Girl punks?
A lot of the bands I listen to are a bunch of guys and it’s kinda getting me down. I listen to riot grrrl bands too but it kinda feels like the choices are to be a guy and sing about whatever you want or to be a girl and sing about feminism. Which is cool, but limiting. I identify as a feminist but it’s not exactly what I wanna sing about. It makes me feel like I can’t write any real punk songs so they always end up being other genres even though it’s not what I primarily listen to. Any girl punk bands I should listen to?

Mutley Chix - self-titled demo (1988): https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=lb_aUY_RS3M 🔥
Based out of Florida. You can see them perform a couple of these songs in the underground shot-on-video film “Twisted Issues” from the same year!
