Sure, but it's interesting to wonder why, because in doing so, we learn more about not just Karen Carpenter but about ourselves as fans of her work, people who are touched so deeply by it. It's all good.I refuse to categorize myself but I lean both directions at times
We all love their music- that's the point here on these boards, right?
You've got good instincts along with your good taste in music. Maybe that's what draws us together when it comes to Carpenters music and what makes us purveyors of that legacy.

Carpenters music and their personal lives is catnip for someone who thinks like I do; thinking about how they're lives informed their music, and vice Versa, then how their musical/personal ethos shaped (and shaped by) the American collective cultural consciousness.
No it’s not...that’s an off topic we can’t talk about...please don’t derail my thread.This is getting scarily close to political.
That was a mouthful lol but I like it.Carpenters music and their personal lives is catnip for someone who thinks like I do; thinking about how they're lives informed their music, and vice Versa, then how their musical/personal ethos shaped (and shaped by) the American collective cultural consciousness.

Someone tried to make the thread into politics and Harry had to do some thread pruning. It's all good. Thank you, Harry.Leave what alone though?
I'm confused. I see various threads get way more off track than this one but nothing is said about it. But I don't make the rules here, I just follow them. I'm going to bow out of this one now. Sorry.
I second that Thanks Harry for Your Continuing Good Leadership. I will say for myself even after Karen's passing I still enjoyed the Carpenters music and no amount of bullying from anyone was going to derail me They never succeeded in that when they harassed me about Herb. BMB etc and fortunately over the years i dated a few Girls who liked their music so it gave us something to enjoy together sometimes one just needs to patiently find the more open minded and open hearted people. To share certain things with.No politics!
I didn’t know this either why do you think that is true? I know it can’t be that men can express their feelings easier than women because I’ve always heard it’s the opposite that women are always saying men don’t express enough emotions. I see a lot of emotions being expressed here about the Carpenters and most are from men. (I also think that’s great)
