That's a good reading of it. It might unfairly take the focus off of the music. I also just read an article from 1973 about women in rock and they interviewed Jackie DeShannon and Helen Reddy and they were talking about the double standard. Christine was quoted as saying a woman in a group shouldn't be treated like a groupie. Michele
