I basically get stereotyped a lot in terms of being a girl and writing 'chick' music for teenage girls or something.

I hate it when people don't recognize the work of women as being universal, or having any import to the world at large, as opposed to men's work, which is generally tends to be seen as more universal - men's writing about their own experience tends to be put in a broader context. ↗
