Pop music seems to be the way radio programming has chosen to support female artists. They have chosen not to support a more provocative voice from women, which I find disappointing.

More quotes by Shirley Manson
I am naive. I make mistakes - But I don't give a rat's arse how I am perceived!
Shirley Manson
When somebody asks me a question, I try to be as straightforward about it as possible. I try not to overthink what I'm going to say in an interview.
Shirley Manson
A lot of my friends are artists or musicians or single parent families and I'm totally aware of how difficult it is for them to make ends meet.
Shirley Manson
I'm 41, I'm a woman, not a kid. I have no interest in making silly pop music.
Shirley Manson
Here am I. I'm 38. My career's probably never been better. And I've made a decision which may or may not impact on it - I refuse to hide my experience and my age, as if it's something I should be ashamed of. I'm alive. I know lots of people who've never been lucky enough to get to this stage in their life. And I'm not gonna hide it for anybody.
Shirley Manson
I have women who offer to sleep with me all the time. But not men. They're all talk and nay action - as we'd say in Scotland.
Shirley Manson
In terms of fitting in, you know, I don't have a lot of armor up. I'm a raw nerve and it's really uncomfortable for a lot of people.
Shirley Manson
Ps. I am pretty certain Beyonce doesn't need you fighting any battles on her account. Seems like she's got everything covered perfectly well on her own.
Shirley Manson
What makes a woman stylish is what she has to say and how she chooses to live her life.
Shirley Manson
I just want to live my life a little freely and not adhere to any schedule - just make music and have fun.
Shirley Manson
Possibly because I grew up not feeling very confident about my own physical appearance, I developed internal devices so that I could integrate into society.
Shirley Manson
People don't associate red hair, pale skin, and freckles with beauty.
Shirley Manson
I want to hang out in Edinburgh with my friends and eat fish and chips wrapped in newspaper.
Shirley Manson
I think young artists are always inspiring because they are coming at worlds from a different point of view.
Shirley Manson
Somehow or another, my mother taught me to push through my fear, always. Feel the fear and do it anyway.
Shirley Manson
I say embrace the total geek in yourself and just enjoy it. Life is too short to be cool.
Shirley Manson
I mean, I tend to do my own thing, and that usually crosses purposes with everyone around me.
Shirley Manson
I think it's a great thing to have failed in life and then pulled yourself up by the boot straps and actually done something, because then you appreciate it more.
Shirley Manson
I am laughably aggressive, and the rest of the band is very laid back, so we mix well.
Shirley Manson
I'm 45 years old. I used to be a club girl, but that's not my world anymore. That doesn't mean I can't make music that excites. I think it's inspiring to see an artist you grew up with take another crack.
