Gender in Gambling [differences between Women and Men in Gambling]

[maydna]

I don’t know how exactly this data was collected so I can’t be too dismissive of it, but I tend to think that there probably isn’t such a big difference between men and women when it comes to gambling. Sure, I’ve heard Men have more addictive personalities, but when it comes to gambling styles I would hesitate to base things on sex.

You are right, there is likely not much difference from men and women in gambling, aside the fact that we have way more men gambling than women, and this probably have made the whole thing look as if men are more and easily addicted to gambling than women do...

The same way we see so many men who are addicted to gambling on the streets, maybe so also we would have been seeing addicted women as well, if the number of women in gambling is the same, or even slightly close to the number of men in gambling.

That means both men and women have something in common to be addicted, which will depend on how they use gambling. If they use gambling as entertainment and stay within limits, they will be fine and vice versa. Men and women can both experience gambling addiction, but maybe we hear less about women who experience gambling addiction than news about men who are addicted to gambling. So to find out the exact number, maybe there should be further research in all countries that allow gambling and giving questionnaires to men and women, especially for those who often play gambling, so there is information about the total number of men and women who play gambling.

Typically, Most people feels like gambling is majorly designed for men because men would have the ability to condone failure and works hard and harder to earn money so they would have enough to spend either for necessary or unnecessary pleasures.

Men are seemed more skillful and knowledgeable in an adventurous system and they could have the ability to easily let go burdens while women are at the opposite.
Gambling is a risky game meant for who is ready to accept loosing and winning.
 Before a man gets to the board of gambling he has already accepted if he fails he fails and if he wins he wins but women are like not worthy to accept loosing but to win.

Gambling is a wrecking game yes but men has the ability to minimize or control their volume on the rate of gambling while women are under control of the gambling table because they could go extra mile at a point just to get what to stake in other to win or recover their lost.

If women would have the same eagerness as the men in the gambling, then the woman is tantamount to be wrecked to her bottom where she isn't in control of her self anymore. Everything becomes magical to them at that gambling moment keeping them the feelings of hopelessness with the thoughts of not worth to live just after loosing.
While men could walk away hoping for another day to strike back to win with a more tactical strategies.

And in an overview, Most people feels women who gambles are irresponsible and shameless because they feels it's a game of the fittest strictly for men.

I do not think so that if we had more numbers of women in gambling than men that we still see them addicted, in the first place we won't see more numbers of women above men in gambling because there are particular ways of life expected by the sex of persons. Gambling is already a dominated area by men just like the society ascribed prostituting to women. No hard feelings to the women folks but growing up I have known women being the ones known with such "trades" even though it is the men who patronize them. This is the way the society is but we could just see a little changes here and there which would be known as an aberration to the norm.

Undoubtedly, there is no difference for luck, who is in the place of the gambler. Be it a woman, a man, or even a dog. In gambling (with the possible exception of card games, where you still have to use your brain) there is no need to possess any special physical or mental abilities. The casino doesn't care who the player is and the probability of winning is the same for everyone. Truly, this is the only place in the world where everyone can be equal.

As for addiction, I've heard the opposite, that women are more prone to it. How many people - so many opinions. As long as it is impossible to prove or disprove without proper research, everything remains at the level of rumors and speculation.

Well, I know where you're coming from, but gambling isnt as equal as it appears. Although statistically correct, the concept that everyone has an equal chance misses many of life's complexities. People have varied financial strengths. For some, losing a bet is a mere setback; for others, its a life-changing calamity. Addiction is dangerous for both men and women. I've seen men and women slip into gambling addiction. The excitement, the adrenaline, the frenzied pursuit of lost bets - its a terrible state.

Scientifically, addiction is personal. Psychological traits matter more than gender stereotypes. We should defend women, not judge them, even if they're more prone. Lets get rid of our prejudices.

Nobody can impose gambling to anyone or generalise the stuff that gambling is specifically meant for female gender neither male gender, I will say that with my basic understanding in gambling everyone is authorised to participate in gambling both male gender and female gender,  why most of us think female hates gambling is because the numbers of male participating in gambling is higher than the female who is in gambling in open place, I have seen women who plays pool consistently than male, so women love gambling but the problem is that their husband's doesn't give them the privilege to partake in gambling always

Yeah, we can't generalize that, there are people who seems to be prone to this venue of entertainment not just men but also women are capable, no gender differences as gambling is open for all, it's all matter with how a person choosing his passion, we can't remove that from women to also be attracted in playing and gambling their money, though it's not usual or it's not the big percentage but there are women inside casinos both online and offshore we can see or we will see the presence of women gambler.

