Hey y'all...Seriously, I've been having this running through my mind.. maybe it's been discussed but this is on a diverse objective.
Why is it that we tend to have alot of men inclined and addicted to gambling than women? Is there any mystery guiding that?
I mean, You ain't gonna telme that everyone isn't roofed by this economic crises - both gender to speak of - so what's so special about men gambling??

Well, I guess it's also safe to say that if a Woman is capable of making a living herself, like having a good paying job like most men do, her lifestyle would change, very different from a typical housewife. This has something to do with history as well. Men are known to have a lot of vices as a past time after a long tiring work, while women usually are at home taking care of everything. Gambling is amongst these vices, so this has gone through generations after generations, until Women are sick of this kind of cycle so they have stand on their own. However, not every Woman in this world have the same opportunity as the Woman who lives in a progressive country who earns good pay check and this explains why men have most numbers regarding this cases.

I feel like gambling was a man thing argument was very valid in past America of 50s, 60s, 70s maybe even 80s where women were less likely to be hired by people just because of discrimination. We are living in 2023 now so gender inequality in wages and earnings are dying. My over 60 year older mum loves gambling houses, she regularly visits them in holiday season. Main reason is that "she can afford it". In past only men could afford it. Most women wouldn't work or hand their wage to husband.

There is nothing as guy thing and girly thing. When it comes to gambling, men are much into it. This is just because of the risking mind men have against the soft nature of the girls who easily feel bad on losing. Even the men feel bad on losing, but they'll easily overcome and continue to gamble whereas women give it an end just because they lost. This is the reason why it is possible to see more number of men gamblers against the number of women gamblers.

I don't think gambling is a gender-based thing. Gambling can be played by whomever. The spectrum where you belong to doesn't really matter because if a person finds joy and thinks that it could be of help to them for whatever reason they might have, then it's all okay. Having this some sort of discrimination and gender-bias could even be a great problem because we are already in the 21st century and almost all of us are fighting for equality and equity. And if you don't, you need to re-evaluate yourself and your perspective.

Gambling isn't and shouldn't be only a guy thing because what guys can do, girls can too, as well as other genders. Of course, this excludes the biological aspects that totally differentiate the sexes ability.

There is a pretty easy explanation, most gambling addicts are men because most gamblers are men. Just enter a big casino and you will see that most customers are men, or watch one of the big poker tournaments on TV and you see only men playing. Here and there are also some female gamblers, but I would expect that 90% of the Poker players are men. During my visits to Las Vegas I noticed the most woman where at the slot machines. Based on that I would expect most gambling addicts to be male. There are also some additional facts like men are more common to go gambling alone, whereas woman tend to stay in groups. Which also means that woman are looking for a good time and want to socialize, whereas men focus more on gambling itself.

As someone from Nigeria, you may be familiar with the term "Punters" on Twitter NG. These individuals are commonly used to sportybet due to the bonuses offered in each match or game they place bets on. When Bettor shares their booking codes, it becomes clear that women also enjoy gambling. There are many women who are passionate about football and place bets to both fuel their passion and earn money. Some even have Telegram groups where they share ideas and bets. It's amazing to see how a popular punter's win can inspire others to play the same game, bringing joy and happiness to the streets.

Personally, when I see a girl gambling, I don't assume that it's just for fun. Many of them appear to be doing it to make money, and some even advertise censored content on their Telegram link in order to entice people to join their VIP games and groups. However, it's always enjoyable to see them share their winning tickets on Twitter NG to celebrate their victories.

If it is were the old days when women were restricted I would have said that this is really true but things are advancing now and most of the country now women are now taking part in almost all the activities that were once reserve for men only and that also includes gambling habits too.

I still think gambling is male dominated and may remain so for a long time. Yes, we’re moving past the ancient times where women relegated to the background and were not allowed to do certain things. During these times up until now, men has been more involved in gambling and even if we’re starting to see more and more female gamblers enter the scene, it’s nowhere near or compared to the number of men already involved in gambling.
A lot of men has been gambling then and more still do today. It may not be a guy thing anymore to gamble but it’s certainly still male dominated.

