Everyone is free to give his own interpretation on women interaction with gambling but what we will all arrived at is that we cannot compare the rate of women participation to that of men in gambling, maybe we can give some reasons like how women were believed to be weaker vessels unlike men in most cases, their dedication and commitments to the house and the family especially in taking care of the children at home, lastly maybe our women may not have that boldness of taking risk associated to gambling because some depends on their earnings to take care of the family.

Women gamble less than men because women love money more than men and don't like to waste money. But nowadays women have also progressed a lot and women are working extensively as an alternative to men, so women are gradually getting involved in gambling as well too. But while women have gambled less than men so far, it doesn't seem like such a difference will exist in the future days

Things have changed so much, now women like taking risks with money, I am not sure about gambling but I am pretty sure about investment, the world is getting tougher every year and women have no choice but to start going the extra path of getting money like their men, I have two female friends, one is a hardcore crypto investor, believe me when I said "hardcore", she can be considered a crypto investment expert who takes risks that some men aren't even ready to take, my other female friend still feel hesitant with crypto investment but she likes other investments like land better.

I would love to know if you have ever seen an addicted female gambler before, i can't imagine a female getting addicted to gambling, I have never seen one but if there is it will be extremely bad.

The article is saying the truth,both men and women are involved in gamble and as long as it is gambling risk is part of it. It is noticed that men are more into gambling that women because men are more skillful in games than women.

In my area,when I go to an offline casino with my friends,if there are gamblers everywhere, you will only see few women among us due to the fact that women think less on gambling activities. Women are after how to look beautiful and looking good as their hobby. All these distracts them away from gambling.

I would say if we are talking about percentage then the men are more in gambling but some womens also have those skills you are talking about and won't say men are better but they gamble more and have some kind of playing experience with mix of strategies but most of the times luck needs to be in your favour regardless of which gender you belong to as that will help you to win the bet.

And it seems to me that it is much more interesting to watch women who gamble from the sidelines and watch how two passions are constantly fighting in a woman.
One is, of course, the desire to win.
And the second is, of course, the desire to look beautiful and interesting in the eyes of the men around them.
And when such a woman loses, for example, I feel much more sorry for her than any man who also loses in approximately the same game situation. But all this of course applies to playing in a physical casino. In an online casino, of course, these processes also exist, but they are quite hidden and it is impossible to observe the process of a woman's game in the same way as it can be done in a physical casino.

People will choose the strategy based on which one they are comfortable with. Different people will have different point of views. Some may rely on skill and some may rely on calculating odds. This is people in general, and not amongst two different genders. Man does this thing too.
But when you look at psychological facts, this kind of makes sense. Men are hunters, and we like to leave a presence that we were there. Even if we lose, we never back down. Meanwhile, women like to stay in the shadow. Maybe that's the reason why they often choose slot machine like games.
But as in men, we think in both ways, women also thinks like that. Because it is a process where the outcome will be the same. Win or lose. So having different strategy on point of view doesn't really matter. At least that is what I think.

Yes, the odds already point to the men as to having the higher percentages of participation in gambling and other risk-related activities, and this has been the norm with such activities because women tend to look away from what seems high risk and unrealistic.

But in the current dispensation, women are beginning to build awareness and adapt to the way things are done with high-risk ventures, but also one of the reasons why there seems to be woman pushback in gambling is because of societal discrimination against women who gamble.

You are quoting a research i didn't find by google, nor your link was pointing into any actual academic research.
I tried to search Psychology today but their search isn't that great either. So it's really hard to review any research without reading the actual research, or even an article about it.

And using google translate when you want accurate grammar make the page a very vague source.

women are naturally shy and fearful, they are very afraid of public censure and therefore they prefer not to lose in public.

It's not even about losing in public. Shy and being fearful are on emotions and that's what most women are as I have said in my previous comment. Playing skill-based games while being emotional will end up in a disaster 90% of the time so they would rather do slots and other games based on luck where they don't need to be logical.

