Lauren Mayberry of Chvrches has been very outspoken about the existence of misogyny in music.  In this particular article Luke O’Neil chronicles an incident Mayberry had with a male concert goer, who yells “Marry me” during the band’s set.  Mayberry proceeds to politely embarrass the man before continuing to another song.  This incident is a great example of exactly what Mayberry fights against, she believes that it is unfair that women are asked to take any and all criticism without even a hint of anger.
