toneknob Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Just came across this on gumtree: [url="http://www.gumtree.com/p/community/establishing-london-band-the-swaras-seeking-female-bassist/105936514"]http://www.gumtree.com/p/community/establishing-london-band-the-swaras-seeking-female-bassist/105936514[/url] "we need band members who are flexible in dressing, [have] a small bust and an average to skinny figure, ambitious minded, confident, open-minded to ideas and cooperative" Something about bass-playing somewhere as well. Do you fit the bill better than me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gust0o Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 I'm assuming we'll all be responding to the ad with that Youtube clip, then? I'm all for giving people another chance. Large-breasted Basschat'ers, who may feel agrieved at missing out on this opportunity, are welcome to join my band. All of you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_5 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 Doesn't that breach employment law on the grounds of being a) sexist and ageist? Just saying... Of course, I'm a bloke in my 30s who's about 8lb too heavy, with nay titties at all, so it might just be me being a bit grumpy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standards are dropping [/quote] Sorry. I had to fire up YouTube and think up an appropriate search term. (I went for "korean bass transvestite".) I prolly need to save the link as a draft somewhere for rapid response. (I suppose I could "favourite" it in YouTube, but I fear for what may turn up in the "you may also like..." recommendations ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
