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

[paxmao]

When women play gambling, they already know the risks they will face, but women will think twice about going crazy at the gambling table, if women are still within normal limits, but if they are addicted, women will be the same as men and without shame they will say they lost ,
from my point of view with experiences that I see directly from my neighbors

The truth is that women were not as bold as men, they can't take the same level of risk as men do, they like making savings than spending or loosing to gambling, this may also be because they have always rely on men for their financial backups in most cases and also have weak or lower affinity fornany of the gambling related activities unlike men, women were known to have low tolerance for gambling or taking risk.

Women who gamble may already know the risk and are ready to face the risk,  but another question about that os that,  are women as risky as men,  because from research,  it shows that women are fewer risk takers compared to men and that can be true since women's position in the society and family os. Not for financial provisions which limit their risk exposure.

So that has affected the general perceptions toward risk at every point of the way and that is why some people have seen and said that women lack the boldness to risks in gambling compared to the male forks.

I would not call it boldness, because risk is not about boldness is about appraisal and assessment. I will explain: Risk is one of the things that humans are worst at predicting and that is specially true for men. I have seen many times how the wise voice comes from the women and the men ignore them to make massive mistakes in risk appraisal. I think this applies to betting perfectly.

Usually in a family dominance by husband as gambler and never see any wife spent their time with participating in gambling exactly many broken home happening due bad activities or gambling habit from husband and loss all their important thing from money, house, car and all property assets values.

Don't imagine with wife have gambling habit but lets make its on another position if husband have bad habit with gambling what happen with one family will in good relation or not.

First of all, in a normal and healthy relationship no party should be dominating. Both parties should support each other and each of them has its rights and duties. Secondly, gambling is not always a bad thing, it's supposed to be an entertainment activity. If it starts causing harms then it's the gambler's fault for not being able to control himself. This applies to both men and women.
I'm also curious why some members think that women are less risk takers than men! Are there any reliable studies which support such claims?

Well first off, be it men or women, there's isn't supposed to be a gender inequality when it comes to gambling. In some part of the world, women aren't allow to participate in most activities apart from being a wife and taking care of the family. Women who gambles are seen as useless or wife unworthy and no men would ever consider taking them as wife's. Gambling is supposed to be fun similar to playing a game on my mobile phone. If a woman choose to gambling online and she understands the risk involved, when to stop and sets a limit or avoid lost then I see no reason why she shouldn't gamble.

In every field in the world men as well as women have grate role. Women can do anything like what ever men can do. However, in some cases, women are kept somewhat socially restricted. In some places they are considered only as house maker. Due to which women cannot do any job. It is natural that women will be left behind, especially if women do not earn money and have to depend on men. But in all places where women are completely free, women are quite active in gambling along with men. If women get the equal opportunity they can do anything like men.

Of course it feels unfair if women are not allowed to gamble and only men are allowed to carry out gambling activities. Indeed, many people think it is bad if women gamble, but in my opinion, if women want to do it occasionally just for entertainment, of course it is not a problem as long as they don't waste money. The money is in gambling, the aim of gambling is to get pleasure, of course this can be done by women and men because they both want to experience entertainment.

Women who gamble cannot be called good housewives or not good wives. As husbands, they should understand that wives also want entertainment, but as good wives, they do it within reasonable limits and cannot just spend their husband's money, of course they will think smarter as a wife you definitely feel tired in carrying out your activities as a housewife and you don't feel like you have time to play outside so maybe by opening a casino platform they will do it just for entertainment.

     -   In these times, most of those who play gambling are men, and only a few are women. The only thing I don't like about the generation we have today is that I see influencers who are women promoting casino apps online on Facebook, deceiving viewers that they exist just to attract players and don't care if life is ruined, while others are unable to control themselves.

But as a matter of fact, these influencers are not really gambling, but they are always showing deception using the demo account. But there are others who are more disciplined than male gamblers.

