All the traditional iconography around rock 'n' roll - sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll - wasn't so much a rallying cry for women. |
I also think being in a band in general has more to do with team sports, in a strange way. It's like being in this team activity. That traditionally was not the domain of women or girls. |
I see more women playing guitars on Nickelodeon, which is probably more influential. |
I think it literally might not have occurred to women to pick up a guitar and play. |
