I'm sure you get your posers in any scene, but I've known quite a few girls who were and still are genuinely into heavy metal music, some for over a decade now. Also, it's a myth that metal fans are just angry frustrated boys, as there have been psychology studies which have shown that personality traits between heavy metal and classical music fans are very similar, if not, practically identical. Heavy metal is also the music of choice for the intellectually gifted.

A lot of hipster girls where Metal shirts and don't know anything about the bands. It's just a fashion thing.

It's all about image. While there are some, very few, girls that do like metal, most of them are just posers, they claim they do just to look cooler than all the other "conventional", "normal" chicks and because some also like the bad boy look of some metalheads. That's it.

And if you went to their myspace/facebook/whatever page you'd always find as favorite bands this huge list with all the cool and "need to like" names of the scene, sprinkled with some more obscure names that they probably found on some website to make it look like they actually knew something about the scene but then I can't remember how many times I've heard girls , not only in the metal scene but also in the goth scene saying things like:

her: band X is my favorite band ever, I love them
me: oh, cool, what's your favorite song/album, whatever...
her: oh, you know, I'm not good with names, I just like them.



It's all about image.

And then there's always those girls, and guys too, that wear band shirts not even knowing who said band is, that actually irritates me, you're not cool, you're just an idiot.

Exactly, I doubt that girl can name one Iron Maiden song, and with all those tattoos it just screams "look at me", "look at me", "I'm pretty but I'm not like other pretty girls", "I'm so cool", "look at me".

I've been going to metal shows, off and on for the past 18 years or so, my brother is really into punk and metal, not main stream stuff either, like GG Allin and Anal Cunt. He's dated some fucked up metal chicks and most of them have very low self esteem and would want him to do some nasty shit to them, one girl would lay in the bath tub and he'd take a big piss all over her! I've gone to a few shows with some guys from work in Edmonton (which gets really good tours) and they're almost always a big sausage party, a lot of poseur type people. It seems that in North America, there's only two types of metal girls: suburban poseurs or hard core ones with mental problems and drug addictions.

Now contrast that with Colombia, I guarantee you if you walk around the neighborhoods of Chapinero and Sante Fe, you'll never see so many cute, sexy girls rocking metal tees. They get decent shows there as well, Megadeath and Hate Breed played while I was there. Bogota is also home to the largest outdoor metal concert in South America (its free to attend), Rock Al Parque: http://rockalparque.com.co/

I don't know how my bro listens to this shit

No one who has ever gone to Wakken will say chicks don't like metal.

Some of the most vile and violent sex has been with a metal girl/fetish model. She genuinely liked both metal and pain. I pull metal girls pretty easily because I truly what many beta metal heads aspire to be: violent and malevolent, and they sense that. I also know more than I care to admit about old school black and death metal.

Whenever I pick up a chick in my car, regardless of her music taste I'm usually listening tomid 90s black metal. I don't give a fuck.

To me it's just a fad. Kind of like the whole geek and nerd thing. Are there some legitimate attractive ones? Sure, few and far between, but other than that it's move along, nothing to see here.

I was hardcore back into metal back from when I was middle school up until like college...still really enjoy the music though my tastes have expanded quite a bit since then to include a lot of stuff I would have been embarrassed back to be caught listening to back in then. In high school I was known as the metal guy - walking around with my Slayer "South of Heaven" and Cannibal Corpse t-shirts and long hair. I can tell you that the metal scene is mostly a massive sausage fest and like any other male-dominated subculture, a good percentage of the few girls who are involved in it are there because they know just by virtue of being female they are going to stand out. A good example of this is all the girls claiming to be "nerds" and trying to attention whore in the video game scene these days.

The truth is that women generally don't develop interests in hobbies, skill sets, ideas in the same way men do. Men, when they become interested in music, sports, or hell even video games usually also develop a desire to MASTER it in some way - whether directly or indirectly. Mastering used in this context doesn't mean necessarily mean directly performing the activity they are interested in. For example, a guy who is really into sports but isn't athletic himself might instead just work on "mastering" sports in an indirect way such as memorizing statistics and plays. A guy who doesn't have musical talent himself and is incapable of directly mastering music might instead do something like memorizing the discography of his favorite band and learning about the trivia surrounding the recording of his favorite songs.

