Oh my god you're right! That is so ...odd. I'd really love to hear someone who knows more about country music than me talk about why the genre developed that way. *ponders*

Sadly, while it's what I mostly listen to on the radio, i'm probably not the one to ask. My preferences are oldies/showtunes and the female country/pop blend, but there aren't many oldies stations here, and most male vocalists in the US outside of country music use a kind of harsh and often abrupt delivery/accompaniment that it frequently gives me a headache. So while about 4 out of 5 country songs by men annoy me, I can listen to the station for more than 2-3 songs without developing a headache.

I'd say, though,that it's basically what happens when you have 2 people or groups exposed to the same thing, but one is on the benefitting end, and the other isn't.

That makes sense.
