This is the Riot Grrrl Subreddit.

As Riot Grrl covers a wide variety of topics don't limit yourself to just the music and feel free to discuss any of the following topics on this sub as well: activism, feminism, punk, riot grrrl, zines, and anything related to these subjects.

Hello and Welcome to the Riot Grrrl sub, a place to talk about: activism, feminism, music, punk, riot grrrl (the movement and the music) and anything related to these subjects. This sub is for both riot grrrl nostalgia, the current riot grrrl movement, and wanting a riot grrrl revival. If you are interested in, want to learn, consider yourself a riot grrrl or boy, or have questions about riot grrrl, this is the subreddit for you as well.


What Is Riot Grrrl?

Riot Grrrl is an underground feminist punk rock movement that started in the early 1990's. The movement is often associated with third-wave feminism. Zines and DIY are a big part of the riot grrrl movement. Riot grrrl is also a genre of music.

Movie recommendation for anyone esp. my fellow queer/bi girls. I watched Drive-Away Dolls last night & it was a surprisingly fun film, super cute & quirky 💕

Trying to find a song

Hi! So i'm looking for a song that i used to listen to but can't find anywhere, i don't know the name or the artist, and i don't remember how / where i listened to it either.. help!

I only remember a bit of lyrics, and otherwise i think it was a fun, upbeat song. The lyrics i remember:

"Put a six pack, in your backpack, drink in (...) drink in (...) drink in (...) " with the ... being locations, maybe something like "drink in forests drink in parks"

Idk if this is enough for someone to recognize it but I'd looove to find it somehow 😊😊

opinions on the jessicka addams allegations?

i am SO obsessed with jack off jill and in about march 2023 when i was still getting into them, i found out about the SA allegations against her 😕 so disappointing recognizing the fact that like all of joj's songs were speaking against concepts adjacent to SA

during that time i dipped out of the drama because i thought jessicka really couldnt disappoint me 😭 but now i guess i've built up the courage to actually figure out if she's in the wrong or if it was proven false, i need unbiased opinions and context
