Agreed, Angela is awesome
And about Kim, I don't like them new shouting vocals she done on the latest Sinergy album's, I liked her vocals alot on Beware the Heavens though. And yeah a few live clips I've seen her live voice didn't impress me much.
But yeah, Angela is the only women i've heard that hold's her own against men, or maybe I just need to listen to some more female fronted bands.

You asked for opinions and I'm giving mine!
You don't seem to be fully open to opinions that are different from yours....And don't put words into my mouth, please. That's a little silly of you

You are dense, yes? This is about lead women's approaches not about hating on any bands because their singers are women.
I may be wrong but I don't recall any posts hissing "i hate blah blah cause it's a woman".
Who cares? Look at the other posts. Some people took time to think and gave both simple and elaborate, yet intelligent responses.
Even better, some even gave passionate responses and/or took interest in maturely discussing the topic.

You gave an opinion that is irrelevant to the substance of the topic at hand. I think your reaction isn't even close to reasonable and understandable given the nature of the subject. Although that's OK and we're all given the chance and freedom to speak our minds on this forum, I believe it's a little silly to be so raucous.You asked for opinions and I'm giving mine!
And don't put words into my mouth, please. That's a little silly of you
If this were a discussion about whether women belong in metal or not, I STILL wouldn't approach it as a sexist discussion. It's a legitimate debate because we have freedom of speech. At least we do in the United States. It's a subject which can be talked about and deliberated in a mature discussion by those capable of taking a step back. Handling the idea as a debate concerning the human female's habits, stances, appearances, etc. in a lead metal vocalist's position or otherwise probably isn't politically correct in today's world, but it can be both plausible and reflective of the metal(etc.) community's general outlook.
I didn't put words in your mouth. You said this is a sexist discussion. You declared it as if being irrevocably true; as if you are the first, last and only individual to define what is and what is not.
I rephrased what you said into what is actually more accurate, ask Aristotle. I didn't change your original statement, I quoted you before commenting.
You gave your opinion, as you state above, which I quoted again. Your opinion is that the discussion is sexist, yes? That is your opinion. Not necessarily fact. It is your belief.
I was and am open to your opinion. I've absorbed your opinion to the point where I've been able to respond to it without hostility. I simply have set it aside because I believe it doesn't apply to my purpose of this thread. I'm not rejecting it.
Please do not attack. Negotiate with your impulses and form reasonable yet firm arguments. Interpret that as you please. It's only a statement.
I'm a law student. A good lawyer doesn't lie, s/he approaches arguments from angles that are correct, impeccable and educated. It's all in one's angle.
Wait a second... you "rephrased" my sentence because you've been reading Aristotle? You gave it a whole new meaning AND you contraticted yourself as you were trying to prove yourself right.
I didn't state anything as irrevocably true. But you are doing that very well with your long and boring law-student speach.

Just for you I read the posts again. There isn't a single hate referred to any band because it has a female front person. Expressed was dislike for a singer or a band overall.

One of the most intense metal bands in town has a female singer, and she's a flaming lesbian.

im sorry all i heard was
"blah blah blah im a girl who plays guitar blah blah blah"
my point was stop complaining about something you dont like and start finding something you do like.
but whatever.
you just want argue; i see law school has already penetrated your inner being. congrats to that.
It's speech, not speach. Lawyers make the world go 'round whether we like it or not. Without regulations of laws there would be anarchy.
You just responded to my statement with an ad hominem. You attacked my comment rather than prove it wrong or otherwise. I didn't give it a new meaning, I put your sentence into a different light.
I don't believe I contradicted myself. But if I did, please show me how. I also wasn't trying to prove myself right. I was showing you MY point of view.
In using only is to describe "sexist discussion", it implied your opinion as being truth. If you used "I think this is" or something of the sort it would have changed the entire mood of your statement I think. In my response I said that you stated it as if it were irrevocably true and as if you were the first, last and only individual to define what is and what is not.
I wrote "as if" twice to describe how your statement came across. Those were the operative words.

All you heard was something a 5 year old would respond with. That's mature.
Your point didn't come across very clearly. And I don't want to argue. A strong issue was brought up and I tried to clarify what's being discussed. It ended up being a stupid argument over how to argue and interpret statements.
Law school will give me the ability to write my own contract, protect my intellectual property and copyrights and have better control over all legal aspects of my career. My inner being has a hard shell that protects it from being mutilated and destroyed. That is how I'm still motivated regardless of others' effects on my environment.
I'm done with this, it's pointless.
Then why don't you rephrase your speech (please, don't arrest me for that) for: "I think what you are trying to say is XXX"?
You have too much of an attitude for someone who's practicing "do what I tell you, not what I do".
And
Don't lecture me. I just thought your primary question, the reason for this topic, was sexist. Am I entitled to my opinion? Thank you! I believe that questioning or caring if other people think women can be as great as men is sexist and I also think it's a shame that you, as a girl, should question something like that. The thought itself puts women in a lower level than men. If you remove the wild hair from your ass and actually become able to think about what someone other than you is saying, you will realize what I'm saying just common sense.
You're boring.

And
kind shows how amazingly right you think you are.
