Great thread! Coincidentally, I've been researching like subjects for my own knowledge, but am including the whole spectrum of women's lives. From a woman-positive, even feminist viewpoint... am including songs about singleness, bisexuality, family life, friendships, struggles in the workplace, girlhood and awareness of impending womanhood, how men view women, how both genders change and grow as they mature. Whew! (smile) Katlaughing, if you have any input it would be very welcome. Others too, certainly.

There really are no historical songs about the thread topic coming to mind. Besides Ladyslipper I'd also recommend Harmony Ridge for women's albums.
