The shocking rate of women interested in gambling.

[agustina2]

I don't understand how it became shocking and surprising to see the growing number of women who were interested in gambling. Gambling is for everyone regardless of gender. In the first place, women are not prohibited to be involved in gambling. It's just that women are not used to being involved in gambling but generation changes as we progress.

Gambling can be considered as a form of entertainment whether online gambling or physical gambling. When we say entertainment, it also includes social community and everyone is welcome to join. Let's normalize already that in today's gambling, more women will be involved, not to compete with the number of men but that's how social interaction works.

[jossiel]

With so much data that are on the internet, it's very accessible to get into online casinos. And I'd just stop the argument that what men can do, can't be done by women.

We're on a different era where there's no more gender bias and there's now equality to what we do depending on the setup of each man and woman.

That's why if we're into gambling, no doubt that there are women that are also into it. It's not just highlighted because the gambling industry is dominated by men, same as the others. But I wouldn't think of any differences because this is a different time that almost no restriction to what a free country allows to let men and women do whether in gambling, or etc.

[hyudien]

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.

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.

We must admit that today's children are smarter than their parents, especially when it comes to technology. Cell phones are their daily bread, and they know how to use all the features on their smartphones. So to just eliminate the traces on their cell phones to not get caught by their parents, then it's something easy. But is it when children are smarter than parents, parents don't supervise them? I think not, it depends on how assertive parents are to educate their children.
Even if they can't find anything suspicious on the cell phone, then they can find it from their children's habits. For example, from their snacking habits, I think from there we should know how much money they will use for snacks. And when they don't spend the money they are given, but they don't have any savings then it is suspicious. Because from some experiences I have seen a child is willing not to snack for the sake of saving money and they will use the savings to buy features in a game. So maybe that will also happen if they are familiar with gambling.

I believe the same, as long as one is an adult that is earning their own money they can choose to gamble if they want, anything else is secondary, and while I will admit that during the instances in which I gambled at a regular casino, most of their clients were men, at the same time the number of women there were high as well, and no one was impressed or alarmed by all the women that spent their time gambling at the casino and enjoying themselves.

[ethereumhunter]

It is better to educate them on the dangers of gambling instead of taking hard steps to placing restrictions as it may cause the children to really want to attempt it by doing it secretly.

Yes, educate children is a must for parents so they will stay away from gambling, especially if their country prohibit gambling. With good educations and always takes care their children, parents will make sure that they are doing their best for their children.

Besides children, gambling now reach women and attract them to visit a gambling site. As we know that online gambling is easily to access, women, children, men are playing gambling, even if their country doesn't allow gambling. That can increase the number of addicted people to gambling if no education from the government and family. The government can show ads how dangerous gambling for someone with the affect that the other people around a gambler can get.

[DubemIfedigbo001]

 Also the rate at which women are now picking interes in gambling is so alarming, there are a good number of female punters on the media with good fanbase and they give good betting advice, we all know that gambling does guarantee 100% success but if you follow their predictions you could get atleast 60 to 70% chances of winning the bet. That's to tell you how well women are now involving in gambling and as time passes there's a tendency for more women to indulge in it as well, since the social media have made gambling more popular and the fact that it involves sporting activities makes that more possible.

I kind of agree with you on this, Females gamble very much nowadays and the funny thing is that you would not see them in physical casinos which makes it look as though they don't have much interest in it, most of them stay undercover of online casinos. I remember a school mate of mine in my university days. She doesn't go a single day without placing various football bets and she was very good in analyzing games that you would think she is male. She wins regularly too and most times buys me beer with her wins.

I have encountered a lot of female gamblers as friends both in the past and present, but one thing I don't understand is that they don't get this so addicted that they throw in all funds into it unlike me when I was an addict, you'll hear them saying that they don't have money to place bets today, or that its only their feeding funds that they have left and so on. I think it's their natural management instincts that has always played out in their involvements in gambling as they are always very cautious of going broke.

[Lannakosa]

Yes, educate children is a must for parents so they will stay away from gambling, especially if their country prohibit gambling. With good educations and always takes care their children, parents will make sure that they are doing their best for their children.

The government can show ads how dangerous gambling for someone with the affect that the other people around a gambler can get.

For children this is not so sufficient, because often you need to deposit money in some way, and this can be done for a teenager but not for a child.

For women, gambling has always been just as accessible as for men, but I can judge by my social circle, and I see that for women it’s no more than buying a lottery, that’s where all the excitement ends for them, so I can conclude that for women, gambling is not as important as for men, women will spend money on beauty salons, it is a more enjoyable activity for them.

