Maybe it's because it's related to making money to live, so women who play gambling are considered unsuitable, but many women out there also play gambling like men. Maybe if a man playing gambling can still be considered for marriage but not if it is a woman because of her nature, a woman has to look after her children, while a man has to provide for his family.

But in the modern era like today, where gambling sites are found on the internet, it opens up opportunities for women to try playing gambling, especially now that crypto is more popular and many gambling sites have applied crypto as a substitute for fiat.
Okay, it can also be related to the responsibility (not gambling) but being responsible for their children, also to his husband because it's the wife's role to prepare everything for his husband because his husband is busy working. In the modern era today, what is happening is the women are now the ones that work.

In a third world country, women usually go abroad to work for their family because the pay is not sufficient on their own country while the husband are left home to take care of their kids. Crypto makes online gambling more popular and easy to access. Husband or wife can now look for their kids while playing gambling at the same time. There must be an exemption for this.

I think this question should be analyzed as follows:

1 - What happens when a man becomes addicted to gambling? he starts selling everything he has, starts stealing and even killing to have money to support his gambling addiction

2 - What happens if a woman becomes addicted to gambling? she will start selling her body to support the gambling addiction, and this is the point that makes society afraid of women being in gambling.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with women being gambling, but as long as they moderate, men have rehab clinics to help them overcome addiction, they can cure it. but what about women? they can also go to a rehabilitation clinic and cure, but they won't cure the fact that they went to prostitution to support the addiction

Do you think woman only had her body to sell for gambling addiction,why the woman can’t get money by stealing or killing.Woman are equal to man now,but only few people with conservative thoughts.Only few woman using their body to ear money,but how you accused all the woman in common mate!! And woman can help their men from addiction and make them to play.

There seems to be a bias in the opinions of people regarding gender and gambling. Most persons in my locale consider gambling as something more appropriate for males than females, who made that a law?

-In my locale, a man who is considered a compulsive gambler may be overlooked if he is doing well regardless, but a for a woman, regardless of her financial state, will be perceived and considered highly irresponsible if she is found in a betting or gambling place.

-A man who is known to be a gambler may still be considered for marriage by a woman, but if a woman is known to be compulsive gambler before marriage, most men will run from them or not even get close enough to consider them for marriage.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?
I think that over time this situation may change in favor of women. That is, women players will no longer be prejudiced. There were times when women were not allowed to study at universities, wear trousers and the like. Look around, this is a thing of the past. The same is expected in the gambling section. There will come a time when a female player will no longer be perceived as something strange, but will be the norm.
How come we've come into a point that women arent allowed to play gambling? Yes, there might be some situations but not most of the time they are really that been underestimated or being judged just because
usually men are the ones who do play gambling.I cant really blame out men though since women should not really be involving into something like this but since we do have the freedom on spending our
money anywhere and anything we do like then so be it.Just let them be on how they would really be spending it since its not ours in the first place.

Traditional way of thinking. It's difficult to be undone, that's why women are fighting for their rights.
It's the gift of sight that fools us and the way women are treated way before we are even born.
I am optimistic that it's changing slowly just like how women are looked at now when they are drinking outside. We just don't care anymore or it is not displeasing to the eyes of the public in this era. I have a lot of women colleagues and I always invite them whenever we drink, it's fun to have different opinions from both gender and our LGBTQ+ friends.

This is the effect of women empowerment but some societies still have women not doing any of those , just to stay back home and not do anything or get education. In India and some other Asian countries, it is still like that. Women gambling is something new, gambling has been a field of men. Men are risk takers because they need to take care of the home, extended families etc.

Gambling has to do with risk and most of those who have the risk appetite are the male forks who constantly look out for available risks that can earn good returns, but women on the other hand are fewer risk-takers compared to males.
The funny thing about women is that they don't like to take risk as you suggested and same time they don't like to put their money were they are not sure of, that is why many of women don't like Gamble, what comes to their mind always is to have the physical cash instead of putting it were it brings another, the nature teach women on how not to invest

It's not about gender or opinion. In fact, men are dominant in the family (a father or son) to work but are not good financial managers for household needs. So, when a man gets a monthly allowance, they tend to spend it for their own pleasure. Gambling is just one of their pleasure goals.
You can't compare female gender together with male gender in terms of gambling, female don't have the time of gambling because they received support of financial empowerment mostly from male, so female out of hundred percent is only ten percent you see participating in gamble

What is this nonsense? You may have many such acquaintances, but it is insulting to transfer this to all men. For example, I have a family and first of all I spend money (and other) resources on it and only lastly for my own pleasure. And if I have some critical problems with money (thank God this has not happened yet), then I can easily refuse unnecessary expenses (for pleasures) than I will limit my family in some way.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?
it depends on the type of game, because there are some with a high rate of female or male presence.
At least in my country in Italy, scratch cards or the classic lotto and its variants have a strong presence of female players.
Conversely, in betting rooms where sportbets are placed it is practically impossible to meet a woman.
agree with what you are saying, that the number of women who like sports betting is very small, but for slots, card game or dice, the number is quite a lot and it has been proven. In my environment, there are almost no women who like sports betting, but there are many women who play slots and some are even young.

