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.

Because audiophile listening at home is essentially a non-social, isolated, individualistic pastime. However women are social animals, needing to converse, chat, hug, share, interact, etc. etc. They just have no interest in spending so much time on a totally isolated, individualistic, non-sharing pastime. |
ssmaudio & ncbassplayer have pretty much hit the nail on the head. Like most things in life it comes down to the 80 - 20 rule. 80% of women are into breeding & yacking. Anything that deviates from the trajectory of those orbits, either financially or chronologically is considered by them to be stupid. As for the other 20% ..... IMHO that’s where value is found. I wonder what Yuja Wang uses for a system. |
