Topic: Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling] - page 33. (Read 5929 times)

So because their religion or society doesn't permit women gambling does that mean they're from a backward place. Imagine a family of gamblers that both father and mother are gambling how do you expect that family to function properly, some laws are their to guide us.

While we think we're are adults and capable of making decisions for ourselves, most of us are still immature and if we live in a free society we'll be living a useless lifestyle. There's no difference between a family of drug addict and a family of gambling addicts.

Atleast the woman is supposed to be the responsible one and I'm not trying to take anything away from her but she should be taking care of the home and making sure her children are feed and responsible. When both parents are gambling addicts that's a very big problem.

this is very much highlighted in this modern era, liberal adherents believe that gender equality is real and must be fought for but in some countries and cultures it is often considered that liberalism is wrong, it returns to their respective regions and i am a little bit not so supportive liberal understanding, even though gender equality is good, women must have different duties and rights from men, it returns to their respective families how to take care of their children and must be able to tell what is not allowed and what is allowed to be done by girls or boys.

You mean land-based casinos, but what about online gambling? It is believed that approximately 25% of people around the globe gamble online. That's almost 2 billion. True, today statistically more man than women are engaged in gambling, but the difference isn't very significant, and we shouldn't forget that in some places, due to cultural issues, women are less prone to admit that they gamble during surveys.

 OP you're partially right because the number of females that's has interest in gambling is not very much compared to males, and in the 80's and 90's some society do not tolerate or allow their daughters to partake in the act of gambling, and anyone that doesn't out of stubbornness are considered bad, arrogant and disrespectful to their parents and that in return make suitors avoid them, some out of fear have to quit because they feel they've brought shame to the family.

 Also change they say is Constant and in the present time more women are beginning to pick interest in it due to some factors,
•Gender equality.
•Love of sports, they're gambling with friends on the team of athlete they support.
•Job opportunity in casinos
•Peer pressure from male friends.
•Rapid adaption of females in various sports activities, eg females soccer leagues and NBA teams.
 However you're right to say men have the upper hand when it comes to the world of gambling because majority of males are more exposed to sports, casinos activities whereas more females find it difficult to understand and read the game and would prefer other entertainment areas like movies, music which does not relate to or involve more of gambling.

Actually there's no gender specification in just playing gambling because anyone can play gambling anytime they want people seeing most likely the men playing gambling because they are more risk takers than the woman and we know how to become practical thinking by the woman and it if ideal to deal with or not because of way to risky than making another way to earn money. But at the end we cannot deny there are really skilled players including woman in this field so they conquer and beat their enemies with different strategies.

Gambling gender? Isn't that over? Gambling cats vs. dogs? But I understand that curious individuals need to research. I'm conflicted about gambling's "fun and earning" aspect. Yes, many see it as another way to make money, and that's fine. Let's not overlook the fun. Gamblers enjoy the adrenaline, unpredictability, and crazy! It's insanely exciting and maybe profitable. As long as you're not betting everything, it's fine!

There really isn't anything wrong with that. But if some traditions or cultures make women look embarrassed when playing gambling in their country, I don't think women will want to show it to the public either. They would prefer to gamble secretly, perhaps in their room or alone.

Well, this might just be a cultural thing because not all countries allow gambling in their country, and there might be an opinion that if a woman gambles, it will look shameful when it depends on the woman too. Indeed, gambling knows no gender where men and women are free to play gambling or choose to stay away from gambling. But we are talking about a culture still held by some people from certain countries.

You spoke really well, gender has never been a barrier in gambling for as far as I've known, so the debate as to which gender gambles the more is an unnecessary debate really, but then, it's understandable that the world we live in today are filled with many who are not so busy, so they take up any thing that comes to their mind as a research, so as to try to kill time.

And as to gambling just being about having fun and earning, I am afraid but not very many gamblers see gambling as such,  the majority of gamblers will tell you that if it was really about having fun, they know better ways to spend their money, most see gambling as another business to make money from, even though they don't say it publicly, it's what is buried in their hearts.

I never thought there would be such deep calculations behind the gambling based on genders. I’m not sure what’s the final outcome on this but it seems it’s unpredictable and there are just endless streams of logics to it. Gambling is something we play for fun and earn. I don’t think it is gonna be fruitful discussion ever. It’s not about the gender and who plays why. It’s all about we play it. Females are also proceeding to new heights when it comes playing anything that male used to do before. Whether it’s sports, whether it’s gambling there is no big difference these days. Everything is played equally. I think.

Yes, it's true that the difference is only in gender, there is no difference between the two on the gambling table, men and women have the same opportunity to win and play more, even though the male population in land casinos may be more than in women, but we don't know in casinos. online because I haven't found the statistics yet, who knows there are also quite a lot of female gamblers in online casinos.

Men and women in gambling have the same rights, they can gamble in peace without any difference in service, everything will be the same in the eyes of the casino as long as they have money, but if asked who is good at managing finances and is consistent, it is clear that women are much smarter than men from that female gamblers may play more consistently in terms of benefiting from winning at gambling.

