So did yu listen to the song I make on Myspace with the player? Or are you being mean to me as a person? Please listen then you can say what needs to happen.

what the hell does being a girl have to do with needing help ?

that's the sound of Shulamith Firestone rolling over in her grave.

great. just what we need. more sisters claiming their gender to get help with software. you could have just as easily just asked your question without succumbing to the gender stereotype of "oh no i'm a girl. i need boys to help me with my software issues!"

instead you got a bunch of pasty white boys who never see the sun wanting to climb all over you.

*sigh*

it's like feminism never happened...

(i own a toolbox AND taught myself how to spin. fancy that...good thing these tits didn't get in the way, huh?)

Kabuki read me right... my subject title was a joke...

kabuki wrote:I took her thread title as a sort of self-effacing joke. Like "Help me, I'm a girl" even though she has more music to show than most of us (including myself), so she obviously isn't helpless. Basic sarcasm.

If she was homely, she wouldn't have ellicited all the wank-talk. She just happens to be pretty. In a forum full of geeks on computers.

It would be like someone going into a Star Trek forum with a title that reads "I have O'Hura's thong!!!" even though we all know O'Hura wore granny panties.

(Sorry for the rambling. Pretty girls make me all confused and clumsy)

I posted my questions on the Abelton forum because I thought I would be sure to find a plethora of hip, talented beat makers who enjoyed helping each other out with technical and creative issues.

After checking out the forum for a few days before posting, it was apparent that you were friendly and helpful, but I found it odd that there was such a shortage of women amongst such an enthusiastic group of Live users. It occurred to me that by making a joke as to a female announcing her arrival in a fraternity house, I might get some smiles while getting my questions answered promptly...

I didn't know that my title would cause such a bar room brawl!

Luckily, I have a sense of humor and am quite used to hanging with the boys- In and Out of the studio...

So for any of you that are questioning my gender, integrity or intention... I assure you I'm for real, a real female Live user... and after
enduring 72 hours of endless hazing, I think I've passed initiation, wouldn't you agree?

May I be granted honorary membership into your cigar smoking, whiskey drinking, Live strictly "Men's Only" establishment?

Let the board meeting commence....

what may have been meant as a joke, obviously riled the frat-like hormonal mentality of the boys to the point where bum and fat girl pics were posted...really brought out the beast...ooops...best in the boys, didn't it?

sarcasm is lovely, but when it (however unintentionally) reinforces sterotypes, methinks the intention gets lost amongst the reality of a male-dominant culture.

When I first logged on to the forums, I got a few sily jokes about my screenname, lol. Im mostly a lurker, looking for information - I usually post when there are betas. I'm a RL girl too.
