I don't get it...Exile on main Street-Blue

Wow! So I just found out that stating a preference is sexist. Full disclosure, I love female vocalists. Generally, more than male. Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Eva Cassidy or Jennifer Warnes have the ability to tug at my soul far more than any male vocalists. Don't get me wrong, I like all.

As for a preference, who knows what's at play. I grew up in the 50's and 60's listening to classical music at home and rock when I could. Peter, Paul and Mary rocked my soul back then and inspired me to become a fairly proficient guitar player. That said, I never really got the Beatles or Stones. Why? beats me.

@tylermunns i hear what you’re saying I just don’t think it applies here.  OP is not being sexist.  Saying that you like female vocalists is not in the same context as your examples.  It’s perfectly valid to say I like vocalists, particularly female vocalists.  I often think in terms of male vs female vocalists and often lean toward female voices.  Disagree that we are all on a level playing field artistically or creatively, but being male or female is not a differentiating factor.  However, it might be a factor in what someone likes.

@llg98ljk you should be ashamed for having preferences!

"Peter, Paul and Mary rocked my soul..."

I don't think Peter, Paul and Mary 'rocked' anything...
