Why isn't it just common practice to just use "they" instead the entirely cumbersome "he/her"?

Like it's just so much easier to type out and say, and it's just better to use regardless.

Darude Sandstorm.

Not even joking

None!

There should be no guilty pleasures in music. Especially dating. It's much more attractive to have a wide range of tastes and be comfortable with what you like.

Nickelback.

Doesn't exist. I tell them what I like. If they can't handle the truth then it wouldn't work anyway.

I also don't have guilty pleasures. I enjoy things.

Obviously the ska.

My workout playlist consists of anime openings and Power Metal. I don't watch anime nor play D&D, but I like the fast-paced and fantasy/superhero style.

So I put my hands up. They're playin' my song, the butterflies fly away. I'm noddin' my head like, yeah. Movin' my hips like, yeah. I got my hands up, they're playin' my song. They know I'm gonna be okay. Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A. Yeah, it's a party in the U.S.A.

ive seen barry manilow in concert 4 times

I have a philosophy to always expose my craziest parts cuz if they dont like them it eventually wont work anyway so id play cupcakke x mario kart remixes for them

Aqua and Toy Box. Dog bless the early 2000’s

I went on a 160 mile bike ride and wound up listening to the same Tove Lo album on repeat the entire time, not because it was too much of a hassle to change up the music or anything

It's your first date and she/he asks what type of music you like. What's the guilty pleasure you won't tell her/him about?

I love music and hate but being myself (AuADHD weeeee) so, they're going to hear an honest answer. If they're not down with my love of folk punk and what I classify as "shitty punk rock" (you just the kind - overly-compressed, terribly mixed, played by people who barely know how to tune a guitar), well, that's fair enough. Same as if they aren't up for my, AuADHD - neurodivergence can be a bit to handle.

Drum n bass

Taylor swift :p

I will gladly tell them how much I like Weird Al.

Steely Dan. The worst part would be I won't stop talking about the drum solo in Aja.

Carmeldansen in its original form is legitimately a good song and I actually love the whole album its from.

depends, but I usually don't reference more of the occasional things I listen to , less of the electronic/breakcore or experimental/obviously avant garde (less Secret chiefs 3, more crossfire duo )

EDIT : my wife doesn't mind the tech death/grindcore, she does mind the free jazz/avant garde classical

Mindless Self Indulgence

ICP

Cbat, obviously

I have some Brittany Spears and Backstreet Boys on my gym mix.

I'd rather listen to Raditude than Pinkerton...

I love singing Kalinika... I'd probably avoid mentioning it because Russia is an authoritarian state that likely wouldn't approve of me dating the person I'm talking to. Also, the Russian government sucks in like a billion other ways.

Hyperpop. I'm a Christian and only date other Christians and many of those songs have pretty lewd lyrics.

Spinal Meningitis by Ween.

On a lighter note, I loves me some Señor Coconut.

2000 - 2010's indie rock/pop like the kooks, mando diao, vampire weekend, etc

Metro Station - Shake It

Kpop. But to be fair, I listen to a wide variety of genres, from prog rock to metal, r&b, EDM, and film scores.

I'm going to save the Powerwolf and Lord of the Lost until maybe the third date...