Well this is not really true tho, on the forum you will certainly find a lot of girls and when they say that it's just coming from year old racism and therefore you should not be so bothered about it as well. When you see such kind of people just ignore them since their thinking cannot be changed and the most you can do is avoid the racists.
Even most cultures and religions only talk about the gambling being the problem of the male population.

Testosterone does give you higher energy and also make you more likely to gamble on your emotions but at the same time female gamblers are more static and they are very agile with these things. Therefore are more likely to have profits along the way.

Reading your post I just realized that gambling "might" be restricted on women especially when they are gambling in physical casinos.
But there's nobody to judge them when they are doing it online. Only the people in their family will be there who might know that the lady is gambling.
So may be the growth of online casinos is not that bad after all since it is providing equal opportunity to male as well as females.
That's true nobody knows you are playing in online casinos it's much safer for women to play online and online casinos never discriminate we never read anywhere in the TOS that they only allow men, they just don't allow kids or underage to play, on physical casinos they may be discrimination but never in online casinos we have equality in online casinos, even if the player is located where they arestrict restrictions to women who are in gambling.

I think that rather than it being a gender bias, it seem more to be a biological issue. Gender bias is not the right word here, I think. Men are just wired to take risks and women are wired to keep out of risk's path. Survival of the species depended on those "biases". So it does not strike me odd that more men would take risks like gambling while women would rather not lose their money (life's blood).

Women are definitely in the advantage here.
along side - woman focuses on risks while man focuses on profit. Both have different ways of perceiving things. In our society woman are very careful in money matter because most of the people are middle class - they live pay cheque to pay cheque so they would not risk their little savings on gambling. Rather they will invest it somewhere to be on safe side.

It isn't anything new or weird, it's just the mindset that was naturally made over time in a community, in this case, yours. Ofc I strongly disagree with this, being a rare case does not mean that it does not conform with what is normal, since being normal in the first place is something very subjective. It's just a dumb perception that a person grew up with. I won't deny that it happens and that one shouldn't blame themselves for having such a realization but they should stray away from it as early as possible since bias is a very damaging thing to others. View the world with an open mind, it's going to help in the long term.

Yes it isn't new and though we do appreciate women empowerment but in area of gambling woman are still struggling to be easily accepted by the society as a normal activity for them. And that's unfair if we were going to think but the society couldn't still normalize this one but as I know women are brave and resilience and that they follow what they want and they think they can without being affected by the gender bias around them..

If you look at the demographics of video gamers, the majority is still male, even though the female group is growing. So female gamers are rare or unusual in the view of mainstream gamers. The phenomenon also happens in gambling, where male gamblers are deemed as usual/normal and female gamblers are unusual/abnormal. Yes, it's bias, but it's natural. Read about the relationship between testosterone level and gambling activity.

What's wrong with this "gender bias" is that they view female gamblers as bad people, while more permissive to male gamblers. It's like in sex where if a man bangs lots of chicks, he is "the man," while if a woman bangs lots of man, she is "a slut." There's no quick cure for this societal problem. What we can do is just treat them the same. If enough people doing that, the society will automatically change.

Accourding to a saying, what a man can do, a woman can even do it better than the man  Although societies and traditions are divers. There are some societies in the world that clearly stated the activities of a woman and a man. Most traditions  forbid a woman to climb palm trees while some do the accept it both.

All depend on the traditions, cultures, believes and the norms of the society.

In the ancient days, women were not permitted to gamble in the African Tradition. But in the contemporary world most of the believes  have died down.

Therefore, Gender biasness in gambling is still based on the traditions and the norms in the society. Because most societies women smoke more than even men.

So, as for me, gambling is for men because women are to look after the children while the man go out to strong and bring food to the house.

Commonly many men than women active on gambling platform site without have rule not allowed for women keep active and can participants on gambling world, I think women spent their spare time with shopping and enjoying discussing or make any gossip with their friend than take gambling world as spare time job. My country have different with women as influence on gambling promoting but funny although active for promoting gambling site they not active as player on gambling world, just advertising only not as player on gambling.