Women on the other hand, when they get involved in the scene that surrounds a particular band, a sports team, or whatever don't care about the actual band or team or whatever. What matters to them instead is the SOCIAL elements of the scene. A good example of this is sports, particularly with college football. Any time I see females in a crowd at some college football stadium I already know half of the girls in the crowd have no idea what's going on the in the game outside of the fact that the ball being closer to the other team's goal = good. For them, the enjoyment doesn't come from the game itself but from feeling like they are part of something and that they are bonding with other people. The fun for them is everyone wearing the same colors and cheering in unison with other people. A guy might watch a game by himself on a couch while drinking a beer if for some reason he can't go out with buddies to watch it. Can you imagine a girl doing the same? When a girl bangs the alpha male of a particular scene whether it be the quarterback of a football team or some local popular hipster guitar player she doesn't care about his actual accomplishments or skills. What actually turns her on is the man's status in the scene and how he is respected and exalted by other men.

Good 'ol Arthur Schopenhauer actually talks about this in his infamous "On Women" essay:

"This makes them incapable of taking a purely objective interest in anything, and the reason for it is, I fancy, as follows. A man strives to get direct mastery over things either by understanding them or by compulsion. But a woman is always and everywhere driven to indirect mastery, namely through a man; all her direct mastery being limited to him alone. Therefore it lies in woman’s nature to look upon everything only as a means for winning man, and her interest in anything else is always a simulated one, a mere roundabout way to gain her ends, consisting of coquetry and pretence."

Even without Slash, GnR is awesome. Mostly Emo sluts like metal bands like Bullet for My Valentine, As I lay Dying and other hardcore metal/metalcore, but I like to call it PUNKcore.

And I always thought it odd that I like metal and Beethoven, Wagner, etc.

Guess not...

Agreed. Every chick that I know who likes metal is ugly as fuck, fat, or retarded. Generally all three. Is there anything less appealing than some chick screaming at the top of her lungs and throwing up the devil horns? Nasty bitches. My good friends girlfriend is like this and the bitch grosses me out. Gnarly.

My current GF also listens to metal and plays classical music on a piano

Yea, and anger is an emotion that has been repressed in men since feminism took over. Thank God for metal. Granted some of it is talentless garbage like any style. However, IMO, it takes 10x the talent and effort to perform than most other "pop" styles ever will, and it is one of the last bastions of men not yet destroyed by feminist culture.

I don't really care about what they like or not. I don't go to metal concerts to pick up chicks. I go to metal concerts to bang my head and hear music.

And I just know 2 cute metal girls and two hot girls that likes some metal. Kissed three, one called me a ladies man and playfully avoid my kiss, fingered one and banged another one.

May I introduce you to Grave Digger?




German Heavy metal meets Wagner's Ring of the Nibelungs. Ofcourse it is awesome.

metal forums are pathetic
6/10 girls get worshipped for listening to something. not doing something, but collecting shirts and listening to bands. I'll take a woman who listens to top 40 over a metal chick. I dont give a fuck what women listen to. The only thing the shirts and chaiins say to me is that she has daddy issues so she'll probably like it rough

I've always thought this was pretty well known.

Even people who aren't into metal and find it cheesy and over the top have to admit that it's more technical and requires higher levers of musicianship to play the the majority of modern music. Yngwie Malmsteen's music is pure cheese but all those hipster indie guitar players wouldn't be able to do the same things he can do on the guitar.

I was at a concert a few weeks ago and a local metal band started playing. The pit forms and some white girl with dreadlocks (wtf haha) is on the edge pushing people as they pass by. Somehow, she got thrown into the pit and they had to stop it so she could get out lol.

What are you saying? I'm a big-time metalhead, and Motley is certainly Glam Metal. What other metal bands do you listen to? I'm a musician as well, so I know what metal is and what Hard Rock is.
