"But, you know, you gotta admit, girls in bands are sexy..."

There's something about the logic of this statement, spoken to a female musician, that makes me want to give the speaker a Phillipine Water Cure with a bottomless spigot of Labatt's Lite. As if "girls" get turned on walking through department stores, you know, looking at all that girls' underwear all over the place. Sometimes I am deeply ashamed to be male.
