I think most of the comments on this thread emphaisze why riot grrl was important, why young women may need a space of their own. what would be described as a "safe" space so they can speak without being mocked and degraded and harassed. I believe the people most widely associated with riot grrl are really the least important, what really counted were all the individual zines and connections that were made, not who ended up as a celebrity or has the most read blog or got hired by some corporation. Maybe because I was a 30 year old man at the time, but riot grrl went right past me, suddenly I was reading about 100's of zines and young women doing their own thing. Intellectually, it probably was light weight, but culturally, absolutely essential - the political counterpoint to the bland, corporate alt-rock.
I saw Bikini Kill play and they were a fucking killer punk band. |
that's all fair enough. except it was hardly ME and decayed rhapsody that were standing in the way of females ability to play music in bars.
genteel maybe. but that's just because he wants to be the girl with the most cake. wasn't it sexist macho heteros they were angry about. i know i don't really care. but it was hardly people like us. |
hahahahahaha

Writers need something to write about and historians need something to historicize about ("Historicize" is not really a word). I think that's why some of these things get blown up to be more significant than they really were. |
