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.

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.

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. There are women who think like us when it comes to their pride.

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.
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.

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.

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?

I somehow disagree with the statements that were discussed.

Just to reiterate, everyone hates to see them lose in a gambling match. Regardless of the gender, whenever a person loses money, the initial reaction is they feel guilty about their decisions. Obviously, the first step that they would do is to try to recover their losses by betting once again.

The feeling of disbelief and guilty are gender-neutral reactions that is normal for any person who delves into this kind of activity. Regardless of the gender, everyone hates to lose. Though if there is one thing that I do agree, it is that women tend to control their emotions better compared to men which results to the former having more chances of success in dealing with addiction.

women focus a lot on living competing with their friends, for women to go somewhere popular and take a picture and post it on the social network is much better than going to the casino and losing money, because of this thought the number of women who are losing money in casinos is a very small number and being a small number ends up creating a bad image for that small number of women who are in the casino because there are a large number of men in the casino, so in a couple’s house, the husband is unlikely to go accept that the woman goes alone to play at the casino

even if the woman says that she is going to go out with her friends to the casino, the husband will not like it because there will be a lot of men in the casino and everyone knows that the men in the casino are looking for money, sex and alcohol. even rich guys when they go to physical casinos they want to win money, they want to consume alcohol and sex to feel powerful. right here on the forum there was a guy who posted about his adventures in the physical casino and reported that he won or lost, consumed alcohol and had sex with many women in one night

We cannot expect woman to be found in some specific gambling settings or environment because it's not that good enough for their kind of personality, men have been found in many ways being rugged in adaptation to many environmental conditions unlike women, this does not limit to he physical gambling alone, the online casino gambling also have this same experience with low number of women participation in gambling.
Well, I don't think this will happen with women, because as you said, the facts about gambling are not in their personality. But to be honest I have a boyfriend who likes gambling, he is very addicted. Initially, I was very surprised when I found out that my friend (female) was in debt and almost every day many people came to her house to collect debts. And when I investigated by asking him a few questions, it turned out that he found out about this gambling through an advertisement on the app over the phone. After I learned this, I am now starting to realize that in fact it cannot be denied that men or women or anyone, even minors, are very likely to know about gambling, because now gambling has started to become widespread in the general public and the reason is because the circulation of online gambling systems, namely slots on several social media.

To be honest, I have never seen a women gambling in the real world but yes I have seen them on online casinos.
It's hard to judge their behavior online but I guess there shouldn't be much difference between men and women in gambling.
But it's obvious that men are a lot more than women in gambling and most of the men won't like women who gambles.
Women are mostly seen as the one who runs the house and men won't want them to gamble away the money they kept to run the house.
it's different in my country, gambling is legal and we here see a lot of housewives who are heavy gamblers and they don't even take care of their children properly and that's what makes me quite hate women gamblers (because usually they forget their responsibilities in their family)

indeed gambling is open to all genders, but men and women have different responsibilities and roles in social life and also in the family, i'm not really sure about the research from the article, so i don't really want think hard about it.

Exactly what I am saying. If women starts gambling and get addicted to it then the chances are high that they would end up using money meant for family responsibilities.
Taking care of children is one of them and managing the expenses is another, both of which requires the women to pay more attention into.
But gambling takes it away and hence people portray as them as bad people. It's a harsh reality but that's what the truth is.

Gambling goes beyond the act - its about assessing risk, making choices, and dealing with consequences. Isnt it high time we dissolve these stereotypes and affirm women' equal ability to partake in and relish such activities?

I highly agree with dissolving the stereotyping of women.  Women like men have the same weakness when it comes to gambling.  I don't know why people keep on differentiating the two when the impact of gambling to both gender is the same and that is the uncontrollable urge to gamble, the gambling addiction.

Women like men are also susceptible to gambling addiction, and they are also undergoing the same process when they engage in gambling.  Way back in ancient times we can say that women are not allowed to partake to gambling openly reason why most of the studies at that time is about men being addicted to gambling.  But nowadays, men and women have the same exposure to gambling and we have seen how men and women are alike in their approach to gambling activity.  Aside from that, they are also using the same method to negate the effect of gambling addiction which is moderating of their activity.  

So in conclusion, men and women, being human have the same impulse towards gambling activity, both of these gender have different preferences, styles of games ang gambling approaches that can be seen in both genders.  So women in terms of gambling have no difference with men in both strategy, preference, approach, and addiction.

The main difference is that they gamble less, or at least traditionally have done so. I would like to have reliable data on gender differences in online gambling, what happens is that they are not reliable on sites where there is no full KYC, they may ask you for your gender when you register but that does not imply that you are going to tell the truth.

I would bet that women gamble more online when doing so in privacy, although I think the percentage will still be significantly lower than men.
Yes, almost all casinos ask for your gender, which may also interfere with privacy, but the rules must be obeyed. After all, we can gamble at licensed casinos, so we must understand and comply with their rules. If gamblers have objections, don't gamble at online casinos, just play on platforms. decentralized gambling, after all it's rare that I find female gamblers who become addicts never even see the news anywhere about it.

We often see cases of men committing suicide because they have a lot of debt and also losing to gambling, a man stealing for gambling and other cases. I have never found that women have cases because of gambling. women are not that many in online casinos let alone in land based casinos and we never really come across that many women gamble.  Wink

This discussion is not that necessary because we all know that men are up in numbers when it comes to taking risk in a certain job or other, gambling is very risky and men are made to be tougher, when they lose they smile and move on, many women can't withstand what men are facing, not even for a day, they might end up in an Asylum or something.

Only smart women will understand that no matter the measurement strategy between men and women, the difference is night and day, the world became what it is today because of men, they did all the hardest work, oil fields, gold mines, train tracks, and many many more.

I have seen limited numbers of females gambling online, they hardly do, and once they lose they aren't coming back, the reason why some men are addicted to gambling is because of pressure in society, they don't want to be looked down on like worthless pieces of trash.
