The man (on average) is definitely closer to the "jungle" phase than the woman: fighting, dominating by force, screwing, earning. Brutally speaking, humanity moves forward because the man has the penis and the woman has the uterus; the man needs to release himself, and the woman does too, but in a different way. Thus, there is an animal instinct, obviously made all the more complex and varied by social, cultural, religious, etc., superstructures.

True friendship between males and females can exist. It’s rare, a minority, but in a lifetime, it happens several times. In my opinion, it’s right, normal, and healthy to have a period, let’s say, of emotional disorder. And it's appropriate that this occurs when you’re young, with few responsibilities beyond just yourself.
So, if girls at sixteen, twenty, or even twenty-three chase after the tough guy on the motorcycle with the rebellious tuft instead of the laid-back and attentive nerd, a potential man with whom they could build a solid couple, have children, etc... that's perfectly fine. There’s time before the uterus demands its rights and the survival instinct that we also have as animals drives towards forming concrete stories.
This, of course, is a generalization and applies to most. Then there are those who are not meant to start a family and are right not to because lasting things are not for them. It’s the task of the young nerd, in facing these difficulties, to succeed in persevering in being himself and not trying on other clothes that would seem ridiculous to him, gaining confidence, waiting for time to set things right, often making the once-envied heartbreaker turn into someone without a craft for the rest of their life.

Anderson/Stolt "Invention Of Knowledge"
Voto:
Anderson is (was...) dark brown! The blonde color is a dye on his once-white hair, imposed by his robust ego.
His solo discography is flat and forgettable: without his companeros Howe and especially Squire, his music, rich in vocal melodies but extremely poor harmonically and structurally (he doesn't know how to play, he doesn't know how to harmonize, he doesn't know how to arrange), comes across as truly new age, that is to say, useless and suffocating.
Of course, he is a great singer, with a unique voice (by the way, well-preserved over the years, thanks to a healthy lifestyle and certainly not fitting the "rock" stereotypes).
Stolt is an abyssally insignificant musician... He has spent a lifetime producing music, but he doesn't have what it takes to break through the total banality and inertia of his work. He doesn't record as a singer, nor as a guitarist, nor as a songwriter.

What to say.
What to write.
What an album.
Fleetwood Mac Rumours
Voto:
One of the most overrated rock albums of all time, as far as I'm concerned. Well-crafted pop rock but nothing more, in my humble opinion. Personally, I only admire Buckingham's guitar work, personal and creative. The rest... standard. Certainly not bad, but in my opinion, not magical at all.
Hawkwind Quark Strangeness and Charm
Voto:
Hawkwind is Dave Brock's band, not Calvert's.
Brock is the principal composer, the organizer, the one who sets the direction.
Simon House is a violinist; keyboardist, if you will.
