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.

Thats what I thought and had expected. Lets solve problems without discussion.

"Blind acceptance is a sign of silly fools who stand in line".


@audition__audio OK then. I will try.

One of the many ways that the Audiogon community can welcome females into the audio discussions would be to leave the off color, distateful commentary out every discussion. Ladies and gentlemen discussing audio topics like ladies and gentlemen would be a nice aspiration.
 I apologise unreservedly, my comment was meant as an admonishment but qualifies as off-colour.
Almost all the Girls that I have talked to that  were assaulted,  were assaulted by one of these "Allies". Make of that  what you  want.....but it's one of my lived experiences. 
Sneaky men, constantly preaching is a huge red flag. 
“She would never consider posting on Audiogon, which she would find tedious, boring, and a waste of time, but she is way more interested in her relationships with family and friends and sharing photos and stories, in person, on the phone, or on Facebook.”

Facebook. Talk about wasting time.
