Subject:  why female pop singers don't use head voice, much

lloyd,

the simple answer to this question is that a lot of people just don't
like it. there may be a multitude of reasons for this: they may not be used
to hearing it, they may find it so different from their speaking voices that
it is alienating for them to use it. there may also be a reaction against
that which is seen as historically feminine which, would include the use of
head voice. then again, it might just be that most people (the ones who
make 'pop' music what it is, popular) just can't stand that sound.
