What your taste in music says about YOU!

This is going to be a touchy topic, so I stress, this is not my study or article. Simply bringing it to lite....
April Masini, author of Date Out of Your League, tells you what kind of guy you can expect from his musical tastes, while Andrew Feinstein, co-author of Opening Lines, Pinky Probes and L-Bombs: The Girls & Sports Dating and Relationship Playbook, explains to guys what a woman's playlist means ...
Classic rock. Guys who like classic-rock make great partners. They go for the normal things in life, like dinner and a movie, a two-story house in the suburbs with an SUV or station wagon, a couple of kids, and a dog.
Women who like the classics are in denial of the aging process and may have general image issues. Guys, be prepared for a lot of "Oh, you look great" pep talks throughout the relationship.
Heavy metal. Watch out for hidden anger issues with guys who like metal. The songs, the melodies, and the rhythms of heavy metal are aggressive and overpowering on purpose. You may be surprised in bed, in a good or a bad way.
Women who like metal hate their parents, and if you're a nice guy, she'll hate you, too.
Country. If a guy likes country music, chances are that he's sentimental and romantic. He's got a moral compass and clear ideas of what's right and what's wrong. He also knows that breaking hearts, and getting them broken, are part of life.
And what about women who favor this kind of music? "She's a good girl from the heartland, so you're not getting any action anytime soon," says Feinstein. "You may want to consider square-dancing lessons."
Top 40. If a guy likes hits, watch for an inflated ego, driven personality, and someone who's own opinion comes first. While generally open to change, he likes it best when the idea is his. Creative and romantic.
Women who favor hits? "She's outgoing and has a long list of friends. Incredibly social. Her iphone may get more attention than you so watch out. Style is critical to her, but so is fun."
Classical. Everyone knows that single guys with huge classical music collections are uncommonly smart and sensitive.
Single women who like classical music tend to be very smart, because they often come by their interest from having mastered an instrument in their childhood years.
I can't wait to get thoughts on this one!