Women may actually take less risk than men. Men can easily control themselves when they lose a gamble, but women don't seem to control themselves easily when they lose a gamble. Gambling is usually played for entertainment, but the goal is to make money. Although many people gamble for fun, most people gamble with the hope of winning money. Gambling definitely requires money. Gambling is very risky, gambling loses money and it is better not to gamble. Most of the women in the world do not gamble, those who gamble should gamble with a cool head. Care must be taken that a woman who gambles for fun does not become addicted to gambling. Where I live no women gamble, take other means of entertainment. It is better for women to stay away from gambling.

I already know that they don't gamble, that's why most of them are underage children who are sometimes influenced by them, on average influencers who usually stream playing games suddenly promote gambling and their viewers are minors who watch it so they follow it and gamble, that's what it is. What is very regrettable is that influencers currently only think about making money from gambling platform collaborations without thinking about the dangers of their audience gambling.

I see a lot of underage children in my country gambling because influencers, gamers who promote gambling sites, including well-known artists, also promote gambling sites, even though gambling sites are illegal in my country. I always remind them that these influencers are not active gambling players. only play games that have been regulated by the gambling site so that it is not too much of a demo game and looks like you are playing real gambling. it is easy to do to attract the interest of the audience.

The thing is that,  in my country,  women are seen as home managers and even in governments they are given special positions that don't expose them to the kind of risk that men are exposed to and at the same time also if a woman becomes so involved in gambling there is the possibility that she may get abused by the male forks and that the reason why no man will allow his wife to become a gambler in the first place unlike men who can gamble and they wife will not feel insecure since she knows that he is safe having fun.

And another thing that we should look at is the level of responsibility placed on every individual in the sense that,  men are faced with more responsibility than women and at some point, men will always have to take the most risk compared to women so this also are reasons why there is inequality in some judgement as regards those things.

Women will consider it first before deciding. Often, they take longer than men. And they also don't dare to take big risks, which makes women always careful in their actions. This is different from men who seem to be in a hurry to decide everything so that men will be at greater risk than women. But not all men are like that because there are men who can also be careful in deciding things. And because it is gambling, perhaps fewer women will gamble than men because of the fear of experiencing big losses in gambling for women.

And it's a different world now. Women have good jobs because they really worked hard for them. Some of them have even better jobs than men. Some are bosses and some have high reputations in one place. The government is also filled with women now. They have the money so they have the luxury to do what they want with their money. I don't think men see women as useless wives when they gamble anymore. Some do view it as a sexy thing. I love watching poker highlights replays with a woman against a man and how she will topple him. Then, they actually have a better poker face than men.
I believe the era of women being viewed as not equal is long gone. Kids today don't even care about those things anymore because they can now see that both parents are working hard for their future.
So there will come a time when all this inequality thing about women will be gone.

I don't agree with the generalization that women always pay attention to expenses and women are always considered responsible for expenses, even though this factor depends on the individual. I even noticed that many women are very wasteful in managing their finances, they buy expensive things and even things they rarely use.

However, if the comparison scale is towards gambling then I agree with the opinion that women always calculate the expenses in every bet, statistically the female gender is less involved in gambling activities, they may not be interested in bets that do not guarantee a profit, they like realistic income from other jobs .

[bittraffic]

Not happening because it's a matter of pride for a man. Would you accept a woman shouting at you demanding you to clean the toilet?  I doubt this especially if they do it right in front of your friends like they mock you at your expense. Because they wanna show who is the boss in the house.

Yes. its a different world and OP took it to another level like which kind of woman is fit to be a wife. Whether a  woman just playing slot which is based on luck or a woman who plays poker which is a skill-base. It's a wonder if OP will ever pick one but consider one and you both stay together for a long time.  Wouldn't it be fun to see your woman play games?

We know that each man does have their own criteria and preference on what their partners or wife should really be and not all would really be that liking on seeing them do both gamble on which it would really be just that so normal that there might be some who do really just simply agree nor like for them to see both husband and wife would really be doing gambling thing but there are ones who do really much preferred on going solo or much preferred that they would really be the one who wants really like to play and getting out the involvement of neither of his wife and other family members.
They do know the risks and its really just that normal that they would really be having that kind of considerations on the time that they would really be making out such gambling activity.
Women and men doesnt really have difference when it comes on being lucky because no matter what the gender you do have then both things could really be just that so equal  when it comes to
odds or being lucky on the time that they do play.It is really just that people on the  casino arent really that get used to on seeing women into these vicinity and this is why it do really looks
odd that there would be someone who would be playing.

