Who really cares if WAF is sexist or not? There aren’t many complaints about this, so why Even bring it up. In our house, my wife has always accommodated my equipment in the living room, perhaps I am lucky. Over the years, I have had some Godawful ugly speakers in the living room and never a peep from her. At that time it was all about the “sound”, but now it is the sound and astethitcs.
Is Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF) sexist?
Believe our addictive hobby is primarily male dominated. The technical aspects seem to appeal more to men. Or is that in and of itself sexist. There are now a few knowledgeable and astute women reviewers. I am always intrigued by the comments off the few women who identify themselves by name on the Forum. One in particular is quite long winded. I'm sure this has nothing to do with her sex. Although he/she has a name which could be male or female. I always love it when my wife comes to look at the record sleeve of the vinyl playing and rely on her opinion of the fidelity. Not to mention desire and count on her approval of new purchases. But is she also addicted? I don't think so. Does that have anything to do with being a woman. I don't think so. Does she care about the fine nuances? She says not. I would love to hear from women and anyone on this. WAF? I care a lot what things look like. HAF?
