I must say that I made the unfortunate mistake of not dating the sexiest
little idm girl I ever met. . . but we did stay friends

I seem to surround myself with a large percentage of women bystanders and
eventually I woo them all over towards a more idm / experimental type of
music.  Typically this involves little woo-ing because most of the women
are already into electronic forms of music of one sort or another, so to
move them over to a much more interesting style of electronic/machine based
music doesnt take much.

I personally know many more female IDMers than male IDMers. . .whenever I
head out to a show I usually travel amongst an a group of ladies who are
quite addicted to such music (and the men who make it).  I seem to be in
the minority though from the posts I have read this evening.... one of my
best friends, Gwen, even knew to get me some Autechre, Coldcut, and a Mouse
on mars cd for my birthday (she even talked me out of Brace Yourself, which
goes to show that one cannot have enough musically opinionated friends).

So I guess I really am as lucky as they keep telling me (except when I get
a new girlfriend, what is it about female friends that makes them always
hate your new girlfriends?)

Oh well, guess thats why im single again, they must know something I dont :)

Well, just my $0.01