Also people have bad impression towards girls engage on gambling although little by little this is been accepted by community. Also not surprising if they are just promoting it because women is much careful about their money compare to men and they most provably use their money on things that satisfy them like what you said.

This is the past, now things have changed alot. From what's been said in the OP, if looks like he's in the rural part of the country. It isn't his country, but in most of the rular part of the country people have the same opinion. This is the reason why gamblers unlike the gender look for an anonymous gambling access.

Another thing, the human civilization and culture is created in such a way. Maybe this will change with the morden thoughts to which rural population need to get adopted. It won't happen in a short, it takes time for gradual change.

You have to realize that gambling is a business and they are only after the money and nothing more. So, if it is only men that are gambling in casinos, then people would focus on that to make more money. If you have 98% men in your casino and 2%, would you do equal ads or whatever? No, you would put in some semi-naked chicks to attract men more and more, that is how you make money.

Because at the end of the day, if it meant that 98% was women, they would put men with no shirts on and with abs, they do not care about what they do, they only care about who they are doing it to and how much money it would mean back to them and that is the profitable version for them.

Unfortunately the gender bias is not going to change even with 98% women. Bare naked men do not convince girls to gamble more,,, I think you have to get into the psychology of things. Make it cool make it trendy make it desirable,,, this is what makes women buy.

I know men supposedly work all the same way but for me and I bet you a lot of others who gamble sports, we want to see sportspeople advertising and promoting not chicks who are not even into sports.

Gambling is not legal in many culture and countries - having a label of gambler is serious taboo in our society. It is not much appreciated and admired in our law, culture and society. Anyone found gambling will be in trouble, hence be it male or female, in our society the gambler would face a serious trouble.

Yes, gambling has been outlawed in a number of countries. Well, I believe that this is more prevalent in religious countries because they do not permit it for the majority of women, but have you read the thread that is celebrating Women's Day and is saluting those women gamblers? I believe that there are a significant number of women who still participate in gambling. As a woman, I believe that seeing a woman gamble is no longer shocking, whereas it was previously. It was liberating to see, but in the twenty-first century, almost everyone is aware of it and has nothing to say about it.

There seems to be a bias in the opinions of people regarding gender and gambling. Most persons in my locale consider gambling as something more appropriate for males than females, who made that a law?

Will it be possible if you could share which country you are staying? That is very unfortunate to hear that such bias still exists in the 20th century given that lots of women fought for their rights and equality on their respective countries.

Quote
-In my locale, a man who is considered a compulsive gambler may be overlooked if he is doing well regardless, but a for a woman, regardless of her financial state, will be perceived and considered highly irresponsible if she is found in a betting or gambling place.

This is just straight up sexist. Again, in the 20th century, the society has recognized and understood that women and men are definitely equal. In fact, almost all of the jobs that were once viewed that only males can do, also females now can do. Even in gambling, in fact, there was a thread before stating that women can handle their emotions well on gambling.

Quote
Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?

Gambling should be available for everyone irrespective of one's gender. The fact that there are countries that has an unequal view between men and women is just really unfortunate. I hope they recognize that such bias cannot exist as there is practically no difference between the two genders.

Yeah sports betting is definitely something that is uncontrollably for men, and of course there are females that bet on sports but very few, from where I look at it, if I find a woman betting on sports I won't look down at her at all, the opposite of that I would be impressed and curious on how she started, and it's something we have in common how on earth I would consider it a bad thing.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?
the social law that makes all of that has a difference. Gambling is not just a game for men, it is a game between genders and women at any age can freely do it

but the social law applied by each country is different. if in my country, women who play gambling are those who are very dirty, and it continues to stick in people's minds so that almost no women in my area play gambling
There would be always that kind of criticism when it comes to gender since we dont usually see women who would hang out with these places and on the time that people do see it then this is the time
they would really be having bad impressions on what they are doing neither they would approach it out or would simply look badly unto her which i do see unjustifiable or totally unfair.
Its true that gambling doesnt have gender that it do requires and as long you do have the money to spent or make use of then its none of others business on what you would gonna do.

Strongly disagreed on this.Why should boys have this all fun.God created this land for the people,not for the male or female.Some male dominated society still think,all are belong to them.I am Man with broad mind.Not all the people think like us,we should be positive person.Because the gambling need of positive minded person.Only positive minded will earn good money from gambling.

