No.

Nah, not really.

No.

That one is much better than the other too, but yes I agree.

I understand what you mean, but I just think it's 2012 in general.
Boybands back in the late 90's and early 2000's were way better than the girls (sans DC )

No, I honestly don't mind male pop artists. also SIUTK isn't pop, and Gotye isn't pop artist either, and neither is maroon 5

I can't stand Goyte but you cannot call STIUTK pop.

I think it might be the kind if pop they make. Like people say males shouldn't do dance pop but I'm fine with it tbh..but I prefer the girls over the dudes when it comes to dance pop tbh..

Ed Sheeran is like an acoustic kind of pop & he slays..

Males can make great pop music.

The discrimination

Of course not

Many people are here for them.......MANY

GO AWAY YOU HAVE ZERO TASTE IN QUALITY MUSIC

and Gotye is Alternative, in what universe was STIUTK a pop song?

and the topic of this thread is completely sexist too. so it's not annoying if women make the pop music? but when men do it it's so completely obnoxious and horrible?

just because it's not your taste doesn't mean it's the world's taste. next.

The best pop artists were all men. Prince, George Michael, Michael Jackson, David Bowie. Sure there are more popular pop girls right now, but honestly, most of them are disposable, and rely on flash and elaborate Halloween costumes.

STIUTK is one of the best songs of the year.

Men do create quality pop music, in the sense that the writers and producers of the biggest pop hits today by females are indeed composed by males. When it comes to actual male artists, I do tend to agree. Many are very conventional. Someone needs to come in and push the boundaries by doing something distinctive like Michael Jackson did.

No.
