"I think heavy metal is masculine only in so much as body building is masculine, it is the male side of a not-particularly-impressive trait, or perhaps misguided. Now pre-war Delta blues, that's manly."

"Not many teenagers rockin' the metal these days, big guy.  Hell, Lemmy Kilmister is in his mid 60s', the guys in Overkill just put out a new album and they're all in their 50s', for examples. "

"Nicely put. At the centre of the hardcore ethos is hard work, respect for yourself and others and standing up for your beliefs. All good masculine values in my book."

"It's Clobberin' Time! Sick Of It All! I think people have a very narrow understanding of metal and punk music. For instance, associating it with adolescence. There are plenty of older metallers and punks. Most of the musicians in metal…"

"Aside from the ear-bleeding volumes of this genre, one of the problems is most men the world over don't have 'viking roots'. As far as 'hunter instinct' you could make the case that African and Latin-American music…"

"If listening to a specific genre to appear tough is weak, it is equally as weak to tout ones favorite genre as the "most masculine"--it's just fanboy posing."
