You misunderstood me and it is my fault. I meant 'top 100' blah blah. I should have said
great guitarists as in those who are always used as a reference or that at least someone here thinks deserves to be.

Then, you said:

So, I posted a couple of guitarists I think are really good, and you said:

As for Kelly Richie and Jennifer Batton I have never heard them so cannot comment.

Of course you can't comment. You haven't heard them. But didn't you just ask for guitarists you haven't heard?
But you're the one that said you've been around musicians most of your life. That's where the condescension comes in. It sounds like you consider yourself an authority on the subject, like you know more than the rest of us in here.
No, I just meant that even amateur guitar players I have heard have this same dynamic going on. There may be good female guitar players but rarely great and never exceptional ones. It really does ind of blow my mind and I've honestly wondered why that is. But if you want to read something else in to that then be my guest.

But you know what? I named 4 female guitarists, and you've never heard of 2 of them. Maybe you haven't been around musicians quite long enough.
Maybe not because clearly those names must be ones I should be well aware of.

If I'm reading it wrong, I apologize. But it sure sounds like condescension to me.
That's last you'll hear from me. This has the potential to be a really good discussion, and I'm not going to bring it down by arguing with someone.
I've told you before, I have a much thiker skin (or harder head) than that. You aren't offending me in the least so please carry on.
