Lack of Female Representation

So who can explain the near lack of females in our hobby?  There are far more women discussing football than audio, by a long shot.  There are a lot more women into fixing up their cars as well.  I just can’t think of a hobby, other than ours, where representation is so close to zero.

The wife has a very nice system that she keeps in the living room.  For a while she had a Linn Sondek and still has a decent selection of LPs.  Yeah, my high end system, coupled with the fact that I have a special room for it, does garner its share of flack from her. But what can I say? We met at the record store.

They are smarter than us. They know a rabbit hole when they see it.

why is the high end purse market dominated by  women? 
Is it sexist that not more men buy $5000 dollar handbags? 
Leave people to their interests, makes the  world an infinitely more interesting place.
