This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Well Emmylou wrote the lyrics to it. And OMG it is a tearjerker so full of emotion.
I personally wouldn't argue the main point (men are way more into the trappings of "romance" than women are) because that's been my experience too. But there have been historical barriers to entry for women in the arts.
Kacey Muskgraves writes some sweet love songs (also more country like the other 2) .
Maybe cultural too, Spanish chanteuses sing a lot about love, more than I hear in other American pop music.