The pleasure of gambling should be for everyone, not just for men. So women should not get a negative stigma when gambling. But indeed this
has happened a long time ago and may be very difficult to remove it from society, so as a woman, they have to accept it. Fortunately,
technological developments are very rapid and eventually make many online casinos appear. Finally, this is a solution for women who want to
play gambling, but still want to maintain their privacy. Because gambling at online casinos we don't need to give up our identity, at online casinos
we can play anonymously.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?
the social law that makes all of that has a difference. Gambling is not just a game for men, it is a game between genders and women at any age can freely do it

but the social law applied by each country is different. if in my country, women who play gambling are those who are very dirty, and it continues to stick in people's minds so that almost no women in my area play gambling

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?

it depends on the type of game, because there are some with a high rate of female or male presence.
At least in my country in Italy, scratch cards or the classic lotto and its variants have a strong presence of female players.
Conversely, in betting rooms where sportbets are placed it is practically impossible to meet a woman.

You have to realize that gambling is a business and they are only after the money and nothing more. So, if it is only men that are gambling in casinos, then people would focus on that to make more money. If you have 98% men in your casino and 2%, would you do equal ads or whatever? No, you would put in some semi-naked chicks to attract men more and more, that is how you make money.

Because at the end of the day, if it meant that 98% was women, they would put men with no shirts on and with abs, they do not care about what they do, they only care about who they are doing it to and how much money it would mean back to them and that is the profitable version for them.

There seems to be a bias in the opinions of people regarding gender and gambling. Most persons in my locale consider gambling as something more appropriate for males than females, who made that a law?

-In my locale, a man who is considered a compulsive gambler may be overlooked if he is doing well regardless, but a for a woman, regardless of her financial state, will be perceived and considered highly irresponsible if she is found in a betting or gambling place.

-A man who is known to be a gambler may still be considered for marriage by a woman, but if a woman is known to be compulsive gambler before marriage, most men will run from them or not even get close enough to consider them for marriage.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?


I think that rather than it being a gender bias, it seem more to be a biological issue. Gender bias is not the right word here, I think. Men are just wired to take risks and women are wired to keep out of risk's path. Survival of the species depended on those "biases". So it does not strike me odd that more men would take risks like gambling while women would rather not lose their money (life's blood).

Women are definitely in the advantage here.

Gender bias has been existing ever since the age of time. It's not only in gambling that there's gender bias and there's women degrading with anything that they're involved with.
It's still there but for some countries and places, there's already the equality for both males and females. That's why those places that have been open with it are no longer experiencing this bias. But the sad truth is that there are still a lot of countries that do think of what you've stated OP.
It can't be gone too quick especially if the people there have been stick to that tradition and belief that females that do gamble shall be avoided and they have a different view on them.

Because in most countries, females are preferred to be stay-at-home moms.
They are expected to do household chores and take care of the kids.
So if they see that the woman is in casinos or any gambling establishments, they are assuming that she can't hold those responsibilities.
But using online casinos, there will be no gender bias here, that's one benefit of online.
They won't ask you if you are female or not, you can play just like others, and no one knows you're playing unless, you will disclose it to your friends or colleagues.
Yes, that's the tradition that will always be there even though in the modern world today, we men are just equal with women these days. Whatever we do, they can do it also.
What you've said is true about not knowing about the gender in online casinos, unless they start asking for information about you and ask for KYC then that will be the time that the casino will start to know the gender of their customer. But, there's no bias on it as they see everyone as customers.

The long-standing tradition that women should stay at home and take care of household chores should be removed. It is indeed difficult to eliminate
this tradition, but slowly now it is starting to fade after women are given the same rights as men. I am one of those people who uphold equality
between men and women, so talking about gambling, which is mostly done by men, but if women want to gamble it should be fine. But sometimes
because of the ancient traditions that still exist today, makes women not as free as men if they want to gamble. If society see a woman gambling,
it will definitely cause a negative stigma, even though that shouldn't have happened. As long as the woman does not harm anyone when gambling,
she has the right to gamble whenever she wants. Now with so many gambling sites making women all over the world happy, they can gamble without
being viewed negatively by society.

I can't give a much detailed statement from my point of view since that's not what happening in our place.

Why gambling is treated like that there? Why is the question just asked now? Are you new on your local or been there since birth? You are the one who can understand most why gambling is being treated like that.

Maybe the community there has a reason why gambling should be off-limits to women and females there.

Unfortunately this is normal all around the world. People see women as stable protectors of home and bearer of children, which is why people often criticize women for things men do on daily basis. As an example I'll give you a man who often changes women and every week goes out with someone else is seen as someone popular, who knows how to pick up girls, a hustler. A woman doing the same thing will be called a slut. People will speculate that she's probably getting paid for it and so on. That's why a woman gambler will always be criticized more than a man.

I'm not aware about this issue in my area, because as far as I know every gamblers are treated in the same way, doesn't matter their gender. I know respectful ladies who are casual gamblers and nobody overlook them for this reason. Quite the opposite, people in gambling industry are even more attentive and kind to these gamblers ladies.

