But here is the fact, female gamblers are most likely gambling for fun and they prefer to play low-risk games so they can relax and unwind, unlike majority of men who are actually gambling to earn a living and mostly prefer to play high-risk games that promise massive amount of profits.
I see feminine women don't seem to worry much about risks, whether they're high or low. Instead, they lean towards games that are easier for them to enjoy. Sweet Bonanza seems to be designed with feminine appeal in mind, with its cheerful background music and non-intimidating fruit theme, which attracts many women to play it.

I often see women dressed in sexy outfits streaming and playing this game as promoters.

However, slot games, including Sweet Bonanza, always come with high risks. The simplest job is just clicking or using auto-play and waiting for a win. Nowadays, gambling service providers are getting smarter in targeting markets, especially women with their female characters.

Of course, there are also women who enjoy poker. Because everyone's tastes and preferences are different.

Do you have any evidence to the claim that "the rate at which women are now picking interest in gambling is so alarming"? Because you haven't supplied any. In many societies around the world, women are often still paid less than men and equality in pay is at max a few decades old in even the most developed countries. Women are also often in the position where they are raising the family and all spare funds are often allocated in this direction, to give their children the best upbringing possible. This also connects with availability of time which is also limited. Then I don't have any proof, but I'd say that there is also a greater risk aversion and less wastefulness in spending when it comes to women.

 As a senior ranking member of the forum, I expected you to do a research yourself but since you're too busy to do that, I have a prove to backup my statement. Well, there's no doubt that the number of men involved in  gambling are much more than women, stats have it that about 64% of people in the gambling population are men while the rest 36% are women you could check this link for that
 https://playtoday.co/blog/stats/male-vs-female-gambling-statistics/#:~:text=daily%20gamblers%20worldwide.-,What%20Percentage%20of%20Gamblers%20are%20Male%20and%20Female%3F,and%20only%2036%25%20are%20women.

 Also according to a research I came across, made by Forbes in 2022, it says that women are beginning to sign up for mobile sports betting app faster than men, it also says that about 4.6 million joined sports betting apps in the U.S now if that could happen in the states by 2022 you could imagine the number of women that's joined currently especially in Africa and Asia.

After a thorough research, I've come to understand that the history of gambling could be traced far back to the ancient Chinese and was mostly practiced by men cause by then it didn't seem right for women to be involved in such act, Well it wasn't illegal for women but there where more men participating in casinos than women, but change they say is constant and as time passed, women gradually began to participate in the act and I think in the 19th if I'm not mistaken more women began to participate in it and by then a woman called Alice Iver Tubbs, also known as (Poker Alice) became a professional in gambling, history have it that she was very good with poker which led to the name Poker Alice.

 However in recent times we're beginning to see more gamblers who are woman emerge and though they're not yet equal to the amount of male gambler, a good amount of women globally have began to pick interest in it, since it's now being socialized, to back that up, I know some of my friends that participate in gambling and even play slot games as well as staking of the UEFA Champions League games, I know a friend who also love to stake on Al-Nassr cause her favourite football celebrity Ronaldo plays for the team. lol I won't also deny that she's gradually luring me into sports betting as well.

 Also the rate at which women are now picking interes in gambling is so alarming, there are a good number of female punters on the media with good fanbase and they give good betting advice, we all know that gambling does guarantee 100% success but if you follow their predictions you could get atleast 60 to 70% chances of winning the bet. That's to tell you how well women are now involving in gambling and as time passes there's a tendency for more women to indulge in it as well, since the social media have made gambling more popular and the fact that it involves sporting activities makes that more possible.

Though, I will say they are increasing rapidly but the rate of which women gamble is still low compared to the men. The practice is more common to the men and not the women. In my country, women who gamble are termed as irresponsible and not fit to be wife's or mothers. A man will not want to marry a woman who gambles as she might not be able to to bring up the children in a responsible manner.
There's nothing stopping a lady who want to Involve herself in gambling she just shouldn't make it so obvious or become addicted to it. It should be something she do for fun or rather when she feels like and not all the time. If she's still in the youth age then it's a bit fine but don't get addicted up to her marriage as a new life has started as a wife and a mother.

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)
Indeed there are women in gambling too, but do we really need another gender centered debate?

Honestly speaking, I dont mind women gambling - its their money and its their choice to decide how to spend that money. But if you ask my opinion, men or women, people should gamble for fun and not for making money, if it is becoming an addiction they need to stop and rethink their life decisions.

Most of the women you will end up seeing are the same as men who promote gambling as "influencing" and hence they are being paid for promotions. Dont be a fool to follow their steps, its all a set up to lure you into gambling in a broader perspective.

