In the early years of their friendship and career, Fleetwood Mac's Christine McVie and Stevie Nicks made a vow with each other that if they ever found themselves being treated with a lack of respect by their male musical counterparts, they would remove themselves from the situation as a way of taking a stand against sexism.
In a 2020 interview with NME, Nicks said: “Christine [McVie] and I were a force of nature. In the first two months I was in the band, Chris and I made a pact that we would never be in a room full of famous English or American guitar players and be treated like second class citizens.