I agree on your first statement, women can bought expensive things which sometimes not really part of the budget, they just want to have it to fill the pleasure but the needs on such things is not necessary, I guess in terms of budgeting for house needs women most of the time are in-charge and they really good covering whatever the amount their husband provide for the family.

Though, inside gambling, men are more aggressive and most of the time can handle that pressure to the point that they are willing to risk everything, compared with women they are not that willing to gamble all -in unless they already attached or already addicted.

Your point is genuine but it only happens in selective climes, you always need to generalise things so that you don't confuse people. Good, women are being restricted somewhere, but is it in all places? In places that don't have any restrictions like my country, you will hardly hear that a woman gambles, the percentage is very low, but it might be more in other countries.

This is why you have to establish your point based on where women and men have the same rights. Fine, women are gambling as well but their population is far lower than that of men. They are different beings that are mostly fragile in thought even though some of them are stronger than men in heart/mind. They do not see life the way men often see it or approach it the same way which is why lower women gamble compared to men.

There is a widespread belief that women spend less than men and are more financially wise. There is nothing to confirm this belief in a way that includes all aspects of life. It can be said that this is a conclusion from simple minds thinking from a very narrow point of view. They most likely conclude this because it is certain that men are much more involved in gambling than women, but this has nothing to do with women's ability to act wisely with regard to finances. In an opposite example, there is the phenomenon of extravagant shopping, in which women top all indicators due to the increasing rates of women’s demand to buy clothes and makeup.

[bayu7adi]

If a woman choose to gambling online and she understands the risk involved, when to stop and sets a limit or avoid lost then I see no reason why she shouldn't gamble.

A category of women who truly engage in gambling purely for the sake of amusement is when they indulge in enjoyable games such as Sweet Bonanza, slot games, or roulette. These games are easier to play and don't require any specific skills to win. Just press a button, and the outcome is randomly generated. These are truly games of luck that are suitable for women with low levels of gambling addiction.

If a woman plays poker or blackjack, it genuinely indicates that her gambling skills are no longer at a novice level. I'm concerned for women who enter the realm of poker because they may find it difficult to control themselves when in a casino. Indeed, witnessing intelligent women is quite delightful, but I don't refer to intelligence in the context of card games at the casino table.

Women can gamble on anything, but I prefer women who gamble just for the sake of playing slots or other simple games. I assume such indications reflect a genuine enjoyment of gambling rather than an addiction.

Perhaps that's what you see in your environment, and it's different from what I see in my environment because where I live, women always think about and try to be responsible for their expenses. They are not wasteful in spending their money, especially shopping online, because they know that nowadays things are difficult and making money is difficult. So they have to always calculate or manage their expenses every day.

And I also rarely see women gambling, but I don't know if they gamble online. However, it does not rule out the possibility that women could become more wasteful because these possibilities can be experienced by everyone, including men and women.

Well, sorry to partially disagree with you mate, I am actually a married man and based on my own personal experience with women, i sure agree that women are more financially wise than men, trust me, this is the simple truth even though its or may be hard to believe.
This is not to say that there are no extravagant women out there, who spend money any how without thinking, but speaking from general statistics, women sure are more conservative when when it comes to finances, compared to men in general.

Coming back to gambling, you sure will also agree with me that, women are much more better gamblers than men, at least, for the fact that many of us have not seen a woman who is addicted to gambling is a proof to the fact that women know how to manage money in gambling better than men.

You disagree with me based on conclusions you drew from your own experience and not based on accurate sources. There are no accurate statistics, whether in the field of behavioral psychology or economic psychology, that study these comparisons between the desires of women and the desires of men.
Regarding gambling, statistics can be done if all (or most) gambling companies agree to provide data on the percentage differences between genders, which will enable us to reach several results, such as spending habits and favorite games. But of course, this data is only available in the form of small samples that are not suitable for conducting a detailed study.
