That's not true. I'm as lady-like as spitting and public sex. And as much as I respect the musical nature of classical (or rather, traditional, as classical is too narrow a definition) music, I can't say I'm a fan of it on the whole. None the less, Beethoven was damn talented.
My adoration for violin has been there for years, and the affair with cellos really started once I discovered Apocalyptica.
A friend of mine gets extremely pissy if you mention "classical" music, saying that it as a genre doesn't exist. Or maybe he's talking about the period. He's very well versed in musicology and his rants make perfect sense to me. At least until he gets into the jargon.
