Well, I thought the first post was a joke, but since I
seem to be in the mood to spew forth some garbage
today, here are my thoughts:
Isn't *most* music pretty male-dominated? I've always
thought it just followed from the
still-generally-male-dominated nature of western
society.
The real question would be: is IDM (or just electronic
music) more male-dominated than other genres?
...and a related question might be: Do music genres
tend to start out male-dominated and then slowly
become more "egalitarian"?