To say the truth, what really matters in society is if people have money to spend. When they have, they are respected, when they don't have they are put in second plan.
This is one valid point - you live in the society where people welcome other choices and decision. In out society this is not much appreciated. Gambling is forbidden in our region and culture. So if bride or groom are labelled as gambler. That's a big stain on their personality and family. Mostly those who gamble in our society do it secretly.

Personally this is not something that I have seen, back then when I used to play at regular casinos most of the gamblers were men, but this does not necessarily mean that there were more men that gambled as I realized that many women gambled and preferred games that were not offered at the casinos, now I have seen some people reject romantic propositions because the other party was a gambler, but it had nothing to do with their gender and more with their moral principles, so it would be interesting to know where you have seeing something like this because in my personal experience I have never seen it.

Every places or country we'll find these odd practices and the saddest part is it's in their culture so we can't do anything about it unless of course if you find some people who would like to change that practices. Although, it will take some time though if you want something to change since it will also start with yourself.

Just like gambling addiction, if you want to change and stop being a compulsive gambler it should start within yourself. I agree most of the replies above you shouldn't care what the society would tell and just open your mind that not every places are the same.

No, because in general, women are already gambling their life's future when they choose a man to be with.  But seriously, if some countries prohibit gambling it is applied to both genders so I couldn't see any sense that gambling should be only for Men if it is allowed by the institution.  But sadly, some places' cultures are more favorable to men than women.

Women appreciates this kind of statement I believe because after all, its a positive trait. But that doesn't mean there is no gamblers on their side. We have seen there are famous poker players on tournaments that are girls. It only means, gender doesn't care when it comes to activities that men does. The world is changing, there are even women who works construction sites.

No woman will appreciate or be happy if there are high percentage of women that is into gambling women are great role models and they have a mother nature that wants their children to be better so I don't think they will appreciate it if many women are into gambling, but that does not mean to say that they cannot gamble, they can as long as they are a responsible gambler and they know their limitation because they do not want to be a bad example to their children.

Since that was the situation on your local, you can't take that situation generally here because I believe, most people here don't have the same situation. Since that was the setup and beliefs on your local, you should be able to answer that on yourself.

We don't know if there's a thing that "influences" gambling there, in general, that's why it ends up to the point that gambling should only be associated mostly with males there. Look internally why things turned that way on your location.

There might be a point that you do not see yet.

That may or may not be true but I can say how it goes in my country. Most of the females in my country are the ones who run the household.
So basically they are in charge of the house budget which the males give them to run the house for that month.
So if females have a habit of gambling then that might be a risk since it might occur that they may end up using the money to run the house for gambling.
So that's a risk nobody would wanna take and hence they frown upon females who gamble.

This depend on the culture of your country since there are certain races point that girls who are participating on gambling activities are immoral. But since we are now living on modern age for sure we will see equality towards this discussions as I already see some girls or member of 3rd sex keeps participating and competing with straight guys on gambling platforms.

I would expect the majority of gamblers to be male. That's because men are more willingly to bet their money away for big possible payout in the future. Woman are the better financial planers and more cautious investors, I would expect them to gamble less.
Normally the majority of gamblers are males, like in my community and my country as a whole, it is hard to see girls in view centers watching football matches, hardly you will notice anything like that, but men see it as fun and visit during big leagues like English Premier League and UEFA Champions League. This alone shows us the reason women are not gambling. Women prefer means they can gather money together with little risks like business. Even OP was funny to me because women can decide to just go online if the men in their community see gambling as taboo for women, but I am still think that information is not accurate.

No one makes laws about who is more suitable for gambling but indeed, in some countries, if a woman gambles, it is considered an embarrassment to her family. Maybe this is related to the local culture or culture that will judge a person's actions in acting. So it is not surprising that the surrounding environment will give a bad judgment to a woman who plays gambling. At the same time, it will not result in anything for men who play gambling.

Maybe that will be why if a woman wants to play gambling, she will do it secretly. They don't want to get into trouble so they don't show it to anyone else.

That is very right - men are considered superior than woman. I am not sure if it happens in all culture or it is the specific religion you have mentioned. But male supremisy  is a global issue. Women faces so many issues, gambling is a kind of different hobby not much liked and admired by many religions.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?

It is sad in the modern era like now to limit the activities carried out by women. I think every human being should be given the same right to do
anything, because of that gender equality must be fought for. I hope everyone can be open minded that gambling is for anyone who is an adult,
because gambling is not only for men. Because in my opinion as long as the woman does not forget her duties as a wife if she is married,
it is okay to gamble as entertainment. Luckily, there are now many online gambling sites that can play gambling without the need to do KYC
procedures, so women can gamble anonymously without needing to be identified. So this can be a temporary solution in a country that does not
think that women deserve to play gambling.

