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.

And then ghasley makes things worse by being patronizing. A participant from an unusual demographic should be treated no differently than the typical "nerd" man. Sorry but IQ remains the same, although a new perspective is welcome. Ladies please avoid speaking for women, but instead speak for yourself! 


@audition__audio I actually didn't intend to be patronizing to the two brave souls who posted and I doubt seriously they felt patronized. I intended to be kind and welcoming.

If I somehow offended you by doing so, it wasn't my intent.
Coming back to this thread and reading it to the end further convinces me that it was a real misogynist who had my 1st post removed.

All the best,

ghasley,

No offense taken. Ten years ago I wouldnt have thought anything about your post, but these days I am getting extremely sensitive to politically correct commentary. Truthfully the problem is probably more with me.
@audition__audio No worries. I know where you are coming from. I miss the days where people could disagree agreeably! Sounds simple but it isn't. Lot's of things sting and offend these days when they probably shouldn't.

Some might think taxes should be raised to feed the homeless or fight a war, others might think they already pay enough taxes and we should all agree there is middle ground to have a conversation.
