Ok, I'm confoosed. What is TBITB? I just can't think of anything it stands for. I'm sure its blatantly obvious to everyone BUT me, but still...

What is TBITB?

The Boys In The Band.

I always thought it was "The Band In The Back", but....same thing I guess.

(hmmmm, come to think of it...doesn't "The Boys in the Band" have a somewhat different connotation from that intended after a certain movie from the 1970? :lookround: )

Does anyone have access to Billboard's Daily Charts? I'm too impatient to

wait a whole week for stats. :choon:

Uh, yeah, I suppose it could.

But then so does it have a different connotation to sing "Don we now our gay apparel" at Christmas. I say, let's resist cultural hijacking of this particular bit of language and continue to insist that "The Boys In The Band" is not an inappropriate way to refer to a bunch of guys who are actually in a band.

Of course that doesn't address the chronological inappropriateness of calling them "boys" when they are in fact all growed up and masters of their craft, but turnabout is fair play. Let's let them call us girls if they want to.

which unfortunately the kids at my stepfather Don's school were all too aware of!

I propose TGITG: The Guys In The Group?!

btw I used to call all women over 18 "women", but I had a lot of them tell me that made them sound too old!! Any tips on what I should use? I agree "girls" isn't good, so now I usually use "guys" for a group of men or women, and if I have to refer to one woman, I just try to guess which one she would prefer based on her personality, age, etc.
