Do you think the results of the research above are correct?
That's right, as far as I know Islam, Christianity, Hinduism & Buddhism, including Jews or Christians they have a bible or word from their god about the prohibition of gambling, not only for women, maybe for all adherents there is a prohibition against gambling.

Talking about women involved in gambling, indeed it is something that is bad to look at, many of them are considered negative, but we can't also look at all of them negatively, while they can take care of themselves I think it's not a problem, but still bad views haunt them.

maybe the results of this research can be used by gambling business owners in developing their business.
What does this have to do with the owner of the gambling industry, I don't think the research has anything to do with it.

Casino owners are free to employ women as waitresses in their casinos, it's common for us to see, every online or offline casino must have women in it. Regardless they bet or not there.

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.

For example, poker, from a man's point of view is considered a skill-based gamble. While women see it as a game of calculating the odds.

In gambling, generally, women don't like it when others see them lose. Girls probably prefer slot machines because no one sees players win or lose.

Gambling with slot machines is often a personal experience free of guilt or shame. While the men are not like that.

According to research, when a man loses a gamble, there's a machismo attached to him saying, "Yeah, I lost £500, but I can afford it."


And when you win big, guys like it to be exposed right away. Because, they consider this as part of the skill.

This difference in reasons does not necessarily indicate whether men prefer to gamble than women. Women who like to gamble or men who like to gamble are both related to the courage to take risks.

For different reasons, people who like to gamble see it as fun and for reasons that are more complex than just economics.

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 think gender would be irrelevant to the style or approach of any gambler. Reading the cited research made me think that it would probably be because of the type of gambling project they are into. Take this as an example, if most women plays slot more that men, then statistically women would really be taken the data as thinking in probabilities. If most men plays poker or sports betting more than women, (which most of the time base on skill) then it is just that based on statistics men gamble based on skill.

This will be something that will definitely differ from everyone's view of gambling that women do. I have never done research on this, but it is possible that it could be true as long as it is where the research is done. I myself rarely or have never seen women gamble in person (definitely in my environment) so indeed men dominate gambling. Where I live, most women are only housewives, so they don't have any income from their own work, whatever their husbands are responsible for.
I accept that opinion, that women have more fear of losing money compared to men, I will give a simple example, what I see is that women are usually better at managing finances than men, yes, that's from my personal experience.

I think I agree with the research because most women that I know that gambles are interested in percentage odds games. They always feel they can win because they're lucky and sometimes it favors them and they win but other times it doesn't go in their favor but still they love chance games.

While the guys prefer to let their skills and the knowledge they have about the sport help them win the bets and I believe that's why many men are into sport betting because they have a higher percentage of winning since they understand the game very well and know who might win.

The percentage of woman betting on sport games are small instead they're interested in games like slots that everyone has the same percentage or chance of winning like because you don't need skills to win this type of gamble but some women still like sport betting.
Men may feel they know more about sports, so they choose sports betting when gambling. But some play gambling games based on luck rather than sports betting because they think they can win it. But some women also like sports betting because there are women who love football to the point of knowing the players of each team by heart, and that's rare. But that percentage is just a number that will surely change as the popularity of gambling grows so that it will attract more women to gamble in secret.

Definitely true. When women does have financial capabilities, they can have the freedom they want. They don't even need men besides them anymore. This is evident to rich families and women are not dependent on their husbands.

Various reason for womens gambling. Family issues are often over think by women and you can compare this to a rebel child trying to make a point. Gambling women must be different reasons too.

Family responsibility is not meant to be the woman's job,  at least the man should make full responsibility for the family because the man is configured to chase the risk and the woman is to take care of the home domestically and also pursue any career that will not interfere with the primary responsibilities so this is the difference between the man and a woman when it comes to responsibility handling in the family.

Gambling is meant for the men and not women and women are only engage in it in low percentages and their only gamble for fun just to ease the pressure.

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.
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.
The truth is that studies like the one provided by the OP are very subjective, as every country and sometimes different provinces on the same country have a different culture.

So assuming the findings of the study are correct, this is only true for the place in which the study was realized, if they tried the same experiment in a different country their results could be completely different, meaning that studies like that are not very useful when it comes to explaining something as complex as human behavior.

IMO, when it comes to money, women have a different point of view. It's not about losing but more of regret about even a wasted dollar or a cent.
Well, there are many women gamblers as well and they have their own reasoning why they're playing. Losing is part of gambling but the regret of spending the money in gambling as wasted might depend if you have a family of your own already or still single who can spend your money without guilt.

We, men, do not budge with a $1000 loss but it becomes our trophy to tell other men that we can tolerate losing that kind of amount and yet it's like nothing to us. Is gambling for women? Yes and no. There are women who think like us when it comes to their pride.
I think it's because in the eyes of many, women are not supposed to be playing and should stay at home attending to household chores and taking care of the kids. But it's different now, women can do everything like what men do. Anyway, gambling is for everyone regardless of your gender as long as you're in legal age to play and able to bear the fact that you can possibly lose your money.

