"Fever" Chapter #2 and #3

While reading these two chapters I thought it was really interesting how females became famous but were controlled by males.  It is mention that men controlled the song choices, production, arrangements, and managements.  I think that some men were taking advantage of this situation.  I think that women should have had the right to choose their own music and make their own arrangements.  On the other hand there were males who did help females in a good way.  I thought girls who were singing during this time were really brave.  They did not let stereotypes define them.  They found a way to overcome the stereotypes.  Furthermore I also thought it was really interesting how Tina was compared to Elvis.  The book mentions that she sang good and that it was really hard for a her and Elvis to find songs because their talent was too big.  She got the attention of producers and she ripped through gender.