It is no longer a necessity but it has become an obligation for parents to educate and direct their children in the right direction such as telling and directing about what is good to do and what should not and should be avoided in any case and not just about gambling.

The worry is that yes, now gambling is increasingly widespread and reaches all ages, especially children, in my opinion, one of the things that makes all this happen is because now is the digital era where we can find everything just by making the internet, there are many positive and negative things or information that we can get there and maybe gambling is included in something negative, all of this is out of control because it is now the era and it is very difficult for us individually to prohibit all negative things from being displayed or displayed on the internet such as gambling promotions, if you do not want your child to experience the adverse effects of gambling then obviously the solution is that you must take good care of all their activities, meaning by putting a lot of restrictions so that they do not reach gambling, and actually all of these restrictions must be done and applied by everyone and not just children because the problem of impact is likely to be the same.

I agree with your statement.

Gambling is an act whereby anyone can participate. Class, sex, or race are irrelevant factors that determine the amount of people that are going to try and participate in the said games. I guess the biggest factor on why most people have participated more compared to the past are the advertisements being scattered around all social media platforms and the opportunity that the pandemic brough in shifting activities mostly online.

Parents have the vital role of creating an environment that avoids all sorts of influences. They have the responsibility and degree of control to at least minimize exposure of their children to any vices especially during the crucial years of their peak curiosity. If children are curious especially if left unsupervised, then they have the tendency to visit and attempt activities that are meant for adults, and this includes gambling as well.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

I don’t think it’s a gender based issue. All types of gambling is far more accessible now than it used to be. The rise of the internet obviously goes hand in hand with an increase in access to gambling because of online casinos and sportsbooks, dice etc.

Before somebody would have to go to a physical bookie or casino but now you can do it from the comfort of your own home. All reputable bookies, casinos and online gambling platforms advocate responsible gambling. You can also set limits so really it is the responsibility of us, the punters to budget well and control our gambling habits.

[Aanuoluwatofunmi]

Maybe we should leave women in doing what they are best at which is in taking care of the house just as we the men cant proof that we can do their role more at home than they can, gambling is generally common with men, just few women engage in doing that, women don't really have time for things like this, especially when the risk involved is taking money away in their hands, they would rather prefer earning through businesses than in gambling.

The female gamblers you mention are not unusual. They're your unexpected reality check. Strategy, discipline, and a more nuanced risk understanding matter, not gender. Their "natural management instincts"? My friend, that's nurture, not nature. Society educates women to be cautious and resourceful. They use these lessons elsewhere, including gaming. And it works. You and others like you enter into addiction headfirst, yet they balance danger and responsibility

This doesn't mean women gamble less. They approach it with pragmatism that more men might use. Before you admire their "undercover" tactics, consider yourself: who's smarter?

[Kelvinid]

Numbers are growing but the probability of winning is just the same as with men. Maybe you are thinking OP that women are good at making predictions/bets but there is no proof to support such a claim. Gambling is about more on luck, of course, we can't buy such saying that women are more lucky than men.

It was just the number, not the winning rate IMO. We may see a lot of women in the casino but guess what, not all of them are gamblers, they are just joining their partners and enjoying life in the casino. In general, men and women are equal in gambling --some are too lucky, some are not as well. No data to support that women are better at gambling, maybe in some areas, fields, or offices.

[Huppercase]

Are we shocked and flabbergasted with this recent turnup of women in gambling? Like have we not seen how passionate women are with football and other sports? No, these is common trend everywhere majorly in the Europe part of the world and many other continents where football are been played. The gambling aspect could be because they have been hiding it and they aren't extra high drive with gambling like the way men are, they are not taking it too personal when they lose that's why you don't see cases of addictions been reported like the male gamblers.

Another angle of this increase in numbers is unemployment rate and inflation, when people are hungry and don't have opportunity to make money, the next thing that comes to their mind is alternative to make money which of course so many people see gambling as. We have increased in number of not only women but even the kids that aren't kids which I personally see as bad thing, the government need to take right measures to fight inflations in where it's affected and provide jobs opportunities with better pay to make people remove eyes completely from gambling since people are doing it to make money.

[someone703]

The casino scene is getting a major makeover, and guess who's calling the shots? Women! Forget the old days when they were just waitresses or spectators. Nowadays, they're the ones pulling up chairs and placing their bets.

