One of the most simply, humorously, and emotionally told stories regarding the plight of the handicapped I've ever heard in a song...

Double whammy: great music and a lady who had no need for "feminists" at all - if you can believe history and the script.
To me, it sort of indicates that the noisy warfare that came out of the 60s/70s created not strong women, but weak ones that were aware of but one emotional characteristic: insecurity. As I have said before, I never knew a woman of my generation who didn't know how to handle a situation.

Incidentally, the very first scene with Peck could come right out of Sarah Moon shooting for Nova (the shot with the three faces through the small window frames).
I trust this reproduction here is okay under reference regulations, and no commercial gain intended.

It's a tricky one: how to avoid coddling without greenlighting arsehole. Not dissimilar to dealing with cancer: we can cut, burn & chemo it out, but maybe it's more effective in the long run to train our immune systems to recognize cancer cells as intruders to be got rid of. Then make that recognition something that can be inherited.
One of my (female) scientist friends insists that the most effective way to deal with male jerkitude is by refusing to breed with jerks. Keep their debased genes out of the pool. I tend to agree.

As likely to succeed as keeping female jerks out of the gene pool. Maybe the best we can hope for is they breed with each other.
Though I doubt that will give the rest us any peace either.

Yes, it has no resolution that I can imagine. It's all too complex. It can depend on education, peer situation, alcohol intake, whether transmitted signals are indeed being transmitted or simply imagined or misunderstood.
Also, I think one has to define the matter, and decide whether a wolf whistle is a possibly flattering sign of appreciation or an attack. How in hell does one manage that? By banning any interaction between people not formerly formally introduced? Even in the brief length of this conversation there have been differences pointed out in how women see the same things.
I'd think the sensible approach is down to the usual one of the sticks and stones philosophy: look and say what you like, if not rude, but better not think of touching anything. The alternative is to ignore everybody and to retreat into little personal shells even smaller than the ones we already inhabit. It would, at the very least, eventually cure global warming.

Well I've always felt wolf whistles and the like distasteful, but the new Victorian morality is worse. The blue stocking leaders in the US and elsewhere would reform the world after their own image. Alas these snowflakes with their sense entitlement and moral indignation have lost a sense of kindness to others. When you lose that, what you get instead is hypocrisy.
So they wouldn't dream paying the women of their servant classes a living wage. Their cleaners, restaurant staff, back room workers at Amazon. They will happily send working women across the country to the wall if it means saving a few dollars on the price of the next iPhone.

Thanks for the link, David!
He was known to us in Scotland during the 50s. New Orleans jazz was the first real style of music I identified as different to the general stream of popular music, followed by the first exposure to the Bill Haley classic: Rock Around The Clock, which became, after a while, the overpowering influence with most of what was the youth of the times. Enter Elvis, Jerry Lee and Chuck, and N.O. jazz was pretty much done in the U.K.
Thanks again, it was a pleasure to hear and to remember the people I had in my life in those magical times.

As I wrote before, I never knew a woman who couldn't get what, or to where she wanted to be, all by herself.
There has ever been the fringes-of-sanity group in society; this is but another, possibly very dangerous one. As one of the writers mentioned, we are into trial by media and condemnation without real trial. How novel, how advanced.
And it's spreading. Steven Seagal is now accused of taking down an actress's top, whilst she was in his bedroom, supposedly "getting to know you" before a part in some production, and then starting to unzip. As she broke into tears (she recounts) he was horrified and desisted... clearly a hardened (no pun intended) rapìst.
Photographers Mario Testino and Bruce Weber are out of Condé Nast because of accusations from male models... accusations, not proven cases. And this is corpulent man on usually well-developed man at his physical peak, so where the threat of sexual violence or rape? Most of these guys could flatten either snapper at will.
Political correctness. No good will come of it - it never has yet.
-
I'm all for outing abusers. Doing so without falling into self-righteous excess…I'm hoping there's enough self-reflection in this situation to avoid the worst of that.
-Dave-