What do you care about the opinions of strangers? Gender stereotypes exist (and often have a very logical basis) but if the laws in your country are not discriminatory and everyone has equal rights, then you should not care about other people's opinions. The easiest way to stop suffering from stereotypes is to stop paying attention to them.
Exactly, we cannot please everyone but of course women have to fight for equality and for their rights so if they feel mistreated they can always file a case. In gambling, anyone can go as long as you have the money no matter what your gender is, if the laws and religions allows you to gamble then there should be no discrimination here. Just ignore those who throw hate at you and just enjoy gambling.

You can’t please everyone, so I decided to please only myself  Grin This is the most efficient approach and solves most of the problems.

I think there is no law that is trying to discriminate women against men, all have equal rights and opportunities. However, when it comes to gambling, its mostly dominated by men not because they have more luck, but maybe because men are more risk takers and less impulsive than women. And they are more socially anxious than women. Other than that, i don't see valid reasons why women should not engage theirselves in gambling. If they can stand on what they believe and become independent, gambling may still be a good avenue for them.

The predominance of the share of men in gambling is easily explained by biology. They have more testosterone and other hormones that increase aggressiveness, desire to win, risk taking, etc. I read a study where gambling was compared to hunting (in terms of the physiological effects that appear in the human brain) and there were a lot of similarities. Among other things, there was an explanation of gambling addiction by the fact that during the hunt, when the prey is already very close, the brain mobilizes all the forces for the "last push". And this is very similar to how a gambler is trying to win back with all his strength and money, because the casino always creates the illusion that the win is very close.

Gambling could be for everyone regardless of their gender but we couldn't control the judgment of people around us. Since we couldn't please everyone, it would be better to ignore the comments of other people regarding women who enjoy gambling.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?

Gambling should always be gender neutral in my opinion. There is no real argument that wouldn't allow woman to gamble. In the past it may be seen like that, but back then it was a cultural thing. Woman were expected to stay home and look after the kids, while men go out, drink, smoke and gamble. Life has changed a lot since then. In todays society it's all about equality and gambling is not the exception. I would expect the majority of gamblers to be male. That's because men are more willingly to bet their money away for big possible payout in the future. Woman are the better financial planers and more cautious investors, I would expect them to gamble less.

I doubt this, which country are you? Only what I know are the Muslims and some other religions that do not support gambling, but they do not support it for both men and women.

I don't know what country you live in, but this attitude towards women is an echo of inequality between men and women and is essentially an infringement of their rights and freedoms.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?
Actually its not only in gambling but in other things as well. For example, if a man cheated on his wife, people think its quite normal because he is just a man. But if a wife cheated on his husband, the judgment is different. Many people think men are superior to women and there are things men can do which women cannot.

Same goes for gambling, majority of gamblers are men. The thought that women are supposed to do a household chores, taking care of the kids and doing a girly thing are their image as a woman. Thus seeing them do gamble is still not accepted in the eyes of society although we all have the right regardless of the gender. There's no law prohibiting women to gamble, its just that, its not what people used to see.

In all aspects, not just gambling. There are several women who overcome this issue in society. They need to be assertive on what they want to do but mostly these women will be treated equally when they show they have the wealth. Money makes people equal, you may disagree about it but when a slave suddenly becomes rich, people will start respecting her/him.

Once a woman can stand on her own. not dependent on a husband. She'll be treated equally, though she'll still be judged in the eyes by the people, she'll talk back once insulted which is what she needs to do.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?
Actually its not only in gambling but in other things as well. For example, if a man cheated on his wife, people think its quite normal because he is just a man. But if a wife cheated on his husband, the judgment is different. Many people think men are superior to women and there are things men can do which women cannot.

Same goes for gambling, majority of gamblers are men. The thought that women are supposed to do a household chores, taking care of the kids and doing a girly thing are their image as a woman. Thus seeing them do gamble is still not accepted in the eyes of society although we all have the right regardless of the gender. There's no law prohibiting women to gamble, its just that, its not what people used to see.

No, of course, not. Gambling is for everybody who can afford. This bias doesn't have any basis at all. This is nothing but a remnant of the patriarchal society that we've had before. Cultures have not yet completely advanced to the point that inequality based on gender is not anymore existent. Gender equality has been fought for and has in fact gained a lot but it hasn't yet been fully accomplished. Women nowadays can already earn, study, vote, and so on, but the patriarchal mindset is yet to be fully eradicated.

