13001073, Has R&B always been this gender polarized?

As in, it's not cool for the straight man to proclaim his love for that new Beyonce track (I mean is there any way to clear a dance floor of men quicker than playing Beyonce?)

Wasn't really like that with Mary back in the day was it?


Even the male R&B artist like Chris Brown seem more...hip-hop centric "hard" in a way that would turn off a lot of women (and yet, there are still alot of women who "These Hoes ain't Loyal" is there jam).


Or is it artist specific?

Fellas, are their female artist today you can bump in the ride without fear of getting clowned by your boys? Or is it no R&B at all in the ride with the fellas?