Not in gender, but it is the desire that the person wanted to please inside. Both women and men have it and once women allow that lust, you will see them playing to the point that they can engage deeper and end up being addicted.

It is an opinion that I think most ordinary people think, in the world we live in depending on the area where we are living there are certain customs where the woman is alive as someone who should be at home, raising children, cooking and the only right to have she has to have fun is with her husband, and if they see her in a casino it's the right thing to do, but because they start saying that she fell into vices, that she's doing bad things, while the man is rewarded with things like saying that he can do what he I wish and it looks good, yes, a man can do grotesque things and society accepts it and they like it, but a woman who goes to a casino and wins, loses no matter what, has the right and shouldn't look bad, as women tend not to spend money on fun and other things yes, but it is not something that should determine everything.

Yeah, it's really hard to accurate says that the survey is correct or if there is a big difference between men and women in general. And I'm not sure why machismo is included in the first place, I also see men hiding from their loses and not telling everyone the whole trust as far as losing big money as compare to women who might be doing the same.

Same when you win big games, you definitely gonna tell the whole world about it, same with women. I think in gambling, we really can't see the difference in gender as far as winning or losing, even if it is slot or luck base games or skills base games like poker.

Your explanation is very correct and easy to understand.
I understand what you are saying that women have different thoughts from men in terms of spending money and women will prefer to spend their money to go somewhere to buy clothes or buy food and men do not have such thoughts.
In terms of controlling women's emotions, they also think more realistically that it would be better if the money was used for their needs rather than for gambling.
From this it is very clear that out of 100% of female gamblers only 10% and 90% of men

The only difference between men and women when it comes to gambling is the quantity, you can barely find women gamblers anywhere in the world, I know there are, but they are not as many as men in gambling spaces and that is because men tend to like gambling and taking risks more than women, there is nothing about sex or anything but it's simply a matter of personal choices and preferences of different men and women but the nature of women is mainly against gambling.

If we talk about gambling styles, if I talk about my personal experience, I've mostly seen women playing slots more than any other gambling game, the reason for that might be because it's easy to play and has engaging graphics, etc. And one reason could also be that slot games usually give big multipliers.

[LUCKMCFLY]

In some countries women are believed to have a slightly complicated money management or you could call it more stringent in holding money.
From this we can understand that it is difficult for women to gamble because she will always calculate in detail the money that must be spent for everyday life so there is no thought of gambling.
On the other hand, female gamblers will prefer slot games because this game is quite easy to do, just pressing the spin button and waiting for luck, unlike poker games, which have to use some complicated strategies.

Lol, that's something you have to be very tactful when saying it, women tend to be very delicate when it comes to issues like this, but you're right, we can intuit that, although there are some women who wow I admire the way they manage money Personally, I manage the money, but I cannot deny that my wife is always aware of things, it is very difficult because women generally always memorize all things and never forget them, and anything that It is done wrong, they emphasize it every time they can, as for the casino, because I don't know how they can face the movement of the casino.

But some people always make an emphasis of this but I don't know their reason and faith or a research they perform that proof that gambling is meant for only the female, even though you take to law court I will still give my suggestion for gambling not being a game of male gender only, because their is no where or any way that it pass into world constitution that female gender is restricted to partake in gambling, or a law state Categorically that male gender will continue participate in the gambling until eternity, such law does not exist, it because of our personal reasoning that differentiate female and male in gambling, a gambling is general game any one participate

[danadc]

Whatever it is, there's no need to find out more about who gambled from the two, so far I also rarely see women playing gambling to make a living, unless she's really not a good woman maybe she's a gambler, most women are more busy with social their media compared to playing online gambling. 

Women are not really associated with gambling yes, there are some areas of life that are known with some sex. So if you are a woman and you gamble alot or even openly, there is a way that the society see such woman like they are usually labelled bad but this is not the same with the male counterparts. A man that gambles may not be seen as bad but women could be seen that way. Moreso, regarding to men, a man who also gambles a lot but takes good care of his family is also looked differently by the society compared to that man who only gambles without taking care of the home but behaves irresponsible. It is just about what the society perceive about the standards of gambling.

