Wow, this has me thinking I wish I knew a girl that liked prog.. All the females I know like mainstream stuff, ie Fall out boy, All american rejects, "The Killers." (I guess there really is a band named that... the killers?!)
.. Now I'm lonely.

And my point is I don't know anyone, male or female, who listens to much prog--I wish I did! However, about the perception that women don't like prog, or older music in general...In high school it was definitely not okay for a girl to admit to liking anything not contemporary (the academic-minded crowd listened to Jack Johnson rather than 50 Cent), but once we were all in college I found out from Facebook that a lot of my former female classmates are into Led Zeppelin, the Doors, Jefferson Airplane, the Who. High school is weird like that. In college, almost everyone I know listens to some older
music. I've found the occasional Yes, Jethro Tull, and once ELP's
greatest hits in the shared iTunes directories of my dormmates (it is an all-women residence).

Well I'm a guy but I play with Barbie dolls, shop at Limited Too and idolize Aly & Aj so I put in six votes for each.

Seriously, to all the men who are complaining no women listen to
prog, you know other men who do? Because I don't. I know as
many men as women who randomly listen to one prog band, often Yes,
because their parents had a couple albums. |
i know at least 2 of my friends who listen to a lot of prog bands
(both male), but i haven't met a woman who do so (except in this forum,
of course)  |
Two of my friends (both male) are heavily into prog so as me, two
friends of mine really like prog (both Progressive Metal and one also
the 70s and Retro stuff).
If Sigur Ros, Radiohead, Muse and The Mars Volta (I guess they do) count as prog I do know a girl who listens to prog too.
