No One's Female And Male, We All

I Was In A Band In The '90s Called Bikini Kill, And We Were So Freaked Out About Documentation Then, And There Was The Whole Thing, Not Just About The Male Gaze, But That People Were Going To Misrepresent You... A Kind Fear Of The Mainstream That A Lot Of Us Had.

What (some) Bands Do Is Go, 'it's Not Important That I'm A Girl, It's Just Important That I Want To Rock.' And That's Cool. But That's More Of An Assimilationist Thing. It's Like They Just Want To Be Allowed To Join The World As It Is; Whereas I'm More Into Revolution And Radicalism And Changing The Whole Structure. What I'm Into Is Making The World Different For Me To Live In.

I Would Love To Make A Bunch Of Country Demos And Write Country Songs For Really Great Country Singers.

The Exciting Thing About Getting A Label Together And Doing Press For It Is That Hopefully Some 15-year-old Girl Who Is The Only Feminist In Her Junior-high Class Will Hear About It And Be Like, "oh, Cool, I Hadn't Heard Of That, I'm Going To Check It Out."

See Who Else Is Interested And Join Other People's Projects That Have Already Started That You Like. You Don't Always Have To Reinvent The Wheel And Start Your Own Thing.
