I'm not terribly comfortable with this list as I'm sure there's some that should be in the top ten that I've missed. For male "frontmen", the pecking order is kind of established in popular mythology already.

Nitpicker.
Maybe Dolly belongs on the "Social History of the Bra" thread. That I deleted. And just for the record, that's the only thread that I actually regret having deleted.

Now you are talking! you could've added Brody from The Distillers at one time, but she is a piece of shit like her boy Josh Homme.

Is yins all gay now? Courtney Love! Check it bleeds, a sexy dishwater blonde with nice boobs, drinking Gatorade, swearing like a sailor, saying her piece - how do you not get a tingly feeling every time a woman fitting that profile floats through your mind at work?

Yeah, I know she's a real piece of work, but if she'd done nothing but Hole's first album, "Live Through This," she'd still be on my list.

Yeah, I thought of putting Joan in there too. She doesn't get half the respect she deserves. Still though, kind of disturbing how short that list is, even after all these years...

Joan Jett, of course, if you don't own sinner, than you suck...
An honorable mention to the entire line-up of L7!

Patti Smith is AMAZING.
I'm interested in Courtney Love's music. Is it any good? I read she's going to make a comeback. She must stop dating loser freaks first.

Her first album with Hole, "Live Through This" is outstanding.

PJ Harvey should be somewhere on those lists

That's the second album. The first album is "Pretty On The Inside," and after hearing that "Live Through This" was hard to get into. Gave it a few tries and never really listened to it after.
