I went a doodling through the list of members for a few
minutes. Other than me, pOgO, and a select few others, there
is an absence of female members on this board. Not only that
but the clubs/raves/gigs and things that I go to, there is
an absence of female participants in the land of IDM, Heavy
Metal, etc. Are they at Brittany Spears concerta? Cher
tours!? Or being token groupies backstage? I've tried to get
alot of my female friends into Aphex, Autechre,
Squarepusher, Lali Puna and more, and they cant seem to deal
with the absence of 'My Bitch Left me' EMO lyrics.

Man, I HATE emo!!!

Its noise pollution!!
So....girls and whiny immitation rock.

WHat are your thoughts?

I believe it has more to do with the medium you are using.

EMO seriously.

the internet, I mean.

it doesn't have enough frills, is hardly coloured pink
except for certain sites that are all about girls but in a
more vivid way and it doesn't smell of strawberries.

hmm, yes, there are very few on this mb...but the gigs i
attend are always filled with girls - tho, if there's some
more hardcore stuff playing they get off the dancefloor, but
as soon as there's more dancy stuff they're all over the
place again. but one thing is sure - guys seem to dig this
stuff more.

men are all about obsessively collecting stuff.

well, you'll have fun if you like electronic music then!

I have to admit that most of the girls i know are really
very open minded and they like alot of the stuff i play
them, most of it in fact.

surely at least 20 girls there when he started!

I really think the difference is in reaction to the music.

lots of women like electronic music, but they then don't
freak out like men do - trying to find EVERY FUCKING record
that person has EVER made!!!!!!!

well, since promo uses the words 'notes', 'forgettable' and
'overall' all the time when describing music i think its OK
to say that girls just dont know much about it

Well it appears that this type o music is intrinsically
linked with the world of computers and the internet. Seeing
as that's a male dominated side of thing then there will be
less women into the music.

but I do believe quite a good amount of females DO like this
music, but just don't go on about it on the male-dominated
internet or go crazy over it.

Most of my friends are female and most of them like a bit of
Aphex or BoC but they wouldn't come and talk about it here.

THANK YOU! Its about time some other girls realized this.
I've wondered the same thing for years, but I kinda stopped
when everyone started giving me shit for it.

But seriously it doesn't makes sense. Half the population is
men, the other half are women, by why is it that about 90%
of electronic music listeners are men?

i'm not a dyke or a loner-girl.... i just choose to induldge
myself in the finer arts of music. i don't know what the
hell you consider emo, casuse i'm not all cool and
up-to-date about that whole music genre....
but i do enjoy some bright eyes, or elliot smith every once
in a while, after listening to hours apon days of geogaddi,
or lemon of pink.
most of my friends who are girls, love my music.... just
the other day i got my best friend telling me to puy in
square pusher, go plastic, cause she wanted to listen to
"the car song"
but yeah, that's my 2 cents.
