Hi Morgan
Well, I know where Bahrain is on the map, but thats as close as I have ever been to it. I imagine that it is like a few other forward thinking countries in that area though, especially as far as music goes. I am sorry to hear about your "friend" not teaching you because you are a girl but that happens all over the world, not just there. I have two daughters, one is 12 and the other is 14, and this christmas they are both getting guitars because thats what they want (and because I tend to indulge them). The oldest one wants a bass guitar and the younger one wants a pink (!) Strat. If anybody tells them that they can't play because they are girls I am going to be putting foot to ass pretty quickly.
You just keep practicing, and don't EVER let anybody tell you that you cannot do something like that because you are a girl. I think you need to look at some of the female guitarists that were mentioned by somebody else. Bonnie Raitt takes a back seat to NOBODY when it comes to guitar, and oddly enough, Dolly Parton (the one with the fake hair and real chest) is a TREMENDOUS player.
You have a lot of role models to look up to, so you keep doing what you are doing and I wish you the best of luck.
