Topic: The shocking rate of women interested in gambling. - page 9. (Read 2307 times)

I agree that women will not have any problem if they don't lean towards addiction. Women are no longer lagging behind men and they are working on an equal footing with men. But I think women are more concerned about financial loss than men in gambling. In the case that women are more patient there will be less tendency to lean towards addiction if money is lost women will not become more addicted.

I think an increase in this indicator negatively affects the institution of the family as a whole. Many women in developed countries want to build a career and develop, and only then start a family. In principle, this is logical, because in capitalist countries it will be very difficult to survive without a good level of earnings, and if you have a child without a good job, then the woman dooms herself to poverty, because all expenses will go to him. It is clear that not all women will be able to do this and some are looking for salvation to quickly get rich in such an area as gambling. I think that's why women come there. I would like them to understand the whole essence of the game and the cash flow of this business from the moment they spend a lot of money on it. I would not like to see some of them become addicted to games, this could undermine the institution of the family as a whole.

Yes, casino have KYC to know their customer but that doesn't stop  them to verify themselves. Some casinos are not too strict with their rules and still allow small gamblers to playing gambling without doing KYC. This gives an opportunity to minors comes to that site and playing gambling and the casino still don't know who their customer. But if somehow the casino needs them doing KYC, those minors can borrow adults identity and verify them. We know how smart those minors use their skills to do whatever they want and if adults are not supervision them or educate them with right, those minors can still playing gambling easily.

Yes, addiction rate can increase anytime if there are no educations for the minors because they feel that playing gambling in their age is allow. They will easily access the gambling site from their devices.

Yeah, the casinos only focus on search more visitors and customers who will be their loyal members and always come back to their site to playing gambling. They will use many ways to promote their site and gives many bonuses to the new customers as a welcome bonus to them. Those underage that see the advert will curious and want to know more about the site and they will visit the site and searching what they looking for. We can't blame them but we can educate underage to stay away from gambling because that can give them a problem.

currently, the level of women's involvement in gambling is increasing globally, in fact the number will continue to increase along with the development of the global gambling industry. this may be due to different norms, past and present, where now people are more open and do not think that women should not gamble. and increasingly easier access to casino platforms means more women gamble to earn money or just entertain themselves, especially housewives who spend most of their time alone at home.

Maybe in some countries gambling is legal so it is not surprising that there are gambling advertisements on almost all platforms starting from television and social media. Because gambling is a business, the promotions carried out are also increasingly massive and it is not their business if underage children see these advertisements, but it will indirectly influence their curiosity to try gambling.

This is different from my country, where gambling is still illegal, so gambling advertising is strictly prohibited by the government. There is even a beautiful female influencer who promotes gambling. Not long afterward, he was tried by the authorities. back to the thread, currently the number of women who are interested in gambling games is very large because currently most of the workers in the gambling sector and those involved in gambling promotion/advertising are also mostly women, maybe this is what influences women now to be interested in gambling.

Most times it's the fault of the parent as failing to carry out parental obligations on that aspect but at a time I get to understand that nowadays children are getting much smarter and secretive on how they do stuffs which if caught will get them punished, they know what's wrong and still choose to and at the very end have to pay the price the hard way.

Maybe they do have written terms and conditions in which there are rules that someone who is underage is not allowed to play gambling, but in practice there are still many minors who gamble. Maybe in offline casinos it can be minimized so that someone who is underage cannot play, but the problem now is that online casinos are more numerous and it is very easy to access, especially now that minors already have their own cellphones.
I wouldn't say it's entirely the casino's fault, of course parental supervision is also very necessary. But the easy access to enter is something that must be corrected if they really have terms and conditions about age restrictions, otherwise it can be said that they are not serious about it. Parents should also be responsible for always paying attention to their children's activities, especially since the money they get must also come from their parents. In addition, the government must also be present to provide rules and regulations if gambling in the country is legalized. But the fact is that even though gambling is something that is prohibited by the government, there are still many sites operating.
You are right, their main focus lies on business, thus anyone who comes and plays will be allowed because their profits are from there.

I saw the two sources the OP posted; still, according to Playtoday.com, the majority of gamblers account for 64% of the total gamblers, but women participating are actively increasing and are currently at 36%, at least according to them; it's not an insignificant percentage. It'd also be interesting to see some worldwide statistics from a more reputable source, such as Statista or OurWorldinData.

I personally don't think gambling has a gender; however, it is generally accepted that men are more prone to it than women. With the advances of society, gambling has become far more common, due to online casinos as well, and it's now not something extraordinary, nor does it carry the same stigma it used to carry a few decades ago. This, in my opinion, has attracted more women into the scene because gambling has become a "norm" in our society, something that isn't unusual or far-fetched.

The casinos and gambling sites are always on the move to improve their business by any means, we can see the advertisement from ads and our television, it is non of their business if underage may see this advert and try them out since most are inquisitive to new things. We can't blame them, if the brain doesn't tell doing something wrong then let them learn the hard way.

But most of the casinos know have KYC so I don't think they can participate on any legitimate platform unless if they go on a casino which doesn't have license or running illegally on their jurisdiction. I'm more surprise if there's a lot of minors would do unimaginable things and decide to fake every details of their information just to gamble since they got influence by social media influencer to gamble and think about they can earn easy money by participating on their promoted casino then follow their strategy presented on their videos or livestreams.

In this case addiction rate will became more higher since everyone has easy access on gambling and there's a lot of social media personality promote it.

The casino will use many ways to have more members and we know that the casino already makes many promotions to attract people's attention so they can visits the casino. Yeah, the underage uses the internet without supervision and many of them knows gambling from their social media page or from their friends. It's sad because they don't know what they do in gambling and that can make them become addiction if no one remind them that playing gambling is dangerous for them.