I guess the article has completely favoured the men with respect to the women. I haven’t seen or come across in such a situation done by the women, as mentioned in the OP. Regarding the slots games, then the women choose it, because they find it easier to win, or they connect more properly with the rules of games. This doesn’t mean the women only runs after the odds. At last a man or woman only gambles, when he/she needs to earn some extra money. So if we gender discriminate here also, then it will be completely unfair for the women.

I believe stating facts shouldn't be considered gender discrimination because what is true is true and we can always say it without anyone having to take it in an offensive way. I think the reason why the number of male gamblers is higher than females is because men tend to spend more money on things like these where there is more risk than rewards while women tend to spend money on things from which they can get something back for sure.

And if we talk about the women who gamble which games they mostly prefer, slot machines are chosen mostly by women because they are pretty easy to play and there is no hassle at all and they also give good multipliers sometimes despite the fact that they have a higher house edge but women usually don't see that, and they also like the gameplay, I believe.

I also think that gender has nothing to do with it , I have always seen that some of the people who play the most are men and there are very few Women , but I think that there are some women who want to play but are ashamed that they look at casinos, because people will always think that if they are in a casino they are people who are addicted and Women always take care of that type of comment, so the ideal solution for them is online casinos, that's why everything is There is always a large presence of women in casinos, the only thing is that these statistics are difficult to obtain , only that the casinos can Provide them.

I'd say that responsible women don't gamble a reason why we often just see men on the casinos while women are left home or working hard. And some reason is that they are not suitable in this place as people/gamblers will look down on them. So whether the casino welcomes them but it is somewhat not looking good seeing women on the table gambling, unless they are just watching or with someone who gambles.
I think women should have to consider not getting involved in gambling, and letting their husbands or partner do that instead.

You're absolutely right, it's not common seing women gambling like men do because they already have enough responsibilities to take care of at home being the mother, asise that, a good wife would not want to have the same things her hisba does for a living as her preferences as well because two cannot be wrong at the same time, responsible men also gambles but the two parents cannot both gamble together at the same time becau the family will suffer the consequences together with their children.

Though women may like playing games going out on picnics but not to the extent of gambling because most of them rely on their husbands for a living daily expenses, gambling is not what women were totally forbidden to take part but in doing but only few have developed interest in it and have chosen gambling over any other forms of having fun.

Stereotypically, gender is also cited as one of the reasons why people like to gamble. One of the research findings shows that women tend to prefer percentage-odds-based games and men tend to prefer skill-based games.
~

Great article!
And I can confirm all of the above. I love the theory that all modern behavioral types of people originate from the cave period, and it turns out that men prefer games where they need to use their skills, because the price of a man is naturally determined by the presence of his skills. If you have many perfect skills, if you are successful, it means that you are self-realized. And women do not have this, women are naturally shy and fearful, they are very afraid of public censure and therefore they prefer not to lose in public. Therefore, I consider what the author of the topic described to be similar to the truth.

I believe that, like many things in life, this too is difficult to simplify.

A lot of women bet on games that men don't play (or play in a large minority).
try to enter any bingo room or place that allows you to play the lotto here in Italy or scratch cards.
you will only see women (much more than half of the people inside).

they don't care if you can watch them.
yes they have the same "machismo" approach if they lose.
a clear difference should be made based on income, culture, age, and so on.
classifying only on the basis of gender is extremely reductive and could introduce a bias on final evaluation.

Do you think the results of the research above are correct?

I know that the number of women involved in gambling is very small because in some countries, people's views of female gamblers are still very bad and they are considered dirty and unfit to be a wife. maybe the results of this research can be used by gambling business owners in developing their business.

