I've noticed that many tuba players, along with myself, are married to or dating flute players. What's the attraction?
Universal balance?
Mutual oxygen deprivation?
What gives?

Most probably because the relative frequence of female flute players is so much higher than of other instruments.
My guess,

What happens when a tuba player just doubles on flute?
No, wait, don't answer that.

I went to a prom in high school with a flute player once. A buddy of mine, tubist also, is married to a flutist.

I married a tuba player. We need a big car to go to gigs togeather though. And I usually end up carrying both tubas.

Guilty as charges. I married a lovely young woman who is of the transverse wind persuasion. We are both convinced that our daughter should have an excellent lung capacity.

I have caught myself dating mostly clarinet players actually, but both of my tuba friends in the Marching Band are dating flute players at the moment. Am I just wierd? hahaha
