Originally Posted By chickendumpling Nah, mawnck, not at all. I'm just saying she gets a pass on her abilities as a flautist from me. Now, if there were a discussion of whether self-proclaimed "feminists" participate in beauty pageants, or what kind of "feminist" does, that's another thing. But teasing her on this is not for me. That's just me though.

Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan Palin's flute playing abilities aren't the big gripe I have. It's the word "flautist." Flautist. Where do they come with words like this? A person who plays a guitar is a guitarist. A person who plays a violin is a violinist. A piano player is a pianist. Why wouldn't a flute player be a flutist??? I think flute players are elitists.
