Riot grrrls

So, for our readings today we had to read Riot Grrrrls.  I got about 7 paragraphs in before I was irritated.  They want to be this feminist, good-for-girls, in-your-face, punk group, but they refuse to be in the media.  How is something so supposedly good for females supposed to spread unless you are right there in the middle of it all?  I have never heard of Riot Grrrls before and I am not sure I want to.  Just from their act of refusing to be on/in media it gives me the message that they want to be in hiding, and that they don't really want their message to spread.  What is the point of having a message if you don't want it to be heard?  Why even have a message if the only people who are going to hear about it are the people who have heard it a million times?  That is like knowing about STD's and not spreading information about them.  I stopped reading it after those 7 paragraphs.
