They've come out in droves. They're swarming.

Really, bluemooze? You compare me with an annoying insect? I'm not one of those piling on Chris here. But if he posts about the nude violinist in Playboy (which he has done), or complains that Julia Fischer appeared on stage in an unsexy outfit because she was pregnant (which he has also done), or that a 37-year old female violinist is no longer hot (which he did here), then he is going to have to gracefully accept a certain amount of indignant backlash (not from me, that's just too boring).
So Chris's righteous indignation at the righteous indignation of his critics is all a bit amusing. Everyone should just chill, imho.
[edited to remove good-natured attempt at humor, which doesn't seem to be appreciated at the moment.]

Playboy is pretty mainstream, and I didn't force the violist to pose for the magazine. I just reported about it.
J-Fi in a pregnancy gown - guilty as charged.
If you'll check, I don't believe I used the word "hot" with respect to JJ.
On the righteous indignation side, we've got comparisons to the Confederate flag and references to kiddie porn.
Equivalent? Not by a long shot.
The first step to s admitting you have a problem. There is no need to be ashamed or to feel judged. The photos of hot young violinists can be pretty damned exciting, after all....
I'm not sure why I even got in to any of this. I enjoy your posts, and if one comes along that doesn't interest me, I don't have to read it, right? I just think things should be kept good-natured, fun and friendly by everyone. No need to get into humorless slugfests or name calling (did someone just call me a bug?), I sure regret it when I succumb to the temptation. And I'm sorry if my kidding around offended you. That wasn't intended. Peace and love, I'm outta here.
That makes two of us. I rarely come here anymore, and I couldn't rsist this time. Kind of like watching a train wreck.. I suppose that I made it worse, which I regret. Time to find a real forum for conversations about classical music recordings and performers.

But I think you're still playing the role of the offended innocent. You couldn't resist WATCHING a train wreck? I think you were one of the main switchmen! ;-)
And, BTW, if you have truth and justice on your side, you should not regret what you posted. I know I don't. ;-)
I don't regret what I wrote. I do regret wasting time and energy on negativity, and participating in the thread was not a positive choice. I don't find the topic particularly uplifting. By contrast, I completely endorse your advocacy of and views on Liszt!
Go well-
Harry
