I sought one, tiny, solitary, itsy-bitsy url to a source - which Andante claimed exists - showing a possible link between alleged female musical incompetence, compared to men, traceable to the constitution of the female brain. Dear old Andante wriggled like ferret in a sack, moaned about 'vitriolic attacks', back-pedaled, erupted into blue ink and size 5 font, and laid down a smokescreen like the Battleship Potemkin; all because he didn't possess such a link, only prejudice, and was too stubborn to admit it.
That's not my fault, and I'm surprised you're amazed.
What could be more normal than asking someone to source a controversial claim, made on a bulletin board devoted to online discussion? It would be ‘amazing’ if no one had done so.
