The Sound of Sex

I recently started this fling with a guy who plays the violin. It started as a small thing, but during the last weeks we’ve been seeing each other weekly. He’s funny and smart – and  he plays in an upcoming band. He plays really well and he is studying in the Rhythmic Music Conservatory. And furthermore – he’s amazing in bed!

When I told my friends, Alma and Carla, about him, they were quiet excited. But when I said, that he was a musician and he played the violin, they shook their heads and Carla said: “The violin? That’s just… kind of gay. No, I totally get turned on by drummers. They got the rhythm if you know what I mean?”  Then Alma applied: “Agree! But I really fancy bass players. They are so sweet and warm. They are not like ordinary guitar-players. I kind of connect their instrument with their personality.” 
We began to discuss our different preferences regarding musicians. Personally I believe that the sexiest instrument you can play (and this goes for both men and women) is the saxophone. On second place I got the guitar and then drums. Carla’s list was short: drums, drums, drums. And if she was forced to choose another instrument? – The lead singer. Alma’s list went: bass, saxophone, and every instrument playing jazz. But as she said: maybe we don’t choose the instrument, maybe the instrument symbolizes the kind of boys we girls go for; the drummer = the funny, extrovert kind of guy, with a crooked smile and lots of friends. The bassist = the calm, romantic guy, with loveable humour and a grounded attitude. The saxophonist = knows he’s cute; he’s sympathetic and charming. The violinist = apparently gay, but also elegant, self-absorbed and with pointy shoes. 

Even though Alma and Carla apparently disagreed with me, I still believe that my musician is hot. He may not be the hottest guy, but in the end that doesn’t matter as long as the sex is good. And I can assure you, he makes the birds sing!
