Yes that's right, those who are sad to lose their money because of gambling are those who use more money than what they can afford to lose in gambling, maybe someone's view of having fun in gambling is different, the case may be like what you said we feel happy but we also feel bad because we lose like unlucky. This can also be different, there is someone who gambles no matter he loses even though the upset is there because he lost the bet to his friend, but does not see how much money is lost, but sees that when watching the ball is fun if betting, and losing is a reasonable option when not lucky, the important thing is that we are not impulsive if take a bet.

I don't think the issue right now is about holding tight their money, women right now are gradually coming out of their shell and the only challenge they are having right now in  the gambling industry is the society's opinion about women who gamble. We all know the society we find ourselves in does not approve of women gambling, once people see women gambling,  negative thoughts begin to set in. Women who gamble are being stereotyped and this is the major reason women who are interested in gambling are being careful while many others shy away from it completely.  All thanks to online gambling which allows women to gamble from the comfort of their homes and still have their identities protected from the society.

Currently, in several countries, gambling is still dominated by men. Even though it is true, currently and perhaps for a long time women are also involved in gambling. and it is considered normal. that's also my opinion in cases like that.

when a gambler loses control of himself which results in losses to himself or others. then what is wrong is not the gambling. but the gambler is in the wrong.

there must be a feeling of disappointment. but it won't be long. Lying to ourselves about the defeat we received can also help us not to get lost in regret. in the end, the decision to play is up to us. So even though there are regrets, we must still accept them wisely.

I don't know for sure where my gambling winnings ended up. but what is certain is that if it is a big win, I will make it into an item. such as smartphones or other real assets.
but if it's a small win, usually I'll just stop playing and hold onto my assets for another game.

I will refuse it, even when the person borrowing it is a friend of mine who also knows that I also gamble. I always avoid borrowing for my gambling activities. I've experienced it and it's bad for me.

to stop I can't limit such pleasure. but I did limit the amount of funds I allocated for betting. that's the only control I can continue to exercise in my gambling activities.

After a big win, I usually stop for a while. but to completely quit gambling, might be difficult for me. at least for now, don't know tomorrow.

You mean you will hit on them.
I understand. Maybe it's because we rarely see a woman in a physical casino and I think you are not the only one who would do the same thing. Maybe others will even try to offer a drink just to get their attention or to approach them. I believe I have done those things too back when I was young and hot-blooded.
I am not like other traditional people who think women should not be in a gambling place. We have different stories in our lives and we should not just judge anyone because of their sex, race, or how they look. They could be rich people who are just trying to be entertained or they could be the ones working for their family and just trying to have some fun on their day off at work. Stress relieving. Different purposes, and different reasons, and that should be enough basis to respect them and just let them play if they want to.

Doesn't charisma, regardless of gender, hide human behavior's complexities? You're highlighting a major misconception: that financial success protects against addiction. Isn't it fascinating that men and women fall into the same psychological pitfalls despite financial management narratives? Gambling is a test of self-control and impulse, not financial competence.

Your local gambling couple? A glimpse of a more comprehensive picture. Two people sharing a vice walk the line between financial ruin and relationship disaster. Recognizing that gambling's appeal often blindsides rationality, regardless of gender, is the issue.

Self-control isn't simply about going against the temptation to gamble; it's about understanding why. Self-awareness and the realization that gambling is a trap are the keys for them and everyone else. Instead of climbing, it dives deeper and darker until investment is forgotten. Thus, discussions that transcend gender norms and focus on the common struggle against addiction are essential.

In my opinion woman gamblers are much less than male gamblers so male gamblers dominate all gambling platforms where women are not seen much. Moreover, the number of women gamblers is very less in other countries except some developed countries. I have not seen any female gamblers gambling directly but I have some female friends on online platforms who enjoy gambling in their free time. From the more conversations I have had with them, I understand that they are very careful about gambling. They try very hard to hold on to their money. It seems to me that they are somewhat more conservative than men. I think they can't take risks like men.

not everyone wants to gamble by showing their face, there are some who deliberately hide their identity so that other people don't recognize them. in particular, most people today still think that women's involvement in gambling is still taboo and they will be seen as negative, and perhaps for this reason many women who want to be involved in gambling prefer to hide their identity as happened in your case.

however, i personally don't see that women's involvement in gambling is something that needs to be a problem, because whether they are women or men, everyone should have the same rights to be able to access gambling.

Yeah not everyone has a good mindset on this, some just gamble too much and lose a lot of money and often get too sad about it, I have a friend who likes to stake high like me, although it's not that much that would make me feel uneasy and him too but when ever he loses he feels that it woudl have been better he had spend his money on  something more productive maybe food or go out chilling with it, so in that case I'll say he wasn't ready to lose that amount and gambling isn't fun that way, if you ask me.

I don't feel bad whenever i lose money when gambling, but that is because i don't gamble with an amount that i cannot afford to lose, people who feel terrible when they lose money to gambling is mostly people who put too much money into it, money that they cannot afford to lose. I can feel bad if i was unlucky in a bet, i.e. if i go for soccer betting and i got one prediction wrong, i would feel bad, but not because of the money i lost, but because of i was not lucky.

