Men of a certain age in my family would be more likely to dig anything with guitars in it. I think (on the whole) men are more likely to appreciate bluesy-type music. Dad's are (a bit) more likely to associate with angst and melancholy.

I actually got into FM through my parents. They played Tango In The Night to death in the car. Aside from that album I dont think they were ever particularly big fans though.
I understand. Actually my fav playlist resembles much more your dad's list than your mom's list but I have to say that my family follows a similar pattern to yours, but for different reasons; my father and the other men seems to like more rhytmic music that is heavily based on guitar while we women prefer melodic sounds usually driven by pianos.
