AIBU to start a music thread? There are some great female artists out there who explain what it's really like to be a woman. (And it's not about wearing makeup and dresses and looking cute).

I'm loving this one right now:

And sometimes I wish that I was born in another time
In the future, see my daughters born,
Born Into a world where
Suddenly like I could, walk the street, I walk the street like a woman should
Like nobody was around
Like I could shed the anatomy of my high school
Like my body was allowed

I second that about Tura Satana as well as Tairrie Bs other band My Ruin

Also Rasputina are amazing and Carina Round, Kim & Kelly Deal, Courtney Love, Kristen Hersh, Melissa Auf Der Maur

@Tesla73 have you heard Tairrie B's hip hop stuff? I am not sold on that at all but I admire her all the more for doing it.

@Scout2016 - yep, not too keen on the rap stuff either. V dodgy

I love the musical jumble of this song as well as the theme, and I am sure Sinead O'connor had a shittier time of things for being a woman.

Also M.I.A.
and Chrissie Hynde.

Bit off Neneh Cherry.... I was a teenager in the 80s 90s....she was a massive inspiration for me :)

So many amazing songs on this thread!! Im definitely going to create a playlist from it. It's good to remember and think about our strengths as women...even when they are not always recognised or encouraged by society 💪🏼🥰

Agree

She is seen as mentally ill.

If she was a man she would be a rebellious heart throb.
