Wanted: Suggestions of Examples of Great Male Musicians, For List of Greatest Musicians of All Time

I really enjoyed the thread of comments in this post on the "Man Who Has It All" page, and am reproducing it here for posterity. Enjoy!

Elisa Lipponen It is unfair to drop a real artist out of the list just to add a male. Male musicians should have their own list for the people who are interested in that genre. (👍🏽 8.3K)

Annina Melissa No offense but I don't like male fronted bands very much. I'm not sexist, it's just something about the tone with the music doesn't quite ring right. A lot of them are just gimmicks anyway. No real talent, just using their bodies for female attention. (👍🏽 5.7K)

Mandy Keim I'm inspired at how many suggestions are here! It just shows how in touch with the plight of male musicians women are. All these meninists claim we don't give them credit, but here we've come up with at least 4 or 5 decent male musicians. We deserve a pat on the back, ladies! Way to be inclusive! (👍🏽 6K)

Charlie Derrick It would have to be a singer. Everyone knows that men are crap at playing instruments because their genitals get in the way. That’s just a scientific fact. (👍🏽 4.1K)

Krystal Garrison Didn't Janet Jackson have a brother who was quite talented? Michael, right? He was a good musician, but he really went overboard with the plastic surgery as he got older. I like men who have a more natural look. (7.7K)

Ya'el Noonan I’m flummoxed by this. Does your friend edit an actual music mag or a journal of political correctness? Either you want a list of the greatests or you want to tick a quota box off to keep raging meninists from throwing mantrums and getting testerical. There is no in between. (👍🏽 6.5K)

Shanna Kearns Rodgers Does it have to be a human male? It might be super cute and fun to include Kermit the Frog or something similar. Technically male and sings, so the men can’t complain. (👍🏽 2.5K)

Sarah Bond I feel terrible because I always try to be a meninist and supportive of my husband and sons but I honestly can't think of any male singers who could warrant being on a 'top musicians' list. And to just have a token male is detrimental to my sons. How are they going to learn to work hard to achieve if they think they'll be handed accolades on plate simply because they're men? It's a tough one... (👍🏽 2.3K)

Bryan Kent The girls from Hanson turned out to actually be all male. I know, I was just as shocked as you. It's such a shame the lengths men have to go to in order to taken seriously in such a matriarchal society. (👍🏽 2.1K)

Rebecca Ann Marianne Faithfull’s ex boyfriend was in a boy band. Of course they are really old now so probably no one remembers them. Marianne is still amazing looking though! It’s so sad when pretty men lose their looks. It’s not like they can fall back on talent. (👍🏽 1.3K)

Jacqueline Victoria Today you let a man on the list. Tomorrow it will be a dinosaur or a merry go round. Slippery slope and it's going too far. Music is a female institution for a reason. (👍🏽 1K)
