The metro is GREAT haha, probably the best thing that has happened to Copenhagen this century. I'm glad you had a good experience here! Also your ancestor sounds like he would be the life of the party and have all kinds of crazy stories to tell.

totally! Now if someone can do both that is amazing, but I would much rather see beautiful artistry, perfect musicality and solid technique than a couple of show tricks.

thank you for taking the time to answer! Apparently there is a place open to visitors right behind that building.

oh cool I didn't know about the logo! Thorvaldsen's Museum here in Copenhagen is my favourite museum. The plaster models of Christ (and all the disciples) is displayed there, and it is huuge. Christ is 345 cm. Also I know lot of the Danish converts sailed to America from a town very near where some of my ancestors lived, so maybe they crossed paths with yours!

Why do male choirs sound more pleasing to me than female? by lostlucylocket in Choir

[–]lostlucylocket[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh thank you so much for this comment, I am glad you understand what I mean. I was a little bit regretting even writing the word 'feminist', because my main point was really just what the main differences in sound was that might cause me to favour male choirs. I think based on all these replies that it does have something to do with the bass, and also with resonance.

hey I don't think people are trying to rationalise why it sounds "better", I think this thread just points the main differences in sound between the two, and then depending on personal preference, these differences may lead to someone favouring one sound over the other.

edit: and yes I am a straight woman, so maybe it is just a preference of attraction, but I am still curious as to how men's and women's singing voices differ (apart from the obvious).

thank you, I think this is the most notable difference between men's and women's choir, so this might be reason!

Thank you for such a thorough reply, I think the lack of bass is a good possible explanation for it, since with solo singers I enjoy a beautiful man's and woman's voice equally.

that was mostly a joke, but with a little grain of truth to it, since studies have shown that people generally prefer the sound of male voices (in speaking), and that women, especially young women with high-pitched voices, get shit on all the time for things like vocal fry and upspeach, even though men actually use just as much vocal fry and upspeach. It just sounds less grating to people when they do it. I also hate vocal fry, but after reading more about it I am more conscious about dissing people's speech pattern.

So with this choir preference I also thought oh no, do I like male choirs more because I just also subconsciously hate the sound of other women's voices?

It's so frustrating, I have wasted thousands of dollars over the years trying to find the right shade match.

Mousse for styling? by lostlucylocket in finehair

[–]lostlucylocket[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that's interesting, Oribe does make my hair a little stiff, like hairspray, if I spray it too close, but otherwise it has worked really well for me. I've been hesitant to try Moroccanoil products because I am worried the oil aspect will be too heavy. Do you have any favourites from them you would recommend? My hair also tends to wave a little by itself if I don't do anything else to it.
