It's because of genres. A lot of female-fronted music (or at least that's popular on /mu/) is pop, which often has the musician(s) on the cover regardless of gender. If there were more black metal bands with female singers it would be different.

It's the same with women artists generally, though. Try to think of great women writers who didn't focus on personal relationships, even if they used them to address broader themes. There are exceptions: Annie Proulx, Flannery O'Connor, Ayn Rand (kinda), but there's no real female analogue to The Magic Mountain or Ulysses—dense autistic novels of ideas and experimentation, more interested in some kind of formal idealism and historical meaning than human relationships.

That's really not to say authors like Austen or Brontë are bad writers—certainly Austen is one the greatest English novelists of all time—but expecting even great women writers to write the same way as men, generally speaking, is just silly. It's the same with music. It doesn't mean they're stupid or bad artists.

For years now I've been staring at that album cover trying to figure out what it is, because I was perceiving it with the perspective reversed (the protruding areas appearing to be receding, and vice versa).

That must be why you guys are so notoriously easy to market to.

Obnoxious literal fags and skinny trust fund girls from Manhattan dictate what's in. It's called the fashion industry for a reason. 18-25 year olds are just dumb enough to think they invented the ideas they received 3rd-hand. You think Ryan Schreiber from p4k is under 25? You think that a metric fuckton of 18-25 year old kids don't listen to whatever p4k tells them?

No. The point OP was making is that female artists not putting themselves on their album covers is a rarity. Posting a handful of male albums with the artist on the cover doesn't disprove OP, it just proves that there was a butthurt cuck with an agenda.

OP has a problem with women. Probably because he's not interesting or charming or good looking enough for any woman to want his dickette.

Nigga if that was her thinking, she wouldn't have made the coverart so butt fucking ugly.

Not what the OP states or implies at all.
