Depends on what you define "dress like a man" as...

Seems since I started letting my wife dress me all of the other women have been more attentive to me. Too bad for them I'm taken!

Speaking of women bass players, here's a site dedicated to them. Some Ric players there including Amy Humphrey of Clatter.

Amy is pretty kool. I talked to her a little on myspace. She actually wrote me back.

OOOOH! You guys know Clatter?!?!! I love their music! Amy Humphrey takes a very unconventional approach to bass-playing . . . she has too, though, considering it's a two person band.

That's awesome that she responded to you, Jacob. She seems like she'd be a really cool person.

Yeah, Not only did she respond we had like really long messages. Talked about her ric and her 12 strings and a few things like that. Was pretty kool.

I may of found them on your page. I dont know. I found them from someones page when the myspace thing was going around. There still on my top 8 if anyone wants to check them.

I know Amy from posting on the Harmony Central bass forum. I haven't posted there much in the past year, so I'm not sure if she still does.

There was a girl from Scotland who used to post here, there have been a few over the past two or three years but they don't seem to stay.

We must be too geekishly obsessed with our Ricks and scare them away!

And Welcome, ladies!!

Animal, mineral or vegetable?

Maybe I can persuade an ex-girlfriend of mine, Micaela (=Michelle) to post some comments under this thread. She is 41 and an unbelievably accomplished bass player, even though she's never been in a band or taken formal bass playing lessons. She plays a late '80s Music Man, but would like to find a fretless 4001. Too bad she's never wanted to pursue a career in music, really.
