These are not boys. They are men.
I've sang in choirs, and know something about it (I sing alto). Sopranos often want to be in the spotlight, because their voice can carry louder than everyone else's. Though this four man group is very good, I'm not a fan of all of the other voices taking second place behind the soprano - especially if it's a man. The male soprano in this group is very dominant.
If you don't like my opinion, Anne, too bad. You are not the only know-it-all female around here.

Well bully for you, aren't you just a special little snowflake. Touchy, touchy to boot. With friends like you, who would need enemies? Really, you go from welcoming to warning to shunning, all within about 3 posts to me. Huh, whatever floats your boat, lady. Oh well, thanks for the heads up.
I gave a basic example because you seemed to indicate you had no clue that boys or men could be sopranos, also. I included men in my original post. There was nothing offensive at all in it. I love music and learning more about it. I can't and don't sing Alto. I don't have to be in the spotlight either. And if you know how to sing properly, then you know that you can sing quietly.
The sun will still shine one way or the other and if it comes right down to it, I could give a frosted flake about your opinion. You are entitled to have one like everyone else. For the moment it is still called free speech.
And by the way? Since this will save me typing to your other post, I am a grown woman and can fight my own battles, thank-you so much. I have nothing personal against those who are holding Sedevacantist views, (I have admitted that I don't get it), but it seems you do? Huh. If so, that's your problem, not mine. I also don't need your warning/alert system or whatever it is you called it in your other post to me for those in SSPX Resistance here either. One fun part of being an adult is being able to hold different views and to learn and grow from others. I have more in common than not with them. I have indicated as much elsewhere.Besides, whatever beef you have with other "know-it-all" females here is also your problem, not mine. I think I have been here what maybe 2 weeks, and I deal with each post and person on a case-by-case basis. But psstt...if you want to know a secret about this place? It's much more interesting to read and reply to posts started by men for the most part, because they seem much more emotionally balanced and stable than some of the women here that have been here awhile. Judging by your sensitivity, maybe I should put you in that category? Or shall I just put you on ignore? Or? How would you like to proceed?
Many of the posts here challenge my ability to understand metaphysical things and such and although I have a learning disability, I prefer actually trying to learn something out of my comfort zone, or sharing a joke rather than just engaging in a battle of jealousy or insecurity or whatever your issue is with me? Have I even responded to any of your posts yet? I think one, and I was going to answer another, so I guess now my work is done.
I would honestly prefer to talk with people in real life, but that's difficult, so I do the best I can with the opportunities I have. But hey, it's been great fun exchanging Christmas greetings and gifts with non-Catholic Sikh neighbours! So if you think I am worried about a little down-vote or flack from those here with different views? LOL. (I am just waiting for the right moment to ask them to Mass. It will happen. They actually got us a Christmas card with a church on it. How thoughtful is that?)
Happy singing, Meg! Anne :-)
P.S. I also have other difficulties because of accidents, so it also makes it even harder for me to try to understand some deeper topics. I am not afraid to try and embarrass myself and I will do my best to bow out if I know that I am out of my league with some of the conversations here. There are some VERY intelligent and learned men here. If this were an all-female forum, I would have not even bothered to sign up. I am really not interested in cat-fights, but since you brought out your claws, well, right back at you, girlfriend.
