Igor Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring" was first performed in 1913. It was so dissonant to the audience it caused a riot. The ballet was a failure. It was again performed at a later date, but this time the audience fell in love with it.
Our ears are used to hearing certain rhythms, when this is disrupted, we react negatively. When I watched this clip when I was little, it bothered and frightened me, so usually I would fast forward through it.

I think it's a huge distraction! It's a market and it's a racket; I guess it provides an outlet for females, so to speak, to guide themselves. Men and females are different…yeah, of course! But one is no better that the other. I definitely believe men can do certain things better than females can do, and females can do certain things better than men. There are fundamental differences, but why does there have to be a sect that focuses on the coping of females in life versus males? If as a female you wanna be seen as separate, or different which, by the way, you already are then go ahead!
