You know the gender disparity between how men and women look at their fingernails? I found another one that is also almost as universal.

Ask someone about painting wooden house-things. Paneling, furniture.

Most women will say "Sure, if it looks good."

Most men will say, "Why would you paint wood?!"

Mrs L and a friend of hers want to paint a piano. I am finding this hilarious.

Paneling is kind of creepy. And I'd rather paint it than take it down. -- nm - mara Aug 7, 09:14 3

  - Okay, *you* take the paneling down and spruce up the wall so I can paint that. -- nm - mara Aug 7, 09:18 1

i always found the shoes problems the most "revealing" -- nm - Danedukenuuk Aug 7, 08:52
I'd be afraid of this affecting the tone - am I crazy? -- nm - MojaveMeg Aug 7, 08:52 4
- No, this can have an effect. - Reagen Aug 7, 10:23
- This is an *OLD* piano, and not one that has been tuned/cared for much over the years. It is at least one full note flat, even when it has been tuned - landbeck Aug 7, 09:00 1
  - Then it certainly needs a coat of paint, a lace doily, and a potted plant.... - MojaveMeg Aug 7, 09:03
- I think I've seen painted pianos used in performance, particularly white. -- nm - mara Aug 7, 08:57
