Men kvinnor kan ju inte, i genomsnitt, spela varken harpa eller violin. Att det finns några få som kan det, riktigt bra, är väl knappast relevant?
De flesta män som jag hört testa att spela harpa klarade av det hyfsat, medan detsamma inte gäller för kvinnor. Det är ju en personlig anekdot och om det stämmer (inte säkert eftersom det inte är så ofta man får höra någon testa nya instrument) så har det väl att göra med att män i genomsnitt är mer musikaliska och kreativa av sig än kvinnor är.

Det finns massor av kvinnor som spelar harpa och violin både på amatörnivå och professionell nivå.

”[i]Of those competing in its senior division next month in London, 22 violinists are women and only one is a man, according to the Telegraph. Sixty-five percent of the applicants this year were women, director Gordon Back said.
“Back in the 1980s, when I was first involved in the competition, the men were in the majority, but the women were already gaining ground. Since then there’s been a big surge,” he said, adding that all of the finalists at a recent competition in Indianapolis were women. A current crop of talented violinists featured in the Telegraph piece included Nicola Benedetti, Esther Yoo, Patricia Kpatchinskaja, Alina Ibragimova, Maud Powell, and Anne-Sophie Mutter.
The Telegraph piece explains that since the orchestra audition process became gender-blind in the 1990s (performers play behind a screen) women have become dominant in those spaces as well.”

Sarah Chang är en annan violinist i det absoluta toppskiktet.

...women and men are born with equivalent creative potential. It also shows that both creative underachievers and successful innovators are shaped by their environments. In a patriarchal society –– an anti-creative climate –– women are brainwashed into believing that they are the inferior sex. Women are also not afforded the same resources and expectations as men are. Based on these different expectations, parents raise girls and boys differently. Female innovators, including Nobel Prize winners, are less likely to marry and have fewer children than male innovators (in fact, female innovators are often childless). If female innovators do get married and/or have children, they are expected to bear all of the household responsibilities. Women are expected to take care of others' needs and play supportive roles to other family members. Societal norms and expectations make developing female innovators feel guilty and selfish for cultivating their own creativity; they are expected to be selfless and develop creativity in others, not for themselves.
Både män och kvinnor är i genomsnitt lika musikaliska och kreativa.
P.S Var snäll bespara mig dina påhittade personliga anekdoter. De saknar relevans och är värdelösa som vetenskapliga bevis på kvinnors påstådda tillkortakommanden.
