As last arrival to the list it is not up to me to speak of the differences
between a male and a femal brain. But there are differences, like psychology
explains us. So the weak presence of female artists in music is in my opinion
not due to social programming but due to simple genetic diversity. Don't
misunderstand me, i don't want to start a anti-feminism-campaign (i'm glad too
that there are female artists). Nevertheless it is not a question of equal
rights, but of mutual complement. Women have just a better feeling for the
beautiful, for the esthetics, men have an little more marked sense for
"creating". Now, try to combine both: this gives an explosive compound. Would it
not be interesting to focus on how many famous/known pairs are to find in arts
and especially in music?
