Sexism In Music

Grogsie [Edit] [Delete] 10:40, 20 November '08

Right, so I've just read a blog posted by laura-Marie of Blood Red Shoes, and am shocked and appauled to see that she is the target of constant sexism! Apparently she has at most gigs a load of men shouting 'get ya tits out' and the like, (which although is a shame it is to be expected sometimes as she is gorgeous..) but more worryingly she states that she often receives mail from me telling her to put down the guitar as she can't play, or 'leave it to the men', or generally telling her she is a shit musician.

It was at a show in Germany last week that she lost it, and frankly i don't blame her. What arrogant fucktards who wish they could make even a second of music as good as her and any other more then deserving lead female musician.
