I think Chris' point was more more along the following
lines: we never hear or read comments like "Peter Gabriel
is one of England's finest male songwriters." Yet, I always
seem to be encountering this sort of qualification in
discussions of female songwriters (and writers and filmmakers
and painters, etc.). If I take him right (and no doubt he'll
correct me:), he thinks this smacks of sexism.

I would tend to agree.
