It's fine to judge someone for the music tastes they have but within reason.

I also don't think it should go as far as judging the person's moral characteristics over what/who they choose to listen to. It's almost like you are saying that if they listen to some topics that you don't approve of that they will turn around and act out those same topics in person.


My experience with having people judge my taste here. I tried to have the attitude of brushing it off and not caring too much what they think but one comment that stuck with me and I thought was out of line was when a member said that my music taste doesn't meet the standards of MB.

I'm like what? what kind of pretentious bullshit ass statement is that? I thought that was a bit much and I'll never forget it.

I accept everyone and the music that they listen to. I'm always pretty open minded about trying out music/genres that I haven't heard before. If you are a member of MB, to get the best benefit out of this place it is worthwhile to be open minded towards music genres/artists that you haven't heard before.

Oh yeah, the baseball player. He utterly sucked goat nuts as a Seattle Mariner.


But I meant the toy company

I didn't even know there was a baseball player named Milton Bradley. I was thinking of the game company as well.

My husband hates my taste in music and he has been my worst critic, wounding me so badly I once threw away abut 50 CDs a little over 10 yrs ago. Since I have recovered and ppl's opinions on it do not bother me. I acknowledge it's different, bad, or weird taste.

I think criticising music taste is ok as long as you be respectful and not judge the person for said music taste.