Yeah, women gamblers are increasing in number due to online casinos but I don't think they can even compete with the number of male gamblers. I don't think that even 1/4th of gamblers are women so I guess male gamblers will always be more in number because women aren't much interested in gambling as males and they really don't want to win and earn, they can easily take whatever they want by controlling their own husbands and boyfriends.
We try our best to enable our ends meeting profits, though losses are also part of the game, it's not easy in the system to gamble and earn substantial winnings, but everything comes with process and plans. The women ratio in gambling will never surpassed the percentage of men in the system. The men knows what to do but they mellow down because there's presence of high risks in what they get involved. Women that do gamble are preferably stronger and ready to take on bold steps because they're confident of earning from solid activities.

Very funny in the aspect you said they want to control their husband and take whatever they want. That is a sad truth women see men who gamble as Inresponsible men but when an Inresponsible man win gamble they demand for money. And when spending it they forgot so soon that the money is coming from that same Inresponsible man. What a very funny gender. But I think many female have started gambling, there is no much gender inequality like before. Women believe that what a man can do a woman can do. but even as that, the spirit of not spending unnecessarily does not allow them. And I see that it is that thing that made them run from gambling because they always want to be smart by always wining and not spending much.

Ehmm, let's just get straight to the point you said in this post. you say, "but if you follow their predictions you could get at least 60 to 70% chances of winning the bet". It is possible that this could happen, but what is certain is that predictions are just predictions and do not determine a definite victory. actually, I don't underestimate women in terms of predictions, but because you involve football in this post. in fact, it's not just about being a fan to fully understand football, especially the Al Nassr player, namely Ronaldo, who you mentioned in your post. Football is complex, unlike slot games which do not require research and analysis.
in football, there are many mechanisms that must be known, especially for gamblers. in short, getting to know football in depth with the insight we have and involving it. It is possible that women can do it just like most men. it's just, in theory, as I said before. apart from really understanding sports, there are many variables involved if we want our predictions to be close to the expected results. so, if there are women involved, especially if they often give predictions, I really appreciate it. although in reality, we tend to prefer to predict it ourselves. for me, researching and analyzing, is an art in football betting.

Well, we're back to the female gamblers. in essence, women and men are the same. we both have a feeling of, yeah, curiosity, interest and a sense of wanting to try playing it. and to me, that is purely instinctive human nature. It doesn't matter whether it's a man or a woman, it's the same even though gambling is dominated by men. there are various reasons and factors why men tend to dominate gambling, one of which is if we trace the history of ancient gambling. especially in this era, someone can freely access gambling sites on their smartphone. whether women or men, everyone is free according to their own wishes. well, the tip I want to convey, know the limits of our abilities. that way, gambling will not be a problem in the future.

I know a lot of old women who are playing cards in the province. Most of them have nothing to do in the afternoon or after they serve lunch to their families and do the dishes so they gamble with their friends like it's a "siesta".
Actually, my wife's mom does that every day. 2 groups of ladies, 2 tables, 2 sets of cards, and 3 pairs of chairs. That's all they need to start the siesta. All are women, it's very rare to see one man in their group because most of the time, men play with men too.
It's okay for me because they are really putting a lot of money in their game. It's more like a hobby for them to kill time while they wait for their husbands and serve dinner later.

More women indeed gamble today but I think it's just fine as long as they enjoy it. There are also more sports-enthusiastic women in this era and most of the women I meet love watching basketball so there goes another sports bettor. My wife loves watching basketball too although she is not really playing the game but she knows the rules.
We are not in the old era anymore where we believe in traditional things like gambling is only for men. I don't think we will be back on that and that's good for their business.

It’s not alarming. Not even surprising to see women participating more in what would have been classified decades ago as a man dominated activity. Your topic head certainly has an alarming tone to it but when going through the topic, I failed to see just how alarmed you are to see women now doing what they want.

You’ve noticed the gradual increase in numbers over the years so it shouldn’t be alarming as it’s barely a new thing; really. Also, with society gradually changing over the years, women are not subjected to the background anymore and are free to indulge in and enjoy any activity they fancy. Little to no societal stigma and no expectations expected from anyone anymore on how to behave.


Right. It's more like a cool evolution. Women doing their thing in areas once labeled as guys only is just the way it should be. No big surprise there. Society's loosening up and women can dive into whatever they fancy without batting an eye. It's all about breaking free from those old expectations and embracing a more open-minded vibe

With all this long post, You forgot to indicate the actual stats on what number or percentage of woman interested on gambling to verify if it’s really shocking or not. The only thing you do this is to justify that their winning rate is high.

I don’t see any shocking information here related to woman interested in gambling aside from some of them is good on betting. I knew some of my facebook friend that do gamble but they are still minimal in number if you compared it to all my male friends that do gambling.

"What a man can do, a woman can do better." Even if that adage is overemphasised, I am still certain that where you see men, you can see women, so gaming and gambling are no exceptions here.

What causes setbacks for women in most spheres are gender and religion, this is applicable in many environments. Still, anywhere you see women entirely free and also not stigmatised about gambling, you can be sure to see them gambling. Just like men, they are humans that think, relate and flow in every facet of life like social animals, gambling should not be an exception here.

