First of all, I realize that this is going to be about a small segment of the female population, and that it probably doesn't apply to any of the members of this site, so forgive me if it all comes off sounding a little generalizing.
As a favor to a friend, I played a very short set of songs for the first time in years this weekend. I liked it even less than in the past, but that's besides the point. After the show I was showered in female attention like I haven't experienced for years. That I haven't experienced since the last time i stepped onto a stage, to be exact.
What is up with that? It's not like it was a big deal at all. A very little scene and very few people. I am hideously spoken for and I have no interest in hooking up so I don't actively seek female attention in that way. I can easily go out for a night on the town without a single girl giving me a second glance, but put me on a stage to press on a few strings and some keys and I am guaranteed to get at least a couple of very explicit sexual offers. Which I take to mean that this would be the case for anyone.
I simply don't get it. Do you think it's a gender specific thing? Is it a result of some pseudo-fame that occurs for a very limited period of time in a very specific setting? I should add that it seemingly isn't because these girls have taken an interest in the music I've played. It's not that they want to talk. I simply don't get why such an insignificant thing causes such a radical increase in promiscuity in some women.
Any thoughts on this phenomenon? Do you think female artists experience similar reactions from men (by the way, I don't consider myself an "artist", I don't even consider myself a musician, not that it matters, but I suddenly thought I sounded so conceited)?