It has something to do with the deep rooted association of men to power and money, and to women as housemakers.
For long, men are always thought to be as superior and more intelligent, thus are more capable of handling financial decisions for the family. As time went by, and as gender roles became somewhat irrelevant, people still see men as more capable of gambling because for the longest time, they have been doing it and it seems rather normal, compared to when women do it. But yeah, from where I'm at people are amazed whenever a girl gambler kills it and make a fortune with it.

what more can i say, it is in our history. so there's no doubt about this notion of women being in the gambling industry. i guess, this is still true especially for traditional casinos. but now, things are changing especially for online gambling. because no one knows the gender of the player. unless, the casino requires kyc from the player. but while playing, players don't know each other as well as their gender. so i guess, via online, everyone is equal. no discrimination whatsoever.

Bad perceptions about women into gambling is not new, a lot of people are still discriminating other women for their activities as if they control them. Women should not focus on that negative things and just do what they want, gamble as much as they want as long as its their money people should not argue about that. We should accept that every women right now, deserve the same treat that men gets this is just gambling though and should not take it personally.

There seems to be a bias in the opinions of people regarding gender and gambling. Most persons in my locale consider gambling as something more appropriate for males than females, who made that law?

-In my locale, a man who is considered a compulsive gambler may be overlooked if he is doing well regardless, but a woman, regardless of her financial state, will be perceived and considered highly irresponsible if she is found in a betting or gambling place.

-A man who is known to be a gambler may still be considered for marriage by a woman, but if a woman is known to be a compulsive gambler before marriage, most men will run from them or not even get close enough to consider them for marriage.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?
Just like any other high-risk adventure you are always inclined to the fact that gambling is peculiar to the. male forks more than the female forks, there are similar adventures that are referred to as men's ventures such as trading. fhat is also seen as best sorted for men.

In many countries, I don't want to mention religion and tradition, men are above and they are treated as superior to women because that's what tradition and what they follow in their religion we should respect that, women are the homemakers they are the educator of children so they expect women to have a good behavior this has been the case in many countries since time immemorial, here in our country women can gamble but we do not expect them to be heavy gamblers like men.

There's no law regarding that, it's just that men are more risk-takers than women so most of the gamblers are men. Women also are so emotional that some of them could not handle the stress, so gambling is not really a game for most women as it would only ruin their life in the long run.

Knowing the risk and managing it are very important, if a gambler can only do one, that would not work.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?

That was been a stereotype for years and it is an issue that should be taken care of not only by your local government but those women around you that should make a noise and stand against that stereotype. But that wasn't only an issue in your country, that happens to most countries with female gamblers that are not being commonly seen in gambling places. Why the bias you ask? Well, with gambling places bombarded with old people that lives for decades and has the kind of old idea that 'a woman should be a housewife', then it isn't really common for them to see a woman gamble their money and play amongst men. Such ideology really sucks especially when women in such places are bullied because of their gender. It is just the matter of time until such oldies accepts the fact that gambling chooses no gender, just winners and daredevil players.
Dont know if we would really be reaching out that point because this isnt only limited to gambling industry alone but also in other things as well on where men do really be having
that kind of believe and impression that women should be staying up on the house and take care of children or making out some groceries.I dont know on why we do really have
that kind of mindset on which most of us does really believe but in overall or generally speaking that these activities doesnt really limit out for men.It is just we do put up into
our minds that men are the ones who do mainly play thats why seeing women will really be odd.

Gender bias has been existing ever since the age of time. It's not only in gambling that there's gender bias and there's women degrading with anything that they're involved with.
It's still there but for some countries and places, there's already the equality for both males and females. That's why those places that have been open with it are no longer experiencing this bias. But the sad truth is that there are still a lot of countries that do think of what you've stated OP.
It can't be gone too quick especially if the people there have been stick to that tradition and belief that females that do gamble shall be avoided and they have a different view on them.

Because in most countries, females are preferred to be stay-at-home moms.
They are expected to do household chores and take care of the kids.
So if they see that the woman is in casinos or any gambling establishments, they are assuming that she can't hold those responsibilities.
But using online casinos, there will be no gender bias here, that's one benefit of online.
They won't ask you if you are female or not, you can play just like others, and no one knows you're playing unless, you will disclose it to your friends or colleagues.

This is a question that each individual has a different answer for, I personally support feminism (gender equality) but in some aspects of life, women still have boundaries that cannot be the same as men. in my country, women who gamble are considered naughty and unsuitable as wives, and social law is the reason why in my country the number of women who gamble is very few compared to other countries.