Why the change? It's a mix of things, like a good poker hand. First, the whole "equality for all" thing means women are calling the shots with their own money, free to spend it on whatever they want, be it shopping sprees, world tours, or even a spin of the roulette wheel.

Second, the internet has dealt everyone a winning hand. Online gambling is open to anyone, anywhere, and that includes women who might not be comfortable in a traditional casino setting. Plus, it's anonymous, so no judgment calls.

Finally, society's finally playing fair. The stigma against female gamblers is fading, and the industry itself is even throwing out special offers and promotions to attract them. Like, who can resist a ladies' night at the poker table?

[asyakashi]

It seems like this is already common, seeing women gambling, and it cannot be denied because more and more women are becoming gamblers every day, and I see that it is natural because in this day and age everything can be accessed easily, it's just up to us to prevent it. especially our family

[Odusko]

Why should  women be limited to domestic works and respsiibitiy alone or you have you not hard the slogan that whatever a man can do a woman can also do same or even more, so we shouldn't think in that line of thought that women should only involve themselves in domestic responsibility alon, we are in a global adaptation era and anyone with a basic skill can do whatever it placed before them and that is why, women have taken some roles in the society that are aside the domestic domain that many take it to be for women.
This day, women are beginning to dive into so many things, like politics sports, and gambling as we are discussing in this thread.
Women have no prohibition against them not to gamble so for that it shouldn't cause any concern for us at any point

I agree. I believe this perspective stems from antiquated notions still lingering in certain traditional circles and frankly, outdated cultures.  However, the notion that women belong solely in domestic roles is long outdated. 

Throughout history, women have demonstrated extraordinary aptitude across industries when given the opportunity.  From running businesses to leading armies, history is overflowing with examples of women kicking butt in every sphere imaginable.  Today's world provides greater possibilities for women to pursue passions in realms once reserved for men. 

Gambling among responsible adults is a personal choice, regardless of gender and  in the 21st century, women continue shattering glass ceilings across sports, politics academia and business ventures of all kinds.  Societal progress means acknowledging and making way for talents of all people.

Their is what is called self instinct, it tells you when to stop something that is becoming a threat to your existence. Intense gambling and losing, what your mind should tell you is having to stop or reduce to it's minimal, this is your instinct and you do not primarily need the awareness of the government or another person? The government and school can be a secondary factor of creating awareness on the dangers.

Yeah, they will difficult to deposit money for playing gambling as that's what they must do if they want to playing gambling. Children doesn't have an income like adults so they are depend from their parents to deposit so that can make them asked their parents for the money. They can steal their parents money to deposit to playing gambling.

For women, they can playing online gambling to hides their gambling activity from the other people so they can free to playing gambling. We know that many women buying lottery and they often buy the ticket and waiting for their chance to be the winners. We don't knows how important gambling for women because many women are hiding their gambling activity from other people.

It is no longer a necessity but it has become an obligation for parents to educate and direct their children in the right direction such as telling and directing about what is good to do and what should not and should be avoided in any case and not just about gambling.

That's what parents must do to their children to makes sure their children doesn't do something that can harms their life. Parents must remind their children from gambling because that can makes them become addicted to gambling. It's not easy because in this era, children can easily used their gadget to access many things and only with supervision from their parents, their children can avoid all things that can makes them life in a bad situations.

With gambling increasingly, that can make children and women can access gambling easily that they can do from their gadget. It needs education for children and women so they don't have to playing gambling to have fun. Many activities they can used for having fun so they don't have to playing gambling that can gives them a problem. Even the advanced technology now is better than a few years, they will not trying to makes their lives gets the negative impact of gambling. We don't wants our children or spouse involve to the gambling because that can makes them in a danger, especially if they are playing gambling too often. Playing gambling too often can makes them become addicted and once they are addicted, it's hard to cure because they will hide their gambling activity from other people.

Their is what is called self instinct, it tells you when to stop something that is becoming a threat to your existence. Intense gambling and losing, what your mind should tell you is having to stop or reduce to it's minimal, this is your instinct and you do not primarily need the awareness of the government or another person? The government and school can be a secondary factor of creating awareness on the dangers.

It's all of us responsibilities to warning all people, especially for people who still playing gambling not playing gambling too often for their own good. If they can holds themselves from playing gambling too often, they will not having a problem because they know their limits and don't want to break it because that can makes them in a difficult. The governments must help to makes their people realizes about the danger of playing gambling too often so they will not doing that.
