So there's an exception to every rule...

Last night I went to see the opera Tristan and Isolde. A lovely work by Wagner and by lovely I mean the traditional man meets woman...woman promised to another man...both drink love potion...woman marries other man...the lovers are heartbroken and meet in secret...both die in the end to be together.

Now here is the interesting part...normally in our society if someone is going to show skin in a performance it is going to be the woman. Not so in opera...the men were the ones running around half dressed. Now I would like to point out that this wasn't that exciting because well it was a opera star. Anyway just thought this was interesting.