Yeah this is very true most peopel often get lost in over excitement of winning and tend to play more games that they out to and spend all their wins on gambling again, this is a very honest opinion, I know the tendencies of this happening amongst gamblers especially when  won through virtual or simulated games like casino games, but those that win of rela live features don't always have thsi attitude cause it takes patience for their to come.

Self-deception in gambling is perhaps one of the most confusing stories on this topic.
When you get caught up in gambling and can't stop, it's easy to start deceiving yourself. You may think, “It's just fun, I'm in control,” but that's often not the case. You may tell yourself that you “just want to relax a little,” but this is a dangerous delusion. It seems to me that women are especially susceptible to self-deception in gambling.
But it's important to be honest with yourself and admit the problem. Discuss your feelings with loved ones and seek help from specialists. This is the only way to begin the healing process. Don't lie to yourself - you deserve a better life without gambling.

I genuinely do feel bad about it each time I lose a gamble (usually on cryptocurrencies). But then I think- "it's all part of the game" and I instantly feel better again, HA!

Overconfidence can indeed be a big issue when it Gambling. The problem with most gamblers is that they overestimate their chances of winning and this often leads to reckless decisions with their money and high risk taking that'll likely have consequences.
 This is mostly common for gamblers who have had series of success in the past, they'll feel like their chances of loosing are very slim which is very unwise, and this will lead them to taking bigger and bigger risks. Of course just like you pointed out, this could lead most people into serious debt because of their Gambling habits.

I know I'm from a younger generation so my answer is going to be a little bit different, whenever I see women in gambling, my first instinct is to try and get her attention unless it's an online gambling, it's going to be a different thing. I don't believe though that men are going to be indifferent when there's a women out there in the gambling scene though, when something is unusual, you almost always want to try and get their attention especially if they're your type. I can't be saying that all men are like that but I'm a man so I know how our mind's work, some of us aren't that different when a woman is involved. Regarding feeling about them being on the gambling scene though, I think it's nice because that means that everyone's got a fair chance and everyone's allowed unlike back then where one gender is strictly assigned to a role that a deviation from it would lead to a punishment.

One thing that affect most gamblers which lead them to behave the way they behave on the aspect of wager amount is over confidence, they don’t treat gambling the way it should as something that the possibility of winning is very slim, but rather some gamblers after making a little prediction about a particular game they see the game as something that deserve a high staking which most of them time some of them go as far as taking loan due to the high trust they  have for a game that will end up playing against their prediction.

One must learn to manage their bank role while gambling, that's what contribute to a responsible gambling habits. Anyone that makes drastic while gambling can experience more significant loses because they stake too much on one game that has a 50/50 chance to be a win or lose. Some gambler don't know how to manage their bankroll or they just gamble with their emotions.

I've never seen one either but thats because it looks immoral for a woman to visit a gambling location, its something that men do, but today we have online casinos, and its a perfect fit for females that want to take risks on sports and others.


Its not doubt, such people are irresponsible gamblers, they choose to risk all they have and they are the type that cares about themselves only, gambling is risky and many people know this, but they believe that they are diffrent, they knew what could probably happen to them, so I don't pity.


I don't feel bad when I gamble, because the money I use to lose is not worth feeling bad about, its the type of money that one can easily spend on drinks and foods, unless they don't have a source of income.



I haven't win any life changing amount from gambling before but when I win I always keep some amount aside for future gambling and I put some money back into Bitcoin too, holding Bitcoin is far better than risking money on gambling, just a plus.





No one has ever ask me for money to gamble, if this is what they plan to use the money for, I am sure that they won't tell because its easier to be pissed and say no to them.




We all have our own rules, if you don't I advise you should consider one, I have my own limit that I risk on gamble and I have limited days in a week for gambling also, I am very much discipline to stop gambling when I lose my balance and I don't move funds that I am not ready to lose into any casino acc.




I could, because I am gambling to have some fun, and that's a good reason to always come back and gamble, for many its only money but for people like me, fun is a huge plus why we gamble.

Absolutely, this is an important rule for all bettors to remember. Diversification is essential in any investment or financial decision, but it is particularly vital in gambling. Putting all of your money on one event is not only hazardous, but also leaves little opportunity for mistake. Spreading your bets across multiple events allows you to reduce your losses while still having the opportunity to reap the benefits.

If the man realize that there is an area of sports or games to gamble on that the woman is good at, he is likely to give her that chance to exibit her gambling talent but not that the man should be expecting such kind of help from the woman because if you get your mind fixed on the woman helping you afterwards winning her bet and then she doesn't begin to act or do to your expectations of help, that may cause some reaction from you and eventually would cause trouble in the home. So, it is better not to keep your hope on the winning from the woman or wife but if the husband is lucky that the woman supports him from her gambling winning then that is fine.


If you see gambling as fun then you will always run back to it whenever you want to be happy. Some people when they get angry, they resort to smoking or drinking so likewise if you like to gamble for fun. So instead of transferring aggression, you can relax with your favorite gambling game and forget the anger. This is a very good strategy from men and that has really helped to control certain perceived eruptic situations in the family.

Actually the casino owners and other gamblers are very welcome with women, some offline casinos even give free drink for women.

There's nothing new for women wants to gamble, but for discrimination, I guess it's happen in everywhere. Even you live in the most non discrimination country, there's will be always a person will make fun about you. Discrimination never ends except every people in the world have a same height, body, face, color, ethic etc.