Honestly, when I see a woman gambling and she's a really experienced player, I always feel a little sorry for her.  Even if she wins big sums and is truly a good player.  I just immediately understand that in her life, something is different from the life of an ordinary woman.  Most likely something went wrong for her.  And this changed her initially female psychology, aimed at love and the birth of children and their upbringing, as the main priority in a woman’s life.  Gambling is still, for the most part, a male activity, and a woman who joins such a male group of players herself becomes closer to men.  Therefore, it becomes a pity that a woman has moved away from the standard of ordinary female fate.
 But, of course, all women are different, there are those who, for example, want and love extreme sports, or are eager to fight in a real war.  But this is a general collapse of female psychology and this is their personal madness.

We do live in a world where women discrimination is existing on which there would really be having that kind of gender inequality kind of vibe on which this isnt something new anymore. We've seen that there would really be those words and criticisms that would really be said or given out just because its unusual for women to deal up with things which man is really that mainly been dominating in numbers.
Even myself would really be telling that women are really that highly emotional and they do love money and its really that unusual that you would really be able to see them getting involved with gambling
which we know that this do involves mostly on losing money. If ever we do see such increase in numbers then i dont really see something bad into that. We are free on whatever the things we do tend to
deal or having so.

It is really just that men are really judgmental into those things that unusually could be seen. We do know that once we do have the money to spend in gambling then anyone could freely be able to engage with it.
It is really just that its not really that common in numbers. Now that we are seeing such increase then so be it, there's no need for some further comments or something words as if they arent
allowed on doing it on the first place. We are all free on what we do and its our money then its our full control.

That is true, gambling is not gender specific, perhaps it was frown before though, that women should stay at the house and take care of their family. But it's a very different period already. Gone where the days that women chooses to stay behind. Women do want to make their own money to help the family as well same with their husband.


Perhaps it was also due to women is known to be risk averse, meaning they are build to not take a big risk. However, as we have observed, it's not that case any longer. Women is doing what the man is doing as well including gambling their money in casino's or whether online of offline. In if you go to traditional based gambling, you will see a lot of young women too, enjoying and playing and having some fun.

I also do not understand why we need to differentiate between men and women when we talk about gambling 
Gambling is not gender specific and it is not like men have more advantage in this as compared to women. Both men and women may have equal chances to win in gambling and also both men and women can be lucky or unlucky, hence no difference whatsoever.

Yes, men have more control over money as they are the ones responsible for earning money, so we can say that men have more opportunity to gamble as compared to women but there are no restrictions on the part of women. If a woman or girl is financially strong, she can gamble as and when she wants and no one has the right to stop her.
Also, I haven't seen any gender discrimination from the gambling sites and they welcome everyone to join and gamble on their platforms.

Well, you said it all in this last part of your post, back in the days when gambling started, there was no internet, and women were generally considered to be a lesser species to men, which means that, most things that men do in those days, women were not allowed to do them as most was considered a taboo, men were solely the bread winner of the family, so, it was primarily their responsibility to go out and get money with which he will buy food and also take care of other family needs, while the woman's duty was primarily to cook the food, do the washings, give birth to children and take care of them and so on.
And since it was man's responsibility to get money for the family, gambling, which was one way of making money was also reserved for men alone.

But coming back to this present century and our generation, civilization has changed alot of things, women are now considered bread winners as well, the bread winning for the family is no longer left to the man alone, so, this day, both men and women are hustling to make ends meet, and where ever the hustle takes the woman, be it gambling, it's still part of making ends meet.
This is possibly the reason why we today, see more women gamblers than before, and rest assured that the number of women In gambling will continue to increase as each day breaks.

Like it's so quite fascinating the number of female gamblers that has emegred this period, I don't really know the trigger, but I think everyone has the right to play with their money, but I don't see as quite the girly habit, shouldn't they go sing a song or play dance.

And more underaged gamblers are actually gambling without restrictions, even if it's against the law, all the y have to do is just lie about their age and they have a casino account, and they might not have developed a good character to help them not go to deep.

It's a nice development for the gambling sites owners and less stressful to those who find discomfort doing it physically but with time it has become flooded with underage and much more addictive since getting access is just from just a mobile. It's also a good thing women are not limited cause they might find fortune there, who knows.

The ease of accessing gambling websites nowadays certainly makes everyone very vulnerable to gambling, including women. It's true that women certainly have a lot of shame about going to casinos, by using smartphones they can now gamble without anyone knowing. When I researched the news regarding the number of male and female gamblers, it was a fact that female gamblers continued to increase every year. Men still dominate this activity, perhaps in some countries that prohibit gambling there are fewer women gamblers.

Currently, slot games have become one of the types of games that are most enjoyed by everyone. Personally, I have never seen women gambling in person, either land based gambling or online, but I see men very often. However, the presence of women in the world of gambling still exists, but it is not easy to detect them, except for those who visit special places such as casinos. With the background of women having greater shame than men, it is very difficult for us to recognize that they are gamblers.

Normally, women are more interested in anything that entertain than men, we can testify to this flashing back to our childhood memories but the reason why the case with gambling is different is because of money that is involved in the process. Although, the case of women gambling is not yet too common from this part of the world but I won't be so shocked if they are now showing more interest in it because it's their way.

As you said, social media is their nest and gambling is being advertise in almost all the medias this days, the chances of them being influenced is automatically high but I don't think they can keep low key for a long time due to the fragile nature of their heart. They can't bear too much risk as compared to us and the ones doing it in secrecy will have to open up one day.