I don't take loans, ask for sig if I ever do.

Dumb ass logic and reasoning that's probably filled with a use case who wasn't thinking properly. Calculating odds IS a skill, so both women and men know that, hope that's enough for that. Guilt? While playing a damn slot machine? I reckon people have a lot of better things to think about than that. And about the bragging part, that's just pride talking. Anyone can literally have the same experience, whether it be in gambling, or in fashion of clothing, or whatever.

Really the only reason why men prefer to gamble more than women is because, well, men like it more than women. Simple as that. I don't think there's a need to go through the nitty gritty of it. But if we were, then this is only my assumption but it might be because gambling was originally a society filled with men in the first place. That's why the results of what we see now, are well, filled with men gamblers. It's a matter of "norms", which is changing for the most part afaik, but slowly.

That, or it's just because men (Majority) are naturally more inclined to risk-taking (and dumbness as well). At least comparing it in scale against women anyway.

I won't say gambling is not for them because when I watch poker tournaments, I always want to see a woman defeat the men, that's where women are strong because it had always been hard to read them. It's like they are always bluffing.
But about the "machismo" thing, the masculine pride, I think it is true too. We, men, do not budge with a $1000 loss but it becomes our trophy to tell other men that we can tolerate losing that kind of amount and yet it's like nothing to us. Is gambling for women? Yes and no.

It depends on what is being played and the country, when I was in Japan, I have seen women playing pachinko more than men. They sit on a chair while smoking, and the other hand on a stick slot machine. The women prefer to play a simple game, they just want to push the button or turn on the stick and won. they don't want to think while playing like sports bet, card or game table where need their small brain to think.

I cannot attest to the credibility of this research but I can say that I agree with them whether right or wrong. Women do not gamble much. In my country, there are not many casino's but many sports betting places. You barely find women in these places because of how inappropriate it is to find women in this kind of places. Women gamble more secretly than openly, because of how unacceptable many society has made this character to be. In my country, Men gamble more than women.
Some women are really into gambling and in my country, they gamble more often on the street since its a traditional way of gambling in my place and you can see more women on the table. I think this varies depends on the culture of one country and their traditions. Though the data speaks it all but still on other area there might be a different result. Women are into gambling already, some countries are already accepted it.

It is also the same in my country especially when the authority commences a public bingo game.  Most of the participants are women.  I do not know why women are funds of Bingo games but I often see them on the Bingo and lottery venue.  There is way more than woman on these gambling activities than on the sports betting event or cockfighting.  This simply shows that men and women have different preference when it comes to gambling.

I observed differences between men and women in gambling is how the society is more acceptable for men than women in participating on gambling activity.  Society seems to se men gambling activity as normal and they don't create much fuzz if ever a man had been find out to be gambling while when it is a women, society think of it as strange and not acceptable. 

I think in a way you can also say that women are far more conservative in gambling compared to men. Conservative in a sense that they know mostly when to stop and are more self-aware compared to a lot of men that continues to gamble even though they are already into deep and are at risk of getting in a huge debt. I know a few girls that are into gambling, and only one of them can be considered an addict and the rest are actually making some profits. As for the men, well they are still making something, though they are relatively more susceptible to throwing away their life savings in one go than the women - at least that's what i observed from the people I know.

If women are more conservative why is it that there is an alarming rate of gambling addiction increase on women.  It was stated that there is a 700% increased of reported gambling addiction on women while 40% increased on men for the last 20 years.  This simply mean an increased in the percentage of women participating in gambling activity.

In every country you will find women gambling less than men. There are also countries where women are not seen gambling. Many men in my country have made gambling a profession, some have made gambling their means of earning. But I have not seen women gambling in my country yet. Women cannot emotionally connect themselves with gambling for fear of losing money, because women think more about winning than men.

This has been discussed several times; both on this gambling board and on the other society board, by the way, even for cultural reasons, many of the posters on this forum see it as a dishonor for women to bet, starting with that cultural variable, the study should be determined in that sense. (e.g.)

It is not the same to measure that target in the United States as a Middle Eastern country, so it is not about gender, that is actually a myth, women have the same impulse to gamble as men.

The foregoing is decisive to know precise data between these differences "if there are any" because knowledge is essential, regardless of gender, since a man does not make a correct bet for being a man, he does it because he has experience and knowledge, and that is vital. regardless of gender.

It does makes sense. Maybe it is correct, maybe it is not.
But personally, what researches had found out is correct. I'm supporting it as I also observed myself those supporting details they mentioned with regards to the result of their study.

On the other hand, your idea seems to be outdated. Can you list countries that that portrays the perspective you mentioned?