But it seems that gambling is still dominated by men because it can be seen that there are still more men who play gambling than women, although we don't know the exact number. We can only say that times have changed and gambling has advanced more than a few years ago where there were only offline casinos around our places. But with the advancement of the internet nowadays, which gives an opportunity for online casinos, let alone crypto casinos, to thrive, it also gives space for women to try their hand at gambling.

And since the last few years, women's activity in doing various things has also increased and they don't only take care of the household but they also work. And this is also what makes women try to play gambling like men even though maybe women gamble in closed places because they still think that gambling is for men. And actually that's also not a problem because what must be considered is self-control and others so as not to cause problems for anyone, both men and women.

Females now have the upper hand; anything a man can accomplish, a woman can do better, even exceeding expectations.In the modern era, gambling is for both men and women. We gamble, win and lose, and that is how the system operates. Highlighting that women should avoid gambling would be essential and beneficial for the female gender, gambling isn't something that's completely free of difficulties, there are a few challenging circumstances in the space that would demand one to pay either with profits or losses. When benefits arrive, we rejoice, and when losses occur, we wear sad glances.

Just don't think about gambling too much. It's not a big deal whether there are more men engaged in gambling. Honestly, no offense but it's not even worth thinking on your mind as that didn't even have an effect on increasing our winning chance in gambling. Just kidding.

There's no special thing about men, no nothing related to emotions, roles, personalities, careers, and so on.

Enjoy gambling, enjoy the show, enjoy being entertained, and just do all that you want in gambling.

I agree that way back in earlier years, women are restricted to do what they wanted. They are bound to be in the home taking good care of the kids. But the current social development is different. Women had gain equality and in major country is not restricted of the conservative belief anymore. Women can now freely exercise their rights on entertainment and that includes gambling. So I do not think that gambling is only for a guy thing anymore. The world is changing and women are getting the right and freedom on different thing that they deserved .

Entering the modern era today, even someone who gambles will not see Gender to play. Everything is equalized, even all ages can play gambling without the need for KYC and without the need for a bank account because it uses crypto as payment. Online gambling has many variations and can be accessed from any device. A few days ago I saw teenagers starting to play slot gambling quite easily. But gambling is always synonymous with men and women's interest in gambling is not big enough. Maybe women prefer to do other things than gambling.

Maybe that's what they feel because they cannot replicate the emotion of a man but. If they gain a lot of experience thru their daily activities provably they can be one of the boys and enjoy playing on the game they think a guy thing.

But overall its not all about the gender since it all matter on how you can enjoy the game. Maybe other girls can't handle to much financial pressure but for sure once they find gambling as good source of entertainment they ignore a lot of negativity and focus to hit some wins on each games they engage with.

Testosterone allows men to be less feared and more attracted by danger and risky behaviours, but I think gambling is more related to culture than gender overall. For example I think ladies of some eastern asian countries are globally more eager to gamble than men of some european countries. In some cultures it's very natural and common to bet and to play with money while in some others it's perceived as a deviant behaviour. In addition, ladies don't play at the same games, they usually play more slots, lotto/bingo and loteries, while men play more table games like blackjack, poker, roulette and craps.

Women were less likely to go outside in the past. Also in some countries, women going outside is seen as a bad thing. So men are the ones that were able to go outside all the time and gamble as they wish. Women were in a more restricted environment in the past. That's the reason gambling is quite often seen as a man thing. But now with online gambling, anyone and I mean anyone can do it no? All you need is a smart device to do it. Men are always outside and doing work. Not in every country, but in most of them, this is the case. So women in the house have more free time and can gamble more than men can nowadays. So the number is increasing.
It's not an only man thing anymore. Women are joining too.

I understand you mate because it's not just you, I bet there are more like us here who think the very same way that it is indeed kind of weird and unusual to see a woman gambling while a having a drink and cigarette on their side. I mean, it's not every day or every week where we can see that kind of view which makes it more weird.

It's not unusual if you go ahead to the typical physical casinos where it's been placed by those woman that likes to gamble and have some drink at the same time.

But you think what you think and what is on your mind. You may be right on what you're thinking about them but we can also be wrong with that. In reality, I have heard and heard stories about why they're in those places having like a teasing style having a cigarette and wine on the side.

I know that in these times, gender doesn't matter anymore as they have the power to do what we can do but for the sake of limits, it's just hard to digest seeing a woman gambling.

