I can offer that the way things currently are as evidence which can only be countered with a baseless conspiracy theory. If you presume that things evolved this way naturally from the primal days to an evolved society- then the current status is evidence
Anyone who thinks Moog is not intentionally trying to make the synth world more inclusive clearly hasnât seen the Moogfest lineup yet: https://www.moogfest.com/lineup

No, the burden of proof is on you as your axiom is flimsy.
You are working from the position that it is an unavoidable fact that if we divide men and women, an equal proportion of each group will be naturally interested in synthesisers.
There is simply no evidence to support this assumption. However you proceed from this you are building on shifting sand.
No kidding.
And not all female artists are overjoyed by this, believe it or not

A valid assumption, not a fact. Unless of course you have some insider knowledge.
Absolutely not. I donât know that would be the case nor am I purporting it would be.
My point is there is still a considerable disproportion of men and women in the music industry and if society is becoming more inclusive and at the same time more non-male artists are coming up then the problem has been social, never âbiologicalâ as our brains have not evolved.

lets drop the politics and talk about the actual device. Its sounds ok. The challenge is have is buying what i want verses what I will use. I always come back to my elektron devices because they all work together in harmony. Adding another device is nice but it can often be more hassle than its worth and you end up selling it down the road. I think this is a device i would end up selling. I have a Rytm so why would i need it.

There is overwhelming scientific evidence that innate gender differences in this regard are either too small to be relevant or nonexistent.
Please read https://www.google.nl/amp/s/www.wired.com/story/the-pernicious-science-of-james-damores-google-memo/amp for an introduction.
So? That doesnât change the fact that Moog is doing this intentionally.
OK, I think we reach the point where I say that you say potayto and I say potahto.
Just adding it into the broader discussion for those who believe all women fit their stereotype.
I think youâll probably get a better response in the other DFAM thread man, itâs a bit hot in here, you might go under the radar

There are sometimes non-males who take this position and that is their position to take. I donât agree with it and if I had the means to speak to Caroline Polachek I would.
I will just say that she comes from a very, very privileged position.
There is a mountain of evidence in the other direction. You have the worrying air of someone drawn to confirmation bias.

No. Weâre not.
Post it. Seriously.
Right⌠so women only have valid opinions when they lack privilege. So is this about women or privilege.

No, there isnât. You really might want to read the article I suggested and do some research into this topic.
