It seems to me that men end up buying male artists more then female, and vise versa. Why is this?

Do you guys/gals, follow the same sterotype?

Show me some good heavy metal with a female singer. Until then, I'm sticking with male vocalists.

Depends. What type of music does Amiee Mann sing along with?

Because most female artists suck. It has nothing to do with the fact that they are female. No Doubt was pretty good back in the day though...

I find that most people listen to crappy music in general regardless of the gender of the singer. :p

Singers of the opposite sex sing about relationships with the sex of the listener, which makes singing along make the listener feel uncomfortable in many cases.

It's the other way around for me. Most the songs I listen to are 95% female.

Define Crappy?

Metal, trance, country, polka, pop punk, bubblegum pop, goth music, etc....

I dunno, crappy music is crappy music.

I listen to trance, so I don't care if the DJ is male or female. Though most DJs are male. PvD FTW!