I don't really agree with the poker aspect of the research. You can't say that men only look at poker as a game of skill and not based on odds. All the professional Poker players need to calculate the odds constantly, it doesn't matter if it's a woman or men. The majority of poker players are men, the same goes for the top players. When we look at the final tables of the big tournaments we are seeing 90% male professional poker players. It's not that woman can't play poker, it's just that they don't want to invest the thousands of hours you need to become a pro. The Poker grind involves a lot of dedication to spent it alone in front of the PC. I would argue that woman are more social than men and prefer to play games where they interact with others in reality.

there are various reasons why most women don't stay long in gambling. aside from the fact that they have other priorities especially if they have kids, they are also concern about the money that they will gonna lose in the process. unless, they have no problem with money. also, some are bothered about the image they are projecting to the public. as much as possible, they want to portray a good one as gambling have negative mark from the prying eyes of the public.

`

Most of the traditional gambling in my place are also a women gambler, but its hard to tell that they are growing in numbers since many are also playing secretly. Maybe men are more open to share their gambling activities as they are more exposed to different kind of gambling and on casinos. There are difference between men and women as a gambler and for me, women are more emotional when it comes to gambling while men are too serious on trying to make money in gambling.

Indeed, our societal norms and historical precedents have shaped the landscape of gambling, distinguishing the games that men and women gravitate towards. The emergent trend of female gamblers aligns with our societal transition towards equality. However, the clandestine nature of women's involvement, as you highlighted, is a matter of great concern. It potentially masks the magnitude of gambling addiction issues among women.

Gambling, when engaged in responsibly, can be an enjoyable pastime. It offers excitement and a break from the monotony of routine life. However, it's of paramount importance that individuals understand the risk factors associated with gambling and exercise caution. By maintaining self-discipline and a balanced approach, one can enjoy gambling without it becoming a detrimental factor in their lives.

Some stuff in the article are facts to be fair while some stuff is total nonsense in my opinion. The number of male and female gamblers are rising across the world thanks to online gambling sites, crypto etc.

However, the number of male gamblers will always be higher when compared to the number of female gamblers no matter how much times passes for various reasons.

These numbers vary wildly depending on the country based on my research.

Countries where women are self-reliant, i.e. those who work for their own livelihood and can take decisions, may have slightly higher numbers of female gamblers but that doesn't mean that the number of female gamblers are more then male. In some countries where women work as housewives or mother it must be difficult for them to gamble because they cannot provide financial support. In any aspect of gambling I think women lag behind men.

never that I will expect to be gambling dominated by a women but at least their count will increase year by year.
in the past I only see few women dealing in poker table in live casinos but nowadays? there are much number of them dealing against men.
so yes what you said is correct , there are countries that women are self supporting and surely they will gamble with their time and money.

Not in all instances. I have a female friend who gambles but she's not taking the risk too much. They are more conscious of losing in an instant so atleast they'd be betting small amounts for them to play more and to play longer which would give them more chance to win.

If you are talking about them being "heavy gamblers" yes, it all depends, but that's i usually observed here, and most of them are middle age woman, not the young ones, usually who have work/businesses with of course money sources.

Also, a note regarding when replying, try to quote the text/phrase only the things you want reply not the whole post/thoughts.

If this is the result of a research, the possibility can be accounted for. it's just that, in each country the results of the research will vary. because, in several other countries gambling is a common activity and even becomes part of the culture of their ancestors. for example, the Chinese consider gambling to be part of their culture.

We agree, but in today's era gambling knows no gender. because, we can access it easily only via cellular. In the past, people who wanted to gamble had to visit land-based casinos, and most were dominated by men because some women were reluctant to visit land-based casinos. now we can easily access it easily without traveling with only cellphones and the internet. So, based on what you said it is no longer valid. why, nowadays we find many cases related to women who experience addiction, whether it's offline casinos, especially for online casinos. at this time, gambling is not something as taboo as you say. In fact, there are lots of women who like to play slot machines in online casinos. I often encounter this phenomenon in my own environment.

But generally, it is more predominately men who like to gamble than women.
