WHY?????
Because I am a female performer who has been verbally /
and physically assaulted while being on stage and its
really scary when men are taking up the first few rows,
to me, I mean.
And also: A lot of times several girls/women will have
trouble with the same guy or group of guys BUT cuz the
girls dont know each other and are scattered about, we
can't warn each other about said jerks presence OR pro-
tect each other effectively. If we are in a big gang we are
less isolated from each other and more likely to start talking
and dancing together and having some FUN
I mean if yr a guy could you just realise for a minute that
us girls have no way of knowing if you are a "good boy" or a
"bad boy" (as if these distinctions REALLY exist)
And, like, it is not cool or "punk rock" in anyways for guys to
smash into us or rub against us while we are trying to watch
a show. You know? I am sick of being to shows where I
feel completely unwelcomed and banished to the back cuz I
just get grossed out by moshing, harrassment, etc....
IT IS NOT SUBVERSIVE TO ACT LIKE YR UNCLE
And also, I really wanna look at female faces while I perform.
I want HER to know that she is included in this show, that what
we are doing is for her to CRITISIZE / LAUGH AT / BE INSPIR-
ED BY / HATE / WHATEVER.... Her opinion is more important
to me than some guy from Melody Maker and so I (along
with my friends) are gonna make the one for real effort to let
her know this.
Because this is our fucking show: THE GIRLS the QUEERS,
the WIMPS, the OUTCASTS......
And the kids who wanna act like their PARENTS are the
ones who aren't welcome. DIG.
