I wonder why it's so rare for girls to use btc.....  Huh

Because it's hard to find tech savvy girls.

Its actually not that hard if you keep your mind open and dont be an arsehole about girls having no clue of technical things.

Not to disparage the fairer sex, but it's just the way we evolved. Men are more willing to take risks than women on average.
Bitcoin is still seen as risky, so there ya go.


I disagree .... Go watch the TV series Dragon's Den and see how much women start businesses or have very innovative ideas. Go to http://www.cbc.ca/dragonsden/

The same goes for Shark tank --> http://www.tv.com/shows/shark-tank/ .... Do not underestimate the creativity of women.

Men are also becoming more and more under educated --> http://www.bloomberg.com/bw/articles/2012-04-11/men-are-becoming-the-undereducated-gender

Of course! I should get my behavioural science statistics from tv shows rather than peer reviewed scientific studies.
What was I thinking?

Keep telling yourself that,

Don't need to ... it's a fact, and others are able to tell us that fact better than me: https://www.nber.org/papers/w14713

Yeah, Im not going to read that paper nor will I bother to find one that states the opposite. Just becasue a paper found that from the sample set of people they tested they found woman less prone to risk does not make it a fact. There are examples of woman taking great risks like e.g. Boudicca or Rosa Parks despite their surroundings. Society forces (or forced) men and(!) women into certain roles. All this does is limiting biological potential. Men have to be strong and take risks is the same nonsense as saying woman are not interested in technology and belong in the kitchen. All these statements do is reinforce an existing narrative that holds humanity back.

Quote
the appetite for risk is rather acquired than inborn. It is also possible to invest in bitcoin without risk at all. As you can be invested on an educational level and dont have to spend a single cent to aquire bitcoin. If you consider bitcoin as a hobby you care about and that helps you learn and grow, no time you invest is wasted and every coin you earn along the way is pure profit, no matter the price. This is true regardless of your genitals. I would guess that there are many women interested in bitcoin without flaunting about their gender, it is of no matter here anyway.

All more or less true, but unrelated to my statement.

But of course it is. You claim females are not interested in bitcoin because its risky. I show you that bitcoin does not have to be risky, which removes the basis of your point. Whether or not someone is interested in bitcoin is not based on how prone to risk they are, but how interested in bitcoin they are. I would not even say in technology in general because I know plenty of men and women that do not care about bitcoin one bit even though they care a lot about other things "tech".

By the majority of people, bitcoin is still deemed unsafe, risky, scary, experimental at best. Half of those people are female.

The majority of people regardless of their genitals, yet all I hear here is "women dont care about bitcoin". Where are the "do men use bitcoin?" threads? Its sill to ask that right? Yes it is, its also silly to ask whether or not women use bitcoin.

Bitcoin is used by a small fraction of all people. From those that care about bitcoin females are probably the minority, but the same is true for chefs.

I won't reply to most of that rant because I didn't intend to start a sexist discussion here.
I simply stated a fact about averages.
Nothing you have said is relevant.
Npthing you have said even provides any contrary evidence about averages.
You exaggerate my statement to ridiculous levels to be able to knock it down. Look up 'straw man'.

The lyrics are incorrect. It says "only 20 Bitcoins in my pocket". Whoever holds 20 (ideally 21, just for the sake of being on that select club) is going to be a millionaire in the next decade. Therefore, whoever did that song is either trolling, joking or completely clueless about Bitcoin and is only doing it to get social media views or something.
lol all she did was change the word dollars to bitcoin from the macklemore song, im sure she wasnt thinking about the net worth of her pocket and comparing it to the average consumer. Lips sealed

Girls Welcome. Ali Spagnola, not so much. I want my 23 seconds back. In Europe you can ask YouTube/Google to take down offensive videos, I think. Oh... and she's not getting any of my BTC. Sorry, not sorry.

I saw few girls in some dice site , only few girls used bitcoin maybe because their profession is far from computer thing. Plus girls more loves surfing in social media facebook, IG, twitter, etc. than surfing in the forum or playing in online gambling site.

That depends on the perspective for example as you've said you see ony a few girls who is on the techy thing but then if you would see the other perspective such as there are indeed girls who is more nerder (I don't know if there is such word LOL) Cheesy then your perspective on how you view girls will definitely change. It's jut that it's the stereotypes of todays community. People needs to look deeper tho and not just judge based on the dense details they could see.

The idea that men and women are the same is the stupidest thing to come in this retarded PC age.

No one claims that man and woman are the same. Equal yes, but not the same. Equal is where neither is superior to the other, the same is where eveyone has boobs. I can understand however that intellegent women tend not to interact with you if that is your view on things.

Yes. I do not see why we need to care on gender when we have success with bitcoin after all. This is because usually men go forward with taking risk, women wont usually. Bitcoin survived many years now there is no point we see both the genders accept it and use it in daily life.

Cmon people we can appreciate the lady a bit more than the 0.8 donations she has received so far. Her Bitcoin address is 18ZLW62Tymy7H9AJXMCVGjZMf7AWTp6Ym4

My ultimate favorite Bitcoin song is this one though --> All About That Bitcoin - by Naomi van der Velde { https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEBWtbhq0Ts }

My BEST bitcoin website hosted by a lady, is this one ---> http://olga-star.com/
