I realize much of the thread is joking, but that doesn't justify this outrageous sexism.
Yes, women use Bitcoin. Yes, they are sufficiently tech-savvy to do it. If you look at this thread, you will find that over 7% of users on this forum are female. It is irresponsible to denounce almost 50% of the world population in this way.
If there's a reason that fewer women frequent these forums than men, it is because of the hostile environment. BitcoinTalk is not Saudi Arabia. We are not to stereotype any gender, profession, race, or location. What is Bitcoin about? Decentralization. Money in the hands of the people—all people.

Sorry, but I think you are greatly exaggerating.
It is no secret that men and women often have different interests. I've talked to women about Bitcoin and their reaction was highly sexist towards me if we would apply your criteria.
I think the environment in these forums is certainly not hostile towards women. Any woman which interests herself in Bitcoin would be warmly embraced by the community...

Are girls / women interested in Bitcoin ?
Your opinion ?
Your opinion ?
My girlfriend likes buying random cheap little impulse buys off the internet (etzy and wanelo). So I gave her two icarus chips after I sold the rest of mine on this forum. She initially didn't think too fondly of me giving her bitcoin mining equipment (as a no reason type gift) but I set up her wallet address and hooked them up into her old desktop (that is only being used as a LAN printing server). It already had an old 7770 of mine in there.
cgminer loads on boot and connects to bitminter on boot.
So now she can buy small things from bitmit or do a little online gambling for fun.
It still doesn't make up for all the time I spend on this forum though haha. At least I got her past the "This whole thing you're doing has to be illegal" stage
She's cool though, I love her. And she put up with a lot of heat and fans in the house quite awhile. Hopefully she'll mind the Klondike boards a lot less.

Women are integral parts of the Bitcoin ecosystem. Lindsay Holland is the assistant director of the Bitcoin Foundation. All top Bitcoin companies, including the former BitInstant, BFL, Mt. Gox, BitPay, etc., employ women. A woman owns the eminent Bitcoin stock exchange and options market, MPOE/MPEX. Bitcoin would not nearly be where it is now had not been for the tireless work and support of women. This fact must be respected, not dismissed. The stereotyping in this thread is simply unacceptable.

You think girls don't have an irony detector?
Boys have an irony detector, girls have an ironing detector.
I knew that would come.
Looks like you're a boy.

I remember a survey stating that only 3% of the bitcoin population are women. Why so low? I have no idea,
I do.
Boys mine coins, girls bake coins.

Most women aren't smart enough or tech savvy enough to be into bitcoin,
just ask yourself: do they need bitcoins in the kitchen?
Women don't need Bitcoins to stay at home all day, pregnant, doing laundry and cooking dinner.

Maybe we should ask some feminists
