I'm not female, but 'Bang!' by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs seems fairly Girl Power-ish to me. It's bloody good, anyway - all about female sexual frustration.

I don't know...is there a song about making sandwiches and fetching beers???

"Who bought those shoes you wearing?

I BOUGHT 'EM!

Who bought that car you drivin'?

I BOUGHT 'EM!"

Glad to see Destiny's Child is finally showing the world through song that there are some females who can support themselves. SOME. Girl power!

A very sensitive gentleman named Dr. Dre once wrote a song called, "B----es Ain't ****."

I don't recommend this for your purposes.

I'm here to help.

I'm sorry but if I'm right in thinking that Girl is the latest one by Destiny's Child then no just NO it is an AWFUL song!!

Because the whole point seems to be that despite her friends wanting to stand by her she's sticking with him anyway!!

my my my people, so many posts yet no one mentions the princesses of girl power the spice girls. i don't blame anyone for forgetting them but they are pretty major in the 90s girl power movement, even if that movement only affected 5-10 year olds who for a few years thought as long as they wore big platform shoes and small union jack dresses they could conquer the world...... Anywaaaaaay, sure they were all girl power but which of there songs were actually about the issue at hand?

Can't Hold Us Down - Christina Aguilera

So what am I not supposed to have an opinion
Should I be quiet just because I'm a woman
Call me a bitch cos I speak what's on my mind
Guess it's easier for you to swallow if I sat and smiled

When a female fires back
Suddenly the target don't know how to act
So he does what any little boy will do
Making up a few false rumors or two

That for sure is not a man to me
Slanderin' names for popularity
It's sad you only get your fame through controversy
But now it's time for me to come and give you more to say

This is for my girls all around the world
Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
So what do we do girls?
Shout louder!
Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
Lift your hands high and wave them proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down

\nobody can hold us down
Nobody can hold us down
Nobody can hold us down
Never can, never will so what am I not supposed to say what I'm saying
Are you offended by the message I'm bringing
Call me whatever cos your words don't mean a thing
Guess you ain't even a man enough to handle what I sing

If you look back in history
It's a common double standard of society
The guy gets all the glory the more he can score
While the girl can do the same and yet you call her a whore

I don't understand why it's okay
The guy can get away with it & the girl gets named
All my ladies come together and make a change
Start a new beginning for us everybody sing

This is for my girls all around the world
Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
What do we do girls?
Shout louder!
Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down lil' kim:
Check it - here's something I just can't understand
If the guy have three girls then he's the man
He can either give us some head, sex her off
If the girl do the same, then she's a whore
But the table's about to turn
I'll bet my fame on it
Cats take my ideas and put their name on it
It's aiight though, you can't hold me down
I got to keep on movin'
To all my girls with a man who be tryin to mack
Do it right back to him and let that be that
You need to let him know that his game is whack
And lil' kim and christina aguilera got your back

But you're just a little boy
Think you're so cute, so coy
You must talk so big
To make up for small lil' things
So you're just a little boy
All you'll do is annoy
You must talk so big
To make up for small lil' things

This is for my girls...
This is for my girls all around the world
Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
So what do we do girls?
Shout louder!
Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down

This is for my girls all around the world
Who've come across a man who don't respect your worth
Thinking all women should be seen, not heard
So what do we do girls?
Shout louder!
Letting them know we're gonna stand our ground
Lift your hands high and wave 'em proud
Take a deep breath and say it loud
Never can, never will, can't hold us down
Spread the word, can't hold us down
