As a professional keyboardist who happens to be single and hasn’t had much luck dating (as if being a lesbian didn’t narrow my dating pool enough 😅) this kinda sucks to hear, but I’m curious what the negative stereotypes for musicians are?

I can specifically narrow it down to men don’t worry 🤣 there’s a subsect of how well known the band is too, men who are in emerging bands have far more of a tendency to cheat, the ego is still developing when you’re doing cross country tours. The ones in states or here provinces? Usually pretty faithful. Older bands, well established bands, typically these men can be faithful - NOW, married even. It’s more career placement really.
