Why the Dire Straits hate?

I'm a DS fan, have been for a long long time. I enjoy the raw guitar sound of Knopfler with both their slow and faster songs.Im not a die hard fan, my favourite band is U2. However the one thing I have noticed is that every female I have spoken to hates DS and their music. Every single one. So my question to the females out there -what is it about DS music that you dislike? I'm very interested to know.

I've seen them live and grew up with their music, I don't hate them but can't remember the last time I listened to them either

@WelshLovely yeah sometimes you forget the old music and individual songs. I hope they were good live.
