NHM Posted March 19 Posted March 19 done. Will you publish your results here? It would be really interesting to know what are the outcomes. 2 Quote
neepheid Posted March 19 Posted March 19 Oh wow, I got really confused for a min there, thinking "I'm sure I already did this" - finally figured it out - the thread's duplicated in Bass Guitars 2 Quote
Bassman68 Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Done But what are you trying to achieve? There seem to be female Bassists all over the socials… Kinga Glyk, Mohini Dey, Cici von Strangelove, Rhonda Smith, Esperanza Spalding, Daisy Pepper, Ida Nielson….Just off the top of my head, all seem to be doing very well for themselves? I don’t think male dominance has held them back in the industry? Talent is talent as far as I can see? 1 Quote

I don’t think male dominance has held them back in the industry? Talent is talent as far as I can see? How many lower echelon female bassists get overlooked in favour of males with the same (or possibly a bit less) ability? I personally can't assess how much bias there is for or against female musicians generally - I've tried some recruiting for rock covers bands, for drummers and guitarists, and as I've never had a female applicant it's difficult to assess what proportion of musicians one should expect in bands if there was no bias. With vocalists it's more complex - though this is the mirror image of the situation, I remember one guitarist who turned us down after making first contact because we were a female fronted rock band and apparently women can't sing rock. I assume that any band that he put together would operate on the same principle. 2 Quote
Stub Mandrel Posted Friday at 22:17 Posted Friday at 22:17 Bass does seem to have more appeal to men, but there don't seem to be major barriers to talented women players getting ahead. 1 Quote
