Long before Madonna or Courtney Love, in part due to punk's D.I.Y. philosophy, women in the 70s began to express their sexual identities and preferences without outside interference. Debbie Harry is mostly known for her role as lead singer in punk-rock band, Blondie. Unlike the Sex Pistols, Ramones and Television, Blondie became the first crossover punk phenomenon.
