Coilte Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 You'd wonder how these "surveys" are compiled, and even if true (which I doubt), that someone would admit to attracting zero women. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 These things are always nonsense; it might apply to a few people but most of us will buck the trend in one way or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lojo Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I think there saying that the bass player is solid, self reliant, not needy and only attracts a mate that is deserving, who are rare things, in contrast the singer and guitar playing go for anything that breathes If the keys player is happy, he's better off than the singer and guitarist as their are many dramas that come with fickle chicks reverse the sex of anyone mentioned above if your a lady bassist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Unfortunately this analysis has been applied to those who don't play.............. Bongo basses. All toilet humour aside (especially those who play the biggest toilet context bass ever......the 'I only play a P, bob' brigade), the Bongo is the biggest chick magnet guitar ever - I've had far more 'may I touch your instrument' moments from women using that bass than any other!!!! The other basses usually attract gentleman admirers (of the instrument....bass.......) well you knew what I meant!!!

mentalextra Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I assume we are talking about "rock" music as whether you like it or not, its 'defined' by the guitars. But, Jazz for example has no "favourites", they all get the girl/boy, same with Punk. Not sure about Reggae as I would say that 'bass' has a bigger part in the sound, who knows... Just my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
