Even though these religions have prohibited gambling, men and women still gamble, and many are addicted to gambling.
If this is the case, it is contrary to the purpose of gambling, where gambling is only to have fun.
And all of that can be overcome if gamblers, men and women, have self-control and self-discipline so they will not use gambling to make money.
If we refer to the research, it may be true that women are more interested in percentage-odds-based games while men are more interested in skill-based games.
But for the real answer, we will never know because that means we have to research gambling in all countries, both those that prohibit and allow gambling.
In the current era religious regulations are no longer so emphasized by most people whether women or men even though everyone understands that the religion they adhere to also strictly prohibits gambling.
Apart from the main goal of having fun in gambling, they also have other goals such as wanting to get some luck to win because since the Covid pandemic until now the economy in every country is still considered weak or unstable many small businesses have experienced bankruptcy and several private employees have been expelled and it is difficult to get a job again.
In fact I don't agree with this reason and all the same there are many women who are looking for fun from games of skill and men who are looking for a percentage of opportunities so this cannot be said to be the right reason and proven logical.
Yes that true and doing research is not easy especially now that there are so many gamblers turning to online casinos and it makes it difficult to know the gender of each gambling account.
They know that gambling is prohibited in their religion but they still gamble and if that is the case, no one can forbid them from continuing to gamble but hopefully, they can take care of themselves while they are gambling.
And it is hoped that they can use gambling as entertainment so that they do not gamble excessively and become addicted to gambling.
But it is true that since Covid-19, many people cannot go anywhere and need entertainment. Online casinos saw this opportunity and carried out promotions to attract these people.
This strategy is considered successful because many people see gambling as entertainment when they can't go anywhere, so many of them start gambling and not only men but women also gamble, although still secretly.
Yes, we may disagree with the study's results, but that is what they got and if they repeated the study, the results might be different.
