Here's another song by the Butchies that I like: "Trouble."
Their music is fairly popular-sounding and seems to deal with more interpersonal issues (love, albeit love between women) than social issues but, gosh, I like the sound of their songs! And I love Kaia Wilson's voice....mmmmmmmmm.
In contrast, with a lot of the more punkier Riot Grrrl music I don't like to actually *listen* to the music because of its abrasive and less melodic sound.
Since women loving women, men loving men, and the breaking down of gender barriers so people are free to be themselves are an important part of feminism, I like that aspect of The Butchies' music. This message seems to be implicit in their music rather than being directly stated (at least in the songs I've heard). The Butchies' activism appears to be of the more subtle variety (at least based on the sound) rather than in-your-face-anger-activism, so their music may appeal to people who are put off by angry lyrics.
I have never heard of the Red Aunts! I'll see what I find out. Their name makes me curious.
