I believe women are already involved in gambling activity since ancient times. One example is ancient Rome, women have a special day where they can participate in gambling since they are banned in gambling engagement during regular days.
This is not exactly the best example. Apparently, the ancient Romans only allowed one day a week for gambling because they thought women were less capable of it.
The point I want to make here is that there is nothing unique about the fact that women gamble. And as far as I have seen, gambling isn't simply an affliction of men. It is true that more men gamble than women, at least in the US. But when it comes to online betting, for example, the gap between male and female bettors seems to be narrowing substantially.
Actually, that is the best example, even in ancient times, women are into gambling. The Emperor won't put that day if he doesn't find women interested in gambling. And my reply isn't directed to your post but in the post that replies to your post the one stated by Vaskiy
. Since he stated that women of the past were not much into gambling.
This is common all around. In the past women weren't much into gambling. Now things have changed a lot. In my country we've got hundreds of sites to play online rummy. Recently one women ended her life after she have lost $10k which she had borrowed from friends and family. The important part, she got addicted and her husband have warned and they were separated out of gambling. Further out of loss and separation from family she ended her life. Through this I understood addicted Women were there in gambling.

Myth 10: Teens Don’t Gamble, Only Older People Gamble
>> Fact: Gambling is a bigger problem among teens than it is in adults.
This fact must be accompanied by more comprehensive research. I think every country will have a different level of problem with gambling be it teenagers or adults.
However, it is undeniable that bad behavior of teenagers such as drinking alcohol and smoking increases the prevalence of gambling among teenagers. This provides further evidence of the need for greater awareness of gambling behavior in early adolescence.
parents play an important role in guiding and providing sufficient knowledge about the dangers and impacts of gambling, especially online gambling.
It does not to be accompanied by more comprehensive research. Myth 10 is an absolute fallacy. I don't know, only an idiot thinks that only older people gamble. Kids gamble, they gamble with their cards, money, and toys. I can attest to that since I did gamble with my cards and toys when I was a kid.
