The LA-based band Cherry Glazerr have written a lengthy post on Facebook about the "outrageous" level of sexism in the music industry.
Cherry Glazer stated that when on the road they've witness everybody from their own two female band members to sound engineers and even tour managers all being victims of "disrespectful" treatment.
Talking about what their female band members and other women in the music biz having to put up with, they wrote: "It’s outrageous. We walk into a venue and people look the other way. They treat us with open hostility. They ignore us, call us names.
"The amount of names our FOH has been called besides her own name, or at least, 'your front of house' is unbelievable - Miss, Missy, “The Lady”, sweetie. It’s simply disgusting."
However, in the post, Cherry Glazzer say they "don't blame men" in general but rather the "patriarchy, of which we are all victims".

Here's the full post from Cherry Glazerr : "The amount of sexism that my band and sound engineer / tour manager face on the road is simply unreal sometimes. It’s outrageous. We walk into a venue and people look the other way. They treat us with open hostility. They ignore us, call us names.
"The amount of names our FOH has been called besides her own name, or at least, 'your front of house' is unbelievable - Miss, Missy, “The Lady”, sweetie. It’s simply disgusting.
"We’re ignored, hated. It feels so awful when the stage manager looks at us and scoffs, looks the other way when we come in through the door. They ask us what we’re doing here, why are we here? Who are we? We’re the band that you hired... then they accuse us of being difficult, just for existing it seems."
They added: "I walk into a venue with an open mind and an open heart, I do not assume that people will be disrespectful to us. Why would they be? What’s the point of that? I assume that people hired to do their job are capable of just doing their job - greeting the band and taking them to the green room, loading in the gear, giving them a 10 minute warning before stage time."

Cherry Glazerr also stated: "These are things that people at venues should know how to do. Haha we would know. We’re a professional band, this isn’t our first rodeo. Instead they stand there with their arms crossed and sneer at us.
"And when we ask them for their help (their job), they roll their eyes and laugh at us, as if to say 'of course you need help'. When in fact it’s their job to help us. Any band.
"It makes me sick, fills me with a rage that I know can’t be healthy for me. I feel bad for them, living with such anger and stupidity. I don’t blame men, of course. I blame the patriarchy, of which we are all victims. But god damn, some of them really do make it hard not to."
