Re: Why Aren't there More Female Guitar Players, Especially Electric?
The women I find truly attractive have a lot more going on for them than just something physical. I fell in love with my wife partly because she's a freakin' brainiac. Since we met she's earned two masters degrees. Sure, I still like getting her naked, but that's not all there is to my attraction for her.
I've got a massive celeb crush on Jenna Coleman, who plays Clara Oswald on Doctor Who. She's a talented actress, very intelligent, and geeky.
There needs to be a look in the eyes like something's going on upstairs for me to be attracted. Sometimes you get these girls that are physical specimens but when you look in their eyes they're dead, as if the only thought they've had all day is "I think I had too much lettuce at my last meal a week ago." Unfortunately, that's part of the whole bigger issue of gender roles that girls playing guitar is part of. Girls, from the beginning, are taught to be beautiful and serve a particular role, usually not a very productive one, and they have to be pretty or they're worthless. That's why even the most physically beautiful women on earth are photoshopped in magazines, because somebody somewhere decided that they're not perfect, and the message this sends is terrible.
