there are some horribly tagged artists in this; courtney love and none more black have nothing to do with riot grrrl at all.

P.S. I don't hate women. Their job is sacred (to be mothers and good housewives)! God bless real women!

this to me, seems like a tag used for basically female grunge bands. Theres a bunch of stuff i don't like thats listed here. However, i don't mind early hole, L7, & babes in toyland.

@ginanightmare: we do. i don't know where you're from but where i'm from (nj/upstate ny/dc scene) there's a lot of female (and male) fronted feminist and militant antihomophobic hardcore punk/powerviolence bands. the guy below me is a sexist piece of shit.
