We all live in little pods of people similar to ourselves which may make you think that most people think like you but thankfully you're wrong. Most people I know care. 

Can you not see how you just undermined the validity of your own comment there?

Of course I understand that which is why the rest of that post that you conveniently didn't quote went:

"As above i can't extrapolate this sample to represent everyone but it's enough for me to know you're wrong."

I wish people would read.

Also, it may be true that some industries draw more of one gender than another but you can't tell me that music is one of them. 

I was listening to that hardcore history podcast and they said that females and children used to make up most of the crowd at public torture and execution events but then society decided that women should be the nurturing types and it was disgusting that they were enjoying themselves at such events and gradually that became true.

As I said, they don't want half the performers to be female or anything like that, they want one female performer in one song for the entire night in any band. That's hardly an onerous requirement, and I'm sure if (as you ascertain) females aren't musically inclined (which they are just as much as males) that there is one female musician out there.
