Originally posted by CleverName Your argument kinda contradicts itself. If women are supposedly worse at math and science, wouldn't it be logical to assume they excel in the arts, social sciences, and communication, and by association, music? If you think EDM is the only genre of music that involves math and technology, you've got a lot of reading to do.

Actually, speaking of reading to do, recent research has shown that proficiency with music is more closely related to proficiency with math than any form of art to speak of. I don't mean to demean women, but if in fact they were by nature worse at math (which I don't believe for a second since my mother's got a BS in CS), then they wouldn't be good at music, either.

But more to the point, women can be just as skilled in making music and doing well in the field as men. The main problem is exactly what eletrikal has stated: women are not encouraged to do well in music, and the subculture of EDM is very intolerant of skilled female producers and DJs, as montana has pointed out.

Maybe cognitive differences play a minor role, but even in that regard, I have to wonder, since I hear the cognitive differences have been shown by some to be developmental as much as they are biological.

You can't critique something that doesn't provide enough of a "control" for demographics sake, so to speak. The statistics of this argument leave the original poster without a leg to stand on.

Of course, you could make some pretty ugly arguments out of this connotation... but that's merely senseless hating without enough information.

Stupid thread.

Maybe EDM has a low percentage of women because it's full of dinky twerps who like to bloviate about why having testicles makes a person better at music.