There are also many women who are gambling that you will never know. Though this is not a survey, but these days, among 5 ladies I meet newly, at least 2 of them will be gambling. These are the people you will not expect they can ever be gambling but when you are closer to them, you can see them doing it regularly on their phones. This makes me conclude that if women could be in football and are ardent supporters of it, then one can always think that they are porous to gambling as well.

This is very good for the gambling industry because if more women get interested in gambling, they will also attract more men into gambling. This is true for every industry when you think about it. The more women listen to certain type of music, the more men follow. It is also sad in a way. I am not sure if these women gamble to have fun or to have an income. If they are playing to have fun then it is a good thing. It means they are not in poverty. Otherwise it means their monthly income isn't enough and they are trying to generate income in a place where they shouldn't...

Well I Will not be in doubt but this your gambling histories would had been interesting if you provided us with a link because most of us would definitely have interest towards it since you just drew my attention towards it at this moment coming across the thread.

With a personal derivative instigations if maybe women had once been deprived from gambling could be as Feminism sentiments with the fact that women are weak in emotions to withstand looses in the gambling, they (females) could maybe relying their finances on the men.
I want you to think about a scenero of someone asking you to give him/her money to go stake on what has a very high potential to lost it, I guess you would frown at it.
And when you look at it today's, the rate of women who gambles are more heart broken than those of them who could stand the pressures at a certain lost.

So then time must had grown widely advanced where all that discriminations were scraped off and women could grow up with the guts to finances themselves and so they could have also grown stronger emotions to accept that which could cause a breaking heart (emotions) which has optimises them the possibilities to then gamble.

Just my layman's thought though if really there was once related to OPe thread about the females denials and the histories of their gamblings.

When I saw this thread I searched because I thought the percentage of women was lower, but I see that it is higher than I expected.

Everything has changed when the internet become more advanced. We see many online gambling sites available and give ease to all gamblers playing gambling online. This also helps women playing online gambling as they feel using online gambling makes them hide under the radar.

I think this is the key.

This makes the number of women playing gambling increase because they don't have to visit offline casinos to play gambling. They can just stay at home and use their devices to start playing online gambling. That's one reason for the increasing number of women involved in online gambling, while there are other reasons for them that they don't tell.

But this can increase the addiction problem as women can also get addicted as men. We never know why women are addicted to gambling because once someone loses control, that person can get addicted without realizing it.

I do not see why this is shocking or alarming, on the past the number of women that worked and got a salary for their work was low, so the majority could not enjoy gambling because they had no money to spare to begin with.

Now that this has changed and in many countries the majority of them get a salary for their efforts, then it is natural they are exploring the options they have available to entertain themselves, and if some decide to do so with some regularity then that is their decision.

Why is that equality "alarming"?
Actually, it not worrying because it all depends on the perspective of society and also men towards women who are interested in gambling.
Not all female gamblers will be worried and of course many successful female gamblers have better attitudes and behavior than men in gambling, after all in gambling gender will not affect anything.

Come on, now you are just making up stuff. 60 to 70% chances of winning the bet doesn't tell us anything. Are those 0.05% multipliers? Or are you claiming that they have 60% - 70% change to make profit at the end of the day? Because that's just nonsense. It would put gambling industry out of business, as no one would bet themselves and would just delegate their bets to people who would bring the profits.
Obviously there can be good women gamblers no matter the gender, but give me some studies of statistics and don't just make them up as you write.
Hahaha I agree with you and all of that is just percentage made by the gambler, in gambling performance the opportunity is just hope of winning, no gambler has any guarantee of winning.
Women and men are all the same, they are just gamblers who are also customers who risk money and rely on luck or fate to win.
Maybe in some bets you can rely on knowledge and skills, but not many gamblers are able to do this, we all never get any results according to expectations.
Gender is only physical difference and in gambling it all comes back to each gambler whether they can do their best or not.

Gambling is for everyone except for underage gamblers. There is no limitation of gender in gambling. So many went can even be at their home and still gamble in online casinos and no body will know. There is this argument we had one day and people were saying that woman are less in gambling while men a too many, I told them that even if women in gambling are not up to the number of men in gambling, the difference would be minor.
No shocks to see women gambling, it's becoming a normal thing to see and leave. We gamble to have extra changes in the pocket, ensure we use our chances eligible. We argue everyday in the system but coming to this topic, women are few and consider inferior in the system. Most people thinks gambling is not meant for women, rather there are vast numbers of other activities these women could anticipate apart from gambling. For me, I don't indulge in any activities or advise any person of the opposite sex to gamble, it's totally out of the picture.

The rate at which women are getting interested in gambling doesn't seem alarming to me. In the past, it would be frowned upon but they do it in the secret but right now, everyone is accepting the fact that, yeah, women can gamble to as much as men can. They enjoy gambling just like their male counterparts. And it has become totally acceptable.

You know what is alarming? Underage gambling. This is what is alarming. It is like the metaphorical hydra with several heads very difficulty to kill because while there are media campaigns to stop create awareness about this and many resources out there to help underaged gamblers, we have a growing irresponsible and complacent parenting that is making it worse.