Political correctness. No good will come of it - it never has yet.
For you to speak for all women as if you know better what it takes for a woman to make it in the workplace is about as politically incorrect (and misinformed) as you can possibly get. You assume too much especially since it appears in your statements you base your assertions just on what you've observed only of the few women you've encountered in the workplace.
Rob, there's no way you've seen it all in all possible situations for women. You try working next to Brown and Root contractors as a woman living in Texas and see if you think women know their way around getting what they want in the workplace. My wife experienced so much non-sexual abuse because she was a woman around men who constantly reminded her she needed to be in the kitchen cooking and taking care of her babies that it contributed to our divorce.
It's real simple, folks!.. Whether man or woman when at work you treat everyone with respect and not as an opportunity to assert power and position over another co-worker no matter what kind of job be it contracted or full time employment.
And how did a music thread turn into the "MeTOO" thread?
-
At the risk of getting embroiled in something I'd rather avoid, if you reread my words I speak about "women I have known" and as I lived in countries other than your own, who knows what gives?
Of course I sound politically incorrect; I hate the ethic because it assumes the worst in everything and everyone. It's for losers, as Mr T might have said. That does not even begin to suggest that I support chauvinistic and bad-mannered male sexual behaviour which I did sometimes, if rarely, see in the pre-photography workplace I inhabited: engineering. Tell you something: some of the female machinists could teach anybody how to swear and talk dirty; quite an eye-opener for a kid just out of a good school who never wanted to be an engineer but had little choice in his particular circumstances.
In the end, nothing is set in stone, and there are as many pleasant people around in all social levels as there are those of the opposite persuasion. The social tragedy of political correctness and what it leads to is, in my mind, drawn out into public gaze by the existence of dating sites. They are a sad witness to the decline in social skills and, now that I read and hear of all these metoo folks, the only way some poor guy will ever find the nerve to ask a woman out. How bloody tragic you now need sites to do what others did with little difficulty from the year 0. How strange to have to live in fear of being nice to a member of the opposite sex unless she marks her ground by registering on the Internet to say so.
Thank God I lived most of my life in saner times.
-
As usual you deflected and diluted the seriousness of my point and reduced it to something as small and simple as dating do's and don't's and then blame political correctness as the culprit for the misunderstanding and overreach.
You see I was in the dark as well about my situation with my wife during the mid '80's seeing it as just an isolated incident: [THAT IS WHAT IS IMPORTANT]. But now I saw how many women (and men) in the MeToo movement came forth and made a stand that suggested this is far more prevalent (almost expected behavior of men in power) and thus hidden from society because people's livelihoods counted on it remaining in the dark.
The livelihoods of the perps and the tons of money they'ld lose if found out about was far more important to protect. It's not enough these guys made plenty of money, they also needed to degrade and take the dignity away from these women. And we're not talking about knee touching or making a pass as some dating protocol faux pas.
We're talking about blatant intimidation if the victim complained. Why did this go on so long?... BECAUSE EVERYONE KNEW OR ASSUMED IT WAS JUST AN ISOLATED INCIDENT! NOT ENOUGH EVIDENCE! NOT ENOUGH WITNESSES! Guaranteed complacency toward victimization in order to go along and not cause trouble. One person's word against powerful and well known men. KEEP IT ISOLATED!
What's the big deal?! Someone's dignity is worth what? Who cares. Walk it off. You'll heal. NOT ANYMORE!
Those men need their money taken from them and anyone else that does this to women because it's not an isolated incident. We now know this!

Summer, 1957. Ann and I were stitting havng a coffee in a bar in Naples, waiting for my mother to pick us up en route to Amalfi. I got up, wandered over to the jukebox to play something romantic: Send me some lovin'; this came on. They'd loaded it wrong way around... just another of life's little surprises.

Check out a DIY recording setup using a custom built speaker system to make classic jazz and Count Basie live and studio recordings sound as if they're right in your room.
I played Count Basie's "Prime Time" as a trombonist in a full piece big band back in the late '90's and have the original CD aiff file. But what this dude has done to the CD recording without digital editing sounds like a miracle of technology. Take a listen and read the comment section where the poster explains to me how he did it.
The original CD version of "Prime Time" I have from the very same album... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLZezcIrAgE
The much better sounding version using natural reverb and custom built speakers recorded in the poster's hall way in his home... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBNpZy9fRvg
Sounds great on my Sony headphones but I don't know if it sounds the same played through home speakers. Would hope those here playing through stereo speakers would chime in and verify.
BTW check out the other classic jazz recordings in the poster's profile page.

Some more Brit jazz; saw this band at a club in Scotland (yep, they got up there, as did Louis Armstrong and his Allstars), and sent Barber some shots (by request), which made carrying a camera and Braun flash feel worth the trouble. Hey, I was a kid using Pan F!

Thing is, how can a lady tell what's what in time? As Leiter claimes, nobody knows what's what, and by the time they do, it's too late. Deep down, I wonder if the difference is that some jerks keep a life-long handle on their status whereas othesr don't bother; as the male's primary purpose is to breed, it seems counter-intuitive to be anything else...
Perhaps the scientific friend is advocatiing gayness?

Missed this one 'til now. IMO the answer (for women who are seeking an answer) is simple: birth control. :D Have your fun, but when it comes to creating new humans choose your mate(s) very carefully.
-Dave-
Birth control has no absolute guarantee of doing what it promises on the tin. Unless, I suppose, there's so much doubling up of effort as to remove the fun part altogether and render the effort pointless. Just like the relationship between photographic art and GAS.
In the end, it (sex) slips down the list of priorities and other values become much more dominant. Or worth clinging on to. Either way, I'm sure it's a better alternative than sleeping pills, so certainly not to be discounted. Sells a lot of fancy lingerie, thus providing work for photographers and advertising agencies, and, by coincidence, bringing in the need for even more birth control. I wonder if that's Victoria's dirty little secret? Or, on the other hand, Victoria's civic duty?

