Audiophile demographics?


Why are there a disproportional number of male audiophiles?
Not sure if this is a silly question, but speaking for myself, I have never met a female audiophile.
I am sure they exist, but their scarcity begs the question as to why.
Is it merely that men have more of the "mine is bigger than yours" mentality, do men love gadgets and tools or is it something more sinister?

https://www.wired.com/2016/03/mathematicians-discovered-prime-conspiracy/ With the same IQ you can be sceptic or gullible in some activities or aspect of life, in particular or in general....Personality traits or personal history is not linked to measured intelligence.... Intelligence or stupidity is not linked to a hobby, even to the audiophile hobby, and being an engineer is not a warrenty against gullibility in audio at all because audio is a complex phenomenon linked to many different sciences and dimensions that may exceed the limit of expertise of a particular engineer... This is very simple evidence....

IQ means little anyway.....And i dont think that men and women can be distinguished by different location on a Bell curve of IQ distribution....

Universe dont comply to statistical laws anyway even the thermodynamical one because universe is not only allegedly "dead" matter like we know it.....Prime numbers distribution and galaxies ignore them at the end...Life ultimately dont obey statistic and cannot be reduced to statistic....

For example we use statistic to study prime numbers distribution because we are ignorant of the ultimate reason behind their distribution....Recent work in this field explode the powerful statistical method in his capacity to explain their distribution....It seems that prime numbers had biases like life had bias..... All that are in the sky then are not only rain or light....

Funny thing is, most of life obeys statistical distributions very well, from IQ, to infectious disease transmission, to tardiness. Prime numbers are a mathematical construct, not a physical system. At the most discrete levels, physics becomes statistics, not equations.


A crowd conform to statistics, individuals not so...

Numbers are not only a human construct but reflect something that is not a cultural human construct...an objective discovery is not an invention ...

At his beginning and at his end matter dont conform to statistics no more...Matter is not only a crowd but also a qualitative geometry....

Funny thing is statistic apply to crowds, and to nothing else.....

If you think that ribosomic machines are the results of chance yes indeed life is only the results of statistic....Then indeed....Your life is simple but it seems we dont live in the same universe....

:)
A unitary measurement does not a statistic make ...

And yes, quantum mechanics shows that matter really does conform to statistical probabilities.


Oh here we go. Start out with differences in men and women, and let's find a way to insert what is effectively religion into the discussion.
My wife isn’t an "audiophile", but I trust her ears to help me make component purchasing decisions. She listens to 4 or 5 of her favorite songs every time I've brought a new component home to audition. She provides me feedback on her thoughts using non-audiophile terms and I always take her advice.Â
