There is already a topic like this... Roll Eyes

Nerds are stereotypically male. Nerds are most likely to be bitcoin early adopters. No conspiracy here.

No need to be an alien. There are many transgender (if the point is one's gender not being in the list) and intersex (if the point is one's sex not being in the list) people out there. I'm sure they'd appreciate not being called "aliens".

It might start as one, but when the day comes it's possible to buy a pair of expensive shoes with it will be the day I encrypt my wallet Cheesy

The previous thread about gender on this forum ended up like a collection of sexist jokes and clichés. I hope the same won't happen with this one.

there is no patriarchy within the bitcoin community... why the dominance of men... could it be that men are, in general, interested in different things to women?

One off NP-Hard.

Right now it is, but why end up?

This is the main one.
https://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=2164.0

There are some more (which you can find with a trivial search on 'gender').

General conclusion is that early adopters and risk takers (in any sector) are most commonly male. There are some females around, though.

Yeah I just talked about this in that other thread. Seems like some people think if we create a high heels and astrology store, it will be an instant chick magnet. I suggest only selling heels that are slightly shorter than typical, so we won't get too many short/underage girls. Actually no... that would scare away the Asians. Hmmmmm. This is hard.
