Hmm. . . it just doesn't really work for me.

Well, the testosterone-drenched "it's great to be a man" and "I'm getting laid all of the time" songs do get me a little down at first, they remind me of my lack of masculinity. But nope, nothing really makes me feel masculine or particularly womanly. I just listen to music and enjoy it. No gender involved.

I love Bjork.

She oozes feminine sexuality, she explodes with talent, and seems illuminated with intelegence.

Her act combines the feckless passions of a young girl with the sexuality of a woman.

Her songs are positive and frequently move me. Every word, she infuses with passion and such feeling.

This song is about her latest love. She describes it as Big Time Sensuality. All the silliness, the mania, the joy, it's all here.

I'm not aware of her ever attempting to be crude, vulgar nor seeking to destroy imagination.

This seems to me to be a female artist, making feminine statements about being female.

Hmmm... What puts me in touch with my girlyness? Sleater-Kinney is a big one...



Another is Liz Phair (love her early stuff)



Yet another is Aimee Mann...

DO I ever feel out of place.  >:-) Ot3p is one of if not my most fav group, but I have always been a heavy~metal type of girl.
I know it's totally irrelevent to the thread, but just had to say OMG I FREAKING LOVE HER

Sorry if I'm resurrecting a thread unnecessarily, I can never help adding my two cents even when a topic's dead..  :P
None of the music I actually listen to (voluntarily, at least , ;) ) really makes me feel particularly masculine/feminine, but I'll always associate heavy rap music with masculinity. I actually hate the music, but I play on an otherwise all guys ice hockey team, and the locker room pre-game (I go in after I've changed elsewhere) has always got Lil Wayne or some similar music blasting out.

Just realized about twenty minutes ago that Evans Blue's music (particularly their song "Quote") makes me feel Mascline

Interesting topic, as for feminine I say Avril Lavigne, Evanescence, and Flyleaf because I hit every note with my high pitched voice but I still roam around singing it cause I love it

Masculine... definitely Eminem. He is my "blow off steam" type rapper. Whenever I'm stressed and just wanna run my mouth about stuff that is what I listen to. I really can't listen to rap/rock/pop without singing along with it. But singing his songs, Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and Nickelback make me feel masculine.

For me the choices would be Kate Bush, especially her  Kick Inside album,
Angie Hart from Frente',  Katy Steele's band 'Little Birdy', and anything by Grace Slick, especially early Jefferson Airplane.

Any guys who want to hear something masculine could give Til Lindermann from Rammstein a listen, especially some of their sea-shanty/marching song influenced tracks like 'Rosenrot', 'Ohne Dich', or 'Reise Reise'.

I love Little Birdy, ordered 'confetti' from australia especially (I'm in the UK), she has such an odd and powerful voice.

I feel all masculine and comfortable and confident, when I listen to my favourite albums and songs. They have been with me for years now, and feel like old friends.
For example John Denver's live album "The wildlife concert", or Garth Brooks' "The Chase", "Scarecrow", "No fences".
Totally the countryfish, I know.

Huge fan of the LoA here.

And when I really want to get the guy on, nothing beats: If You Want Blood You've Got It.  AC/DC, 1978, Bon Scott - accept no substitutes.

For me, I prefer anything by Alanis Morissette or Gwen Steffani (whether she's in front of No Doubt or not). Oddly enough, some of Brittany Spears' stuff, particularly "Stronger," evokes feminine feelings.

Others that jump to mind:

"What it Feels Like for a Girl" ~Madonna
Man! I Feel Like a Woman" ~Shania Twain
"Dancing Queen" ~ABBA
"Candyman" ~Christina Aguilera
"I Need a Hero!" ~Bonnie Tyler

Some of the songs on my playlist.

OMG Every song you listed even Bonnie Tyler, are songs I love haha. Although Brit is my number one for eva!