Women are brought up that way for thousands of years the society expects them to be modest in the old-time women are confined to homes and nurture the children we cannot take out that tradition easily there are still societies that practice it, where women should be at the mercy of their husband, only in a democratic society where women are given important roles and treated as equal, your country happens to be living in an old tradition

In my place we treated women the right way, we are living on a good equality and if you bully or discriminate women, for sure they will fight back. In gambling, we always look back to every gamblers no matter what their gender is because in my country many believes the money that you get from gambling is from the evil, so this is not new anymore and for sure it will last since gambling is really not a good activities for many people.

Not only applies in gambling but it also applies to other vices like drugs, alcoholism society tends to look at women in high regard because of religion and social upbringing they expect women to behave and be responsible because they are the homemaker that they are responsible for creating a good household and also it has something to do with machismo associated on men, but we are in a new society that what men can do women can do also but we just cannot take down the perception and expectation.

There are still many places who look down to women and seriously, this is not just on gambling but on many things. Women are different now its just that some countries are still living on an old era where women are not appreciated. If you’re women and living on that old town, better to leave and go for a places where you are important. This is gambling though, and it should be available to anyone who are qualified to gamble. Starts from yourself, never bully or discriminate anyone.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?

Gambling is for anyone who loves to do it! Of course, stereotypes exist and will always exist, besides there are some states (regions) that have "some strange laws sort of speaking", and it seems that we will not be able to get rid of these things in the near future... that's how it is!
I think each of us chooses to support something or not, systems are made from that! Unfortunately in some systems the situation is, to put it mildly, desperate! I'm a pretty open person and I don't mind women gambling, what's more, it's nice to see a beautiful girl kicking asses in some gambling game! But there are prejudices and even worse laws against women who gamble in some parts of the world, even though we are in the 21st century.
So what can we do?! We can't change countries and religions! What we can do is to be open-minded and to try not to point fingers at others for some stupid reasons! People should be free to do what they like to do if they don't hurt anyone, so we can hope that the world will be a better place for all in the future, cause now it's not for sure!

What do you care about the opinions of strangers? Gender stereotypes exist (and often have a very logical basis) but if the laws in your country are not discriminatory and everyone has equal rights, then you should not care about other people's opinions. The easiest way to stop suffering from stereotypes is to stop paying attention to them.
Exactly, we cannot please everyone but of course women have to fight for equality and for their rights so if they feel mistreated they can always file a case. In gambling, anyone can go as long as you have the money no matter what your gender is, if the laws and religions allows you to gamble then there should be no discrimination here. Just ignore those who throw hate at you and just enjoy gambling.

Why the bias? should gambling be only for Men?
^ I don't call it bias because gambling is really for men not for women.
Women should on a financial state as you have said, once you are married, women are those who control the financial budget.
Basically, I don't know about this because I don't encounter a woman who frequently gambles and I think it is also about their dignity not to gamble or it should be gambling are not suitable to them, they should do a women's habit, not just a men's habit.

Maybe in the perspective of gambling is more suitable for men than women so it looks less appropriate, and another reason if addiction will have a negative impact on the family as a whole especially in the financial sector.
because most women after marriage do not work and will fully receive money from their partner to manage it properly so they worry about it will be spent on gambling.
and I also if I have a partner who likes to gamble, I will not let that happen and will try to eliminate it for the sake of my family later.

just like what KTChampions said "gender stereotypes".

it should not and should never be. I am not sure where you are from but in my area seeing a woman gambling is normal. we are living in the 21st century where men and women can be whatever they want. anyway, regarding the marriage part. I don't care if you are a man or a woman but if you are a compulsive gambler, you are not fit for marriage.

As for personal opinion and views then there's always that gender inequality on particular things on which men should only be the ones who would really be engaging on such thing.
Yes, there's no law but discrimination would really be there once women would touched up this area but since everything is free for your to engage on then no one can actually stop
you if you are a woman who do like to gamble.No matter what other people around you would see you but its not their business since its still your money to be spent not theirs.

in responding to things like this it's only because of the region/country you live in, because if we look at it from the point of view of gambling and especially for countries where the majority of Muslims are probably still very worthy of being seen as taboo and even embarrassing.
but if you look at it or compare it from a country that adheres to a liberal system, this is considered a wetland and even gambling facilities can be used as a source of income for countries that legalize gambling, in simple terms the lottery is considered a snack that can indeed be done by all circles, including WOMEN and even children. children to adults.
what's more, nowadays with the sophistication of technology, it can facilitate gambling very openly from several sites to maintain privacy.

Scary to be a woman in your country, it seems that I understand maybe the rules have existed from time immemorial by the ancestors in your country, even already implemented by the government. Honestly I don't know where it is but it seems the rule can't be ignored, but for now women can gamble without other people knowing, especially in the crypto industry, they can choose gambling sites that can be accessed anonymously which also can using a mobile phone.
