This just in: BBC Radio Execs sexist fuckwits

Male taste in music more intellectual.

I know it's been my experience that as a unit, women totally don't give a rats ass about the production side of the business. This is trufax!

You know, it might benefit men in positions of authority to avoid boycotts and death threats by making sweeping proclamations about How Things Seem. Does it appear to some dude in an office like girls are bored by conversations about production studios and recording devices? Probably. Because in his own anecdotal--limited--experience of the world at large, all the chicks he knows are more interested in blowing some ratty emo guitarist in a dimly lit, damp venue bathroom, but I am here to declare from on high that those are the sorts of attitudes that make chicks like me key dudes' cars and gossip to my friends about how CERTAIN PEOPLE are worthless (don't discount the girl gossip chain of anti-sexist solidarity).

I think where men get confused here is that often obsessive male music fans get caught up in this sort of marginalia and trivia because it's a way to interact with each other and *musicians* in a apparently meaningful and insidery way. It's coin in the I'm As Cool As You stakes. Girls don't have to truck in that coin because by default they’re already cool--they have what the guys who aren't inclined towards other guys probably learned about music to get in the first place (see: that dimly lit, damp venue bathroom).

Do you like how I turned sexist rhetoric around to make it equally as a sexist from the other side? Yes? Good.

Could you stop stereotyping all women by the Adult Contemp demo? But even if I do want to listen to John Mayer and envision a sexist radio host sweet-talking me to sleep at night doesn't mean I can't also talk to you about sound quality and compression.
