Even if you are correct in arguing that there is a difference in technical capability between men and women, and that women relatively lack in that regard, it doesn't thereby mean that the technical skill involved in DJ and production is by consequence out of reach.

...so I don't know where you're deriving that idea that the necessary technical skills lie on the 'generally unattainable side' for women.

great theory, except for the cognitive differences you speak of state that men are more visual and women are more auditory.

not all female dj/producer's are bad. Sophie sugar,kristina sky and suzy solar are very good imo.

It is true that a woman has a smaller brain than a man?

I love some of Joan of Arcs earlier works... only classical worth listening to IMO. Pretty sure she's a woman.

As far as early techno goes Mary Wollstonecraft was also way ahead of her time.

Woa brah, chill with the sexism. I can think of plenty of fantastic female DJs and producers (some of which are TAs), why are you hating on that shit?

There's plenty of female DJs in hard dance, Kym Ayres, anne savage, lashes, pinup, amber d etc, theres a big devoid of them in say, prog house though.

I think generally, and this is just a generalisation, while girls do like dance music they tend to be less 'geeky' about it if you will. They'll like a track, and dance to it in a club etc but will they ID it and hunt down the white label like a lot of guys would? Probably not.
