the problem is that the minds of men and women work differently, due to the specialization they had in the course of evolution.
men's minds work linearly: stalk the prey - surround it - attack - kill
women's minds work like networks: keep the flame going - Uglug, stay away from the meat - where is the stone to grind flour with? - the pelts need some cleaning too - breastfeed Aglag - Uglug, what did I tell you! - keep the flame going again - grind flour - Uglug, don't hit the dog - I have to collect some herbs again - and Oglog will probably want to have sex with me again tonight, but I'll tell him I have a headache - Uglug, stop sucking that bone - keep flame going

For me the emotions that come when I listen to music are strangely similar of when I'm with the women I love...

I can definitely relate with you. It's true that prog and women spark entirely different emotions. There's something about women or being in a relationship that makes me feel happier, and almost steer away from the hardore music. Yet, when the breakup finally arrives, that's when I turn off the Steve Winwood and start blasting Rise Against again. Music will always be your lover!

oh my music and women...
i confess i tried to read the first post twice and i still do no understand it....but from other things people wrote in here i´d like to write some things about relationships.
One of the major things for a relationship to work is the acceptance of the other as he/she is. That´s something some people learn the hard way, but the reality is that every partner has something the other partner doesn´t like or would like to change. If these issues are minor that might not be a problem but if they are core-issues they can really be a pain in the a**. For example i once dated a girl who was catholic (i´m an atheist) and she once said to me that my biggest problem was that i was an atheist. I was younger and at that time those kind of comments just started to raise an issue between the two of us (being an atheist was a big atribute in the definition of my identity). i never wanted her to change - i accepted it - but somehow i knew that issue would destroy our relationship (and 2 and a half years later) it did (of course not that issue alone).
The thing is, we must know ourselves very well to be able to understand what things are we able to accept in a partner. i would never dump a women because she has different musical preferences. But in the the first place it would be unlikely for me to date a women who liked gangsta rap....
I´m more compelled to listen to music that can create or induce an emotional state (like some of you). (That is the reason why i love anathema so much). Music is a powerful mean to meet people who share at least a certain degree of sensibility (musical sensibility), but for me it isn´t all in a relationship. Good communication is the key...

"when routine bites hard and ambitions are low,
and resentment rides high but emotions won´t grow
And we´re changing our ways, taking different roads..
Then love, love will tear us apart again.."

I was listening to Supper's Ready today (were full moon =D) on my Mp3.
(Walking across the sitting-room, I turn the television off.
Sitting beside you, I look into your eyes.
As the sound of motor cars fades in the night time,
I swear I saw your face change, it didn't seem quite right.
...And it's hello babe with your guardian eyes so blue
Hey my baby don't you know our love is true.)
While I sang the first part of the song (the lines above) a beautiful woman passed me by and said it sounded nice and that I sang well

Frankly I have always argued that music should express emotions and must be an integral part of my approach to the pure enjoyment of the same. If a song I do not transmit emotions (no matter how strong) I do not like it. In my unfortunate life (as only I can be able to say so) I have had different experiences that have prompted me to say some basic concepts like to have a positive approach to life. In music I discovered that the Prog created in me a positive charge, for free pass through difficult moments.
Frankly, especially in recent years, I had many problems. That I passed with our loved music and the with the few friends who I truly be considered in terms of understanding what they felt.
First I have to make an excursus outside the music. In fact I must say that my friends are all Metallers or Prog Metallers or, still, bikers. With the most sincere friends I have shared moments of my life.
With other friends I shared only a beer. I could close the speech here but ... I would, for a moment, to clarify that in my life I had more satisfaction when I managed to have friendly relations with the girls or womens.
I can not understand why. Yet it is with the other half of the sky that I had and have better relationships.
Do not think that I speak of relationships based on sex. Why do I seek the true friendship. With two persons was true love. With the first person... Well... With the first person I was stupid. I liked it a lot and I must say that I had caught his attention. But because the company that school (and that she was forced to attend) have never come out with her. In truth, I tried to fly over but after a short time I realized that I could not manage to have a serious relationship with her. I was 19 years and her 16... Today I learned that's wrong... And the thing opened in me a big wound. With the second person... I will tell you that I did not understand why the fate we had taken two roads so different. But I think it's been better so!
With women is so me. When they try me I do not find. When I try... Yet the first kiss with the first person (I prefer not to make the names...) was the most profound experience of my life!
With the music works more or less like this. And I can not say that this is wrong. Just makes me feel alone.
The Prog is not a beautiful woman. My sensibility leads me to love more female voices, that I almost can not away from women.Is this a bad thing? Probably in a woman I search the depths. And when I think I understand that in the women I trying done that powerful fluid that drives two people to combine their genes to form a new life.
Certainly not all women send me through the spiked heels, miniskirts and breathtaking necklines.
If I am speaking of music... As I have said for women goes for music. That's why in my reviews speak too often of emotions and feeling. It is my fault, I know very well.
Compared Prog to a beautiful woman? I am not saying that. Yet for me is a means to understand the Prog. And also the women.
This Christmas I decided to raise my soul to heaven and declare that never fails to have what I'm in women (except in my mother). But I find all this in Prog?

Awww Mandrakeroot,
You seem so sweet, hurt yet so cute.
I do have to disagree with you in terms that prog that it is not about beautiful women, at times it's an escape, the moozik takes you to a different place especially if you let yourself go become free while listening through headphones, let your feelings go especially if the music is so good you feel it right from the gut, close your eyes and it will take you into the most wonderful journey :) hugs xxxxx

Right, notwithstanding that vegetarians have no requirement to surround their prey and attack say ferocious lettuce or ironic runner beans, is the atavistic female deity a.k.a. Baldjean (referencing an exclusively male phenomenon) saying that the primordial breadwinner and provident teat is the female but the carnivorous conquering villain is the male?
Warning: there are traces of sarcasm in this post

All this talk about prey is making me hungry. I might have to dominate and conquer a mid-morning snack in a bit.
