in a band (which I did many times) just can't be compared to an instrument we may not even recognize.

Remember, Tiny Tim played a ukelele...

Ironically enough... the GF actually has a pic of me playing a guitar on her wall paper...

I don't even really play anymore... Nor do I have a guitar...

but she loves that pic...

Take it from experience.... women love a guy with a guitar...

LOVE IT!

I guess I don't get it then. would't molotov cocktails put off a 'bad boy' image too?

The little kid in the childs book 'Abiyoyo' played a ukulele and put a giant to sleep with it, now thats POWER!

We like "bad boys", but not THAT bad!

Something about the WAY a guy plays guitar and how he holds it and handles it, I think. Get my drift?

So you don't mind being held by your neck and smashed on the floor?

Cute...

No, not really... I mean, whats different from the way a guy holds a guitar than they way a woman holds one?

But, unfortunately, It looks like this study was pretty accurate after all.
women, for the most part it seems, are really that shallow. Hear that boys! grab a guitar and start raking in thos digits! that's all it takes!

Pretty funny though. I actually laughed when I heard this story on the radio last night.

Well, I'm not usually attracted to women, so if it's a woman holding a guitar, it's just not the same. Nice to look at, but wouldn't "fire me up".

And I don't speak for any women other than myself - In my youth - When I was impulsive and kinda wild.

That's not all it takes. You gotta be able to play it. And that takes discipline and passion.

not exactly. So it's a phallic thing then? that deepens the mystery here as i can't understand what a woman would find appealing about some guy jerking his way up and down something they see as a phallic symbol, especially since said phallic symbology was not attached to the mans own body i.e. it is a foreign implement (phallic symbol)

wierd.

My view of guitars has been fully revolutionized.

Along the same lines of thought...

Whats the difference between the way a woman wares a bikini.... and the way a guy does?

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say 'body hair'

but that never stopped any 76 year old metal detector afficionados.

just ask anyone at any beach anywhere ever!