I don't see anything wrong even if women go to land-based casinos to gamble alongside men, if their culture, their religion, and their country allow that, why not? Gambling knows no gender discrimination, whether you are a man or a woman, you can gamble, play any game that you like, bet on sports events, or do any sort of gambling that you deem fit for yourself and you think that you can play it with ease and have got the funds for it.

I personally don't think that women that gamble hide it from others because generally, the women who gamble are not from such backward-thinking places, and if a woman gambles who lives somewhere where it is not considered good, then it might be the reason for them to hide their gambling activities.

       -  In terms of playing gambling, Women and Men are equally lucky to lose and win when playing gambling. Apart from this, I don't see any difference between the two, maybe it's just their gender hehehe... But as far as I know there are other women who also bet heavily on gambling in the casino.

That's why the majority are actually men who play gambling, and from another angle, women are more self-disciplined compared to men when it comes to gambling.

What Gozie51 said is right, women don't have higher percentages of winning in gambling more than men, and the attribute being patience, organized or otherwise is not correct and not only women excise that characteristic both women and men all exhibit that feature it all depends on the individuals.
When talking about gambling winning and playing both women and men have almost equal experience since the casino does not require gender or consider gender advantages, and even at that men win and gamble more because men take higher risks compared to women and since the male forks take more risk the record more winning and also loses at the same time.

Everyone knows that luck is an important factor in gambling. So determining the winning ratio between male and female gamblers would be somewhat difficult. But all things considered, men will be ahead in gambling. A review of the history of gambling reveals that men have taken the leadership of gambling. But in recent times both men and women are attracted to gambling. Because women are also now financially prosperous so at present there is no discrimination between men and women.

I agree with all you have said except the part I quoted. I think you misunderstood what OP said. He didn't say that the gambler's gender can affect the results of a game or affect the odds. What he meant to say is that women can control their emotions and can stop playing when they need to unlike men. According to him, this gives women an advantage over men.
I don't agree what he said, BTW.

This type of Debate is always good, because many people believe that only men are the ones who pay the most attention to games, games of chance, sports betting, but women also feel and like these things, the rest is not bad, they also become experts in playing and you can learn from them, and that's something that I think is great. I wish all the best were as open when it comes to gambling and not discriminated against as something for addicts or other characterizations they give.

In today's world there are many things that are being stamped, among them is the taste for casinos, it does not matter if you are a man or a woman, the casino will always seek to entertain and as long as it is carried out in moderation. and with good deeds without falling into Addiction, you must Enjoy that Activity.

When I see that there are women in a casino I like it, because the truth is that when you see them play they are quite Concentrated , it is very difficult for them to get carried away by some Things , we men are more to let ourselves go , to get Away , of drinking Alcohol, that if we see something that catches our attention we see it and sometimes we lose concentration, maybe that's why it loses more, as long as a woman is like that, sometimes I feel that a woman has more Control over the money she Doesn't spend a lot.

There are women who are very disciplined , they can see you play big and they Measure their abilities, if they see that they can't sometimes they don't even play , They just see how they do it and they Learn.

And I agree wholeheartedly! How you react to the wins and losses of gambling has nothing to do with your gender. Everyone, regardless of sexual orientation, experiences the whole range of human feelings, including terror, joy, and dread.

To say that women are superior because they are more patient is a simplification. Depending on the time of day, everyone of us is a unique blend of serenity and mayhem. Emotional intelligence, self-control, and game knowledge are more important than gender while gambling.

Women have been dominating the gambling industry, which is a great step in the direction of gender parity. Let us not forget, however, that the odds of winning or losing in gambling are the same for all sexes. Everyone has an equal chance of success or failure, depending on their actions, strategies, and (sometimes) luck.

I don't know about that, but I think women may not show the public that they play gambling as well as men. Some people still think it is inappropriate to show to other people we don't know. But indeed, some women show others that they like to gamble. So this will depend on each other's thoughts, and we also cannot judge that what the women are doing is wrong. I also think it's better for women to gamble from their homes than to come to an offline casino to hide from the public that they also play gambling.

There is no difference between the two because it all depends on the conditions and situation that is happening. It should also be noted that a woman and a man have a high emotional level when they are in a difficult phase.

Greed is a natural attitude that everyone has, especially when in the gambling industry, so anyone can easily take the wrong action, be it a woman or a man.
So saying that women are more suitable in gambling because they have calmer thoughts is also not correct.

There are quite a number of women out there who have succeeded in becoming professional gamblers so that this is sufficient proof that gambling has indeed covered the whole of society regardless of age and gender.
For patience and control, actually it cannot be determined that women are the most able to have it, but it depends on the attitude of each individual.

But again, by that very same logic of yours, women also do not win as big as men. Just because of the fact that men are heavier risk takers and therefore reap higher wins. So as I see it, men are on both sides of the distribution curve when it comes to extremes. Either they lose big or they win big most of the time. Women on the other hand either lose little or win little.

As far as profitability goes, I would say that women have the advantage, since house edge makes both genders lose more than they win. And so the most profitable gamblers are the ones who have some money left over, at the end of the day, i.e. women.
