Well, I studied music in a high school of fine arts and there, girls used to find the flutist guys so cool, so it’s not a girl instrument as far as I know. In any case, you got to play the guitar in the end, your real love, so all’s well, I guess :) They tried to make me play the clarinet instead of my real love, the violin too, but I fought them and learned to play the violin, so I can understand your feelings from that time so well.
