I messed around with flute when I was younger. Surprised by how much spit accumulated inside the thing. Kinda turned me off from it.

Also it's a girl's instrument for some reason. Unless you're the Jethro Tull guy.

Which is weird because historically is was the manliest of man's instruments.

Frederick the Great of Prussia played and composed for the flute specifically because of it's military importance. Also it's one of the few instruments that can be played upright in a dignified posture without contorting your body into all sorts of goofy positions.

It's the manliest of man's instrument like when a man wears a pink shirt which effectively makes him more manly, because only a manly man would dare wear a pink shirt.

Historically pink is a boy's color because red is the color of vitality and pink, being a light red shade, indicates that the boy will grow up to be a vital and powerful man. Light blue was for girls, showing a more austere and melancholy disposition.