It's just that we're not used to see it because we have believed that it's more a guy thing but not anymore today.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

I've seen a lot of similar threads, but this gender thing keeps coming up.

The answer is the same: men are more inclined to gamble because they're also bigger earners and bigger providers. It's expected from a man to deliver and make sure the family has what it needs, which presses him to get money somehow, even if it's through unlawful deeds, or taking too much risk. Women are more of a safe players, which is why they rarely bet big and also rarely lose a lot of money.
These roles are not only forged by society but also embedded deep into our minds.

Why does is seem like it is obligatory that it's only men that must look for money by all means,Gambling is not a thing that gives joy,and if you have been a victim of gambling,you cant advice someone to actually become addicted to it,but in this part of the word,since it looks as if it's men that are placed with the responsibility of looking for money by all means,but i have actually seen women that gamble too,but when we see those kind of girls or women,we label them untrained,or something in us seems to tell they are irresponsible,but while we are gambling,nothing in us tell us we are going astray because as far as I'm concerned, gambling has done us more harm than good.So to me,it is not even safe to say gambling is a guy thing.

Gambling is mean for both except the gender gap.But the male are gender who need funds to satisfy hi expenses.Then the expenses of his family,the expenses of his friends.So the most needed person will be the male,but it's not a men holding.Some of my friend also doing of gambling,they are girls.Mostly woman think gambling is not good for their family.But it's not the real fact,if you do gambling with the free money.Then gambling is the one of the best income generating tool in you life.Gambling had good and bad on it.

No I disagree, gambling is not a man thing only, both gender can gamble if they want to and there's no mystery about it..

Gone are those days society and cultural settings makes us believe that women participating in gambling makes them look irresponsible and shame to the family. Today we have lots of women with gambling experience than many guys out there.

And from what I observe, I haven't heard or seen a single female gambling addicts it we have a lot of male gambling addicts which means women are more self controlling and responsible as gamblers.

The point flew across your head buddy. OP is asking us if there's something about us males that makes us gamble on a more personal level than females, seeing as we take it competitively sometimes and most of the gambling addiction cases fall in the laps of males.

Am on course with OP, maybe you just not getting my own point, maybe you need to reread the thread's title again.

It's mostly taken that gambling is a guys thing and we can see a good number of guys in gambling than women, it's like 10 men to 1 woman in any gambling house you walk in, so it shouldn't be surprising that the high level of competition coming from guys, they are higher in number as gamblers.

A group of guys could be having a drink at a pub and later decide to hit a casino house, but the likelihood of women taking that decision is slim as they rather go to club , so I might agree with OP to an extent that gambling is mainly a guys thing than it is for women.

See you're talking about one thing and then saying another. You're literally talking about gender dynamics in gambling and how there's no disparity in your previous comment and now you're basically retracting it by saying that men dominates this space, completely against the previous post you made which doesn't even make sense cause OP's asking about what's the deal about men becoming more prone to gambling addiction than women. I gotta give props to your second post though cause now you've hit the spot and have given OP a comment that's in line with her post lol.

I've read the title and have read the post, no way I'm gonna go after you like that if I knew I was in the wrong.

Tell me, in what stretch of the imagination does this make sense when OP's asking for the reasons why men dominate the gambling space, including the demographic of people who are addicted to gambling?

You seem not to get it about the cultural perspective on how it affects the number of women participating in gambling and this is because our locations differs and what's obtained in my immediate environment with yours is not same and it's obvious from our comments about the OP topic.

I wouldn't want to stress much about my first comment cause it is something subjective, but in my objectiveness I think I have a clear understanding now of not just the OP's topic but your comment too @Casdinyard.

Oh I get it alright. I'm not so much as a stupid fuck when it comes to the diversity of cultures in different places given the fact that the place I live in is a melting pot of different cultures from around the world. What I'm only after is how the first comment you made is so unrelated to the post made by OP, nothing more. Throwing things like the difference between then and now in gender dynamics, as well as disagreeing with OP when statistical data says otherwise (even you said it yourself in the second comment lol) is what made me more interested about your comment.

Even this comment you made's not really in line with everything you said. I don't understand why you gotta pull "cultural perspective and difference" when the post was all about male gambling addiction becoming a really prominent thing in this space compared to female gambling addiction.
