How Not To Write About Female Musicians

lyriquediscorde:

I could go on for a very, very long time about how much this article resonates with me, how much I loathe what has been written about Lana Del Rey (and while we are at it, Taylor Swift) as of late.

I am also reminded of all that has been written about Courtney Love as scandalous/shameful, when one would never point such things out about other rock stars such as Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler, or even the late Kurt Cobain.

A really good read.

“I’m sure you’re a super-nice person, but surely you’re enough of a professional to be acutely aware that her being sweet on you is part of her job. Sorry.”

Ugh, this.
