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.

My wife enjoys our system as much as I do. She doesn’t care much about the gear though and isn’t happy about the $$$ spent to get it. 
It comes down to males are generally more interested in things and females are more interested in people. This is why you see more male than female engineers and more female than male nurses. 
In this country women got the vote a hundred years ago. Think about that for a moment.
 
Systemic sexism exists despite MC's love of the "divine individual." His argument drips irony and lacks historical context, not to mention him parroting party/media thinkspeak. 

More women would be interested in audio gear if cultural and educational bias was addressed. 
Nonsense! Please dont use the word systemic..anything. And exactly who is parroting the flavor of the day? 

Who’s to say the cause and effect regarding a problem no one really wants to or cares to fix. Anyone who has been to any of the many audio shows pre-covid need not wonder why there aren’t more females interested in the “hobby”. 
A few day work strippers holding cables, a few silly cars usually in a color few should hope to emulate. Attending a show answers alot of questions though, for insatance “who buys these shoes with velcro straps”, “where have all the dad-jeans gone” and “Who is this dude referring to in the song Keith dont go and why”. Seriously though, women enjoy music equally as much as men but they just dont need all the ocd bs and locker room commentary. Nor do many gentlemen for that matter.
