Why the hell should we care about women in bitcoin space?

[ChuckBuck]

Hmm...seems there is a good amount of women in the Bitcoin space.

Perianne Boring:



Connie Gallippi:




Elizabeth Ploshay:



Blythe Masters, formerly of JPM Morgan:



Elizabeth Rossiello:




Just to name a few....

I have seen a large thrust in the US to get rid of any amount of being a man that they can find.

Every sitcom shows the man as a dope who just needs to get out of the way while the woman handles things.

The idea that a new industry can be dominated by capable men goes counter to the storyline and needs to be squashed.

I am so glad that it is a big world and not all women are American.

How many women were involved in the creation of the internet in the mid to late 80's and early 90's? It's unfortunate, but that's the way it goes in the tech world, it's very male dominated.

It is about taking away the idea that we are individuals, but instead that we belong to some sort of "group".

We are all individuals, and we also all belong to the group sentient beings of Earth, which is a tiny subset of the group Life. Both our longstanding individuality and our nascent collective bonds as citizens of Earth should be respected and preserved.

I am tired and annoyed of reading articles telling there is no women in bitcoin space..

Why are people writing articles like this?

if women are busy watching tv  let them watch..

Are we all feminist? 

Those who have what it takes to be involved in bitcoin, do get involved like Blyth masters, and do we complain about that?

are women going to solve the blocksize debate?

are they going to take bitcoin mainstream?

why the hell should we care about women in bitcoin space?

Lol, actually no one care about woman in bitcoin.
But when someone asking is there any woman on bitcoin, there's u will know that we curious is there any woman there.

If you are not smart enough to understand that half the world is female and they tend to spend the most in kinda 3/4 human households you either have no clue how the world became so full with the human kind or you probably think only man got the planet this far.

But you can be happy, woman will not invade the crytpo coin world Soon (tm)
They want nothing todo with this so easy (NOT) and usefull boy toy (unless the boy tells her she get 10.000 bucks a piece for them and then she yells sell that crap now so i can buy new shoes, dress, lingerie)

People love to just ignore the fact that many women are into Bitcoin already....There were pictures in this very thread too. lol

On the other hand bitcoin world seems to care quite much about Africa in bitcoin space

I have never seen anybody to wonder why the hell does somebody care about Africa?

What is it in women that riles up strong objections if somebody considers their existence or validity, but on the other hand Africa is welcomed with open arms and discussed with nobody objecting?

[altcoinex]

Because men like women...

[ab8989]

Because men like women...

That is only part of it. The other part is that nerds hate women.

People ignoring the visual and hard evidence that show many women are already involved in Bitcoin are stuck in the "Status Quo" mode.  Some people like to see what they see and hear what they hear only.

People living true equality don't bring up the gender in the first place. If you care what gender someone has, you're the sexist, not us.

Fucking feminazis.

Edit: Bringing the distribution of men and women to 50:50 everywhere is complete bullshit. What's important is that someone who wants to pursue a certain interest can actually do so. Forcing a 50:50 balance regardless of interests and factual differences of the genders is what's wrong with this false feminism these days.

So someone running a Bitcoin business is female? Good, what does it matter? Bitcoin is an interest pursued mostly by men? Gee, that must mean it's an endeavor that men somehow find more interesting than women do. Doesn't mean women are oppressed from pursuing it.

False feminists keep preaching sexism while the reality is that women can do what they want already. It just so happens that their interests are actually different because the genders are actually different, physically and neurologically. You can't preach that away. Fucking feminazis.

Edit: I re-read that, were you referring to others? (sorry for my orginal post if so) I'd agree some people are just never going to get past the need to say "women," (meaning all) instead of "many women," which is actually accurate.

[umaOuma]

There is no need to spend time in thinking that why women are not in bitcoin space. Women are not aware about the bitcoin yet they are simply busy in hanging around with friends watching telvesion etc etc. so let them do that in what they are the best and there is no concerned with gender when it comes to bitcoin community.

I don't ignore that. I suppose you are "ignant," trying to argue against me by putting words into my mouth.

I was responding to bronan, who said there were no women in bitcoin, when there is proof against that here, in this thread. I wasn't discussing whether or not there should be more or if they should stick to the status quo or not.

I was supporting your post, dude, not calling you ingnant.

I'm the one that put the images of the many successful and accomplished women in the Bitcoin space.

Yeah, I just re-read your post and edited mine. It was a little ambiguous, sorry I didn't catch the true meaning the first time.

(It sounded to me like you were saying the women were stuck in the "status quo" instead of the men who don't believe women are into bitcoin.)

[RodeoX]

There are a lot of women in bitcoin now. But you won't see them here with the misogynistic nutaratti.

This ^^^

I'm sure most of the women who have checked this forum out have seen the sexist comments. And most of them have either left or have hidden their gender from their profile.

[nerFohanzo]

I think involvement of women in bitcoin space will make a huge difference in bitcoin community. Their involvement in bitcoin will have a great impact in increasing the community as a whole and the value of and the size of bitcoin will rise up.

[Pentax]

I don't.  I figure that will take care of itself over time.

In general there are less female gamers, there are less females in a host of fields.  Who knows why, and I'm not going down the road of trying to figure it out.

Over time, this works itself out.

Females represent approximately 50% of the global population. Sure would increase the chances of mainstream adoption if a good chunk of them were "into it".

That pretty much is the reason right there.
Remember GEMZ? The mobile messenger that rewards users for using it with "Gemz". http://getgems.org/
It was really marketed toward female instant message users on iphones and etc, since they tend to use messaging apps more then men.
Currently Gemz going rate is around 6000 sat, which I don't know if is good or bad. (Not following it).
It was an interesting idea, to introduce women into the crypto world, but my understanding is it didn't really work.

GetGems for iOS just got released today, the feature where the whole app is about (advertisement model) is not implemented yet. I'm waiting for some iOS bug fixes and i will definitly introduce some girls to the app.