Absolute guarantee? No. But, assuming proper use, a very high probability? Nowadays, yes. Despite scaremonger handwringing over the likelihood of rampant promiscuity, the net effect has been to empower. And with self-empowerment a greater sense of self-responsibility tends to follow. This is a simple lesson the extreme ends of our messed-up sociopolitical spectrum seem intent on not learning.

Then you couldn't have been up and hunting during the 60s!
Hugh Hefner's Playboy Philosophy was a well-written read during the sexual revolution era, and shows that either he had some convenient hired pens working under his name, or that he didn't get out of his pyjamas not because he was having too busy a time in the hutch, but because he was too busy typing. Yet, all the justifications and new morality aside, the time also led to the scourge of AIDS and the rest of the modern curses that flowed with the lawless dick.
I think we perhaps just took the lid from off the sewer that had been keeping the stench beneath from the public nostril, and let the contents overflow the pavements.
That word, empowerment, is one that I have grown to detest. It's used by women libbers, politicians of all colours and as far as I can make out, is the mot du jour of any group with an agenda to sell. On the one hand, you get the (unattractive?) women who harangue models for being either too thin or too curvaceously sexy, and on the other, those who claim that showing your butt to the magazine reader is empowering. Really? I always thought it was just an easy, non-demanding way of paying the rent and meeting a banker, estate agent or future POTUS.
Maybe that's what's meant by empowering: not some highfaluting, moral high ground, I'm-in-control thing at all, but just the power of being employable/buyable at whatever level?

Rob, I don't know how to respond to such a jaundiced outlook other than to say it ain't the '60s anymore.
Anyway maybe "empowerment" has been corrupted by doctrinaire coercion junkies. I just mean it in the sense of "taking responsibility for yourself leads to inner steel." This is the opposite of the "wallow in and celebrate your own weakness" message of the PC brigade.

Amazing international influence of the Beatles' haircuts! Great series of personally important music that follows (for my computer) on your link.
For me, it was the best decade that empotionally began back in '57.
As a wannabe photographer, it all came slowly together and then exploded with Swingin' London that may have been wonderful down there, but which whilst not as great elsewhere, nonetheless offered the key of hope, without which nothing ever happens because if people don't believe, they stop - or never even start - trying. The clients existed and so did the willingness to spend, and though certainly seldom altruistically, at least the gigs found funding and got made. Getting old doesn't feel so bad when you realise you had one helluva well-timed run; I don't think it could have been the same for most of us guys today. One thing we can't do is design time.
That said, I'm sure today's photo appetites find another form of fulfilment that escapes me.

Tons of retouching going on at my house now. Music is required. My current jam...

Retouching as of house, or of photographs?
I think I'd find that music too demanding, in the sense of intrusive; I would rather have a background less highly pitched, less difficult to keep secondary to the main thing I may be doing. That's definitiely not music by which to make love.
;-)
Not for making love either, but for listening:

Photographs of course! I want the “demanding” music of I’m going to be sitting at a screen for 10-12 hours. Less “ demanding “ makes me sleepy.
For that I like something like this:

Thanks for some lovely filming. I realise now why I find straight landscape photography so dull: it lacks the magic of progression.
Nice watch straight after breakfast, especially as I contemplate an e-mail telling me that a package (which I do not expect) awaits me at the post office. Which does two things: concerns me that opening the message will bring in a dose of virus; that in any case, I will now require to take myself down to the post office to make sure whether it's a scam or the real thing.
;-)
Update: post office told me it's a scam that has cost somebody else about twelve thousand euros in withdrawals etc. Fortunately, I didn't open the thing, and came home to another mail telling me I have won some prize in cosmetics gifts... right!
All that aside, I refuse to Internet bank, so at least that should be safe.

Hi Josh, I hear Bandcamp is waiving fees today with 100% of the proceeds going directly to the musicians. Is this true?

Yep.
Most of my friends are re prompting their catalogues.

The one and only. First track in 7 years. Powerful truth, always. https://youtu.be/3NbQkyvbw18

Listening to Classic Rock 1969 on Apple Music today while working, lots of old tunes from that wild time of my youth.
This one had everyone putting in the 8 track and cranking up the Kraco speakers in the car and sparking the redbud. Loved the drum solo :)

I finally finished my processing and delivered to the client yesterday, a nice relief. I relaxed to this album last night.
Ludovico Einaudi - Una mattina one of my favorites of his.

My 17 year old son put his down time to good use and finished his album and got it up on all the major streaming services last week.
He wrote, played, recorded, mixed everything himself in our house. I'm proud but I also like it on its own merits. :)
Spotify album link:
https://open.spotify.com/album/56z3hLSTOziMT1m0HcBWsJ?si=wvarbTTIRAWpOm_Ee5I7OA
I think this is his best song on it and it's also the most recent.

Sad news: we have lost Little Richard.
Irreplaceable talent for the blues and early rock 'n' roll.
