Indeed, when I started at my current job there was a Anglophile guy who was really into the Beatles and other “classic rock” groups. Being from an English speaking country he was keen to talk to me, at length, about music.

After a while I noticed that he never mentioned any groups that even had one woman in the lineup, I started asking his opinion about the likes of Janis Joplin and Heart, and he just kind of locked up.

He will now say a frosty hello to me if I prompt him directly, but that’s about it … he has two daughters who don’t talk to him apparently.
