You figure 1 out of every 10 guys have some experience level of gutiar playing... So you're looking at 10% of the male population that plays/played guitar...... For girls it's more like 1 out of every 100 girls actually get involved at some level with guitar... putting it at 1 percent... The odds that a male guitarist stays with it for a long period of time is a lot smaller as well... So it's just a matter of the amount of male guitarist to the amount of female guitarists... The female population doesn't have the shear numbers that the male popluation of guitar players have to support a whole bunch of talent. That doesn't mean that there aren't talented female guitarists out there.
