[Moderating]

What’s not allowed is to bring up a woman’s (or a man’s) attractiveness in a context where it’s not relevant. Attractiveness is relevant for a performer, so this isn’t a big problem in this case. That said, even for a performer, talent is even more relevant than attractiveness, so saying “talented” instead, or **squeegee** ’s proposed topic, would have been even better.

I would have suggested “Hot Chick’s Cool Licks”, myself.

I’m not arguing or disagreeing with what you said but this thread has 600+ views. Maybe “attractive woman” in the thread title drew some attention to the talented guitarist and a few people that had not previously heard of her may check out some of her other stuff and perhaps become fans. I’m sure the artist would not have a problem with this.  
In any event I promise to be more conscious of objectifying language in the future and will do better.

Also wanted to say that (as a vintage guitar nerd) seeing and hearing that beautiful warhorse of a Strat is as pleasurable as anything else in that video.

A lot of guys in music don’t look good starting with Mick Jagger. I guess women are attracted to his bank balance. 🙂

No. They are attracted to things not obvious to you, being (I’m guessing) a straight male. You are making stupid insulting assumptions about women.

I didn’t even look at the video, because of the way it was titled. For all I knew it would be a woman in a bikini, with enhanced breasts. Didn’t want to see it. Thought it was probably another fucking misogynist ooh ooh titties post.

And THAT is why the title of the post was offensive to me personally. I have no idea of the content.

Watch it and then tell me if you are offended. If you are, I’ll accept that. Sometimes people turn out looking pretty good. Doesn’t mean they are good people or good at anything but sometimes they look OK and have talent or abilities. I can see very clearly why you would make such assumptions based on my thread title. I was drinking and didn’t give it much thought. Give the artist a chance. May not be your preference music wise but I hate thinking you won’t give the artist a look because of my poorly worded thread title.

Not my ordinary music but enjoyable video. Her “attractiveness” had zero to do with the enjoyability for me though – and for _a lot of other people you forgot existed._

The trouble with the title is also that it invited misogynist comments which indeed accepted the invitation. Hot chick? Women attracted to a bank balance?

Fuck it all.

“a lot of people you forgot existed”

I’m a pretty homely guy myself so it’s not like I’m forgetting. It’s my life.