The Woman and the man are Responsible for their actions, when Talking about a home, it is a man and a woman, if they are together they can do their activities, but if they begin to see that Things are not going well for them, then the Responsibilities begin for the The Game is Different, first because the first gesture they take is to arrive late, and Sometimes they arrive under the Influence of alcohol and that is a very bad example for the children, and it is truly a grotesque act, on the part of the woman too, I I am one of those who think that both men and women for the game as for any activity should be equal in both ways, both have Responsibility and the majority of the community around the world blames the hoppmbres who are vicious for being in a casino, sometimes the Society is in charge of damaging or Destroying the image of people by doing what they like , and it is not like that.

Right, perhaps the only difference between male and female gamblers is a matter of numbers. at least, gambling is more dominated by men. However, I can't measure or analyze it for other countries. because, besides I have no data. Also, each country will have different customs depending on other factors and so on. but if you refer to psychology, it is clear that there are differences between men and women, especially regarding gambling.

men, tend to like things that are fun as well as challenging and one of them is gambling. women, usually more antipathy and always think more specifically about what they like. but in today's modern era, everyone doesn't need to visit a land casino if they have fun with it. it doesn't matter male or female, all of them can access online casino without being noticed.
In some Asian countries, women are often involved in gambling. some, become part of the culture for them.
well, we had a similar experience. for me, the phenomenon of women playing slot gambling is not something new. in fact, some people I know also like slot-type games. the reason, as you said. simply put, slot games are easier to play.

It's a stereotypical way of seeing women that they are less educated and more inclined towards mysticism and stuff like that. For the last hundred years, or so, women are getting the same education as men in many countries and they are no different than men in those places, and there are more and more of such places in the world. I believe soon the question of differences between Women and Men in Gambling will be absolutely irrelevant.

In this era, almost all countries around the world have the same civilization regarding women and men, even for education a woman is not far behind from men.
But sometimes status and culture differentiate between women and men.
For gambling itself there is no difference between the two, so assuming that men are superior is also not the right thing because there are not a few women out there who have become quite reliable professional gamblers.
I don't know why there are still questions like this which in my opinion are actually not quite right because they can be the start of a debate.

Yeah, with the civilization around the world most of it already have an equal rights. Both women and men can do things accordingly, but I agree also with your statement about religions and the country origins it's also affects those gamblers, as from some conservative places they still practicing that women can't be seen in places like this or they still have that discrimination when women has been a spot in the casinos.

religious matter will not affect the gender issue because if the religion banned gambling it is both Men and women so maybe there are no truly difference in the data , but the origin matters and that is correct because in many countries and beliefs that there are things that only for men and they discourage if not prohibit women to act on that matter and yes gambling is one of those.

Nobody can impose gambling to anyone or generalise the stuff that gambling is specifically meant for female gender neither male gender, I will say that with my basic understanding in gambling everyone is authorised to participate in gambling both male gender and female gender,  why most of us think female hates gambling is because the numbers of male participating in gambling is higher than the female who is in gambling in open place, I have seen women who plays pool consistently than male, so women love gambling but the problem is that their husband's doesn't give them the privilege to partake in gambling always

yes there is mate , and that is some community or origin or at least policy , i have learn from the past there there are still civilization that never allow women to gamble but only women , but of course this is from isolated places only.

Women all over the world have now brought themselves to the same level as men in almost all occupations. In almost every field of education, medicine, research and discovery, women are now playing an equal role with men. As such, women are also involved in gambling. But currently the percentage of women is low but I think it is increasing day after day. In countries where gambling is legal, women are now as widely involved in gambling as men. Women are now playing an important role not only in gambling but in every sector. Therefore, there should be no distinction between men and women at this stage.

After all, there is no point in discriminating between women and men either in the gambling industry or in social circles.
I myself admit that in every deficiency of a man there will definitely be advantages possessed by women, for example, me and my sister where in casino games she doesn't know it at all but for some sports matches such as basketball, volleyball or cricket she actually have more understanding and insight that is far above me so that if I bet on these sports matches maybe I will lose to the sister that I have.
But back again that the point of view will differ depending on the status and culture in each country or region of residence.
