isn't it somewhat odd to call this 'women classical composers', as opposed to nothing? and isn't the adjectival form of 'woman' 'female'? or isn't that PC somehow? Boombaard (talk) 11:41, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I asked this question in the supercategory too, but

I'm confused why Pauline Oliveros is here while Shulamit Ran, whose style is arguably marginally more traditionally based, is in Category:Women composers. Rhyme or reason I do not see.
