Why do almost all women today hate home audio?



Why do almost all (99%) of women never seriously, sit, and listen to home audio through even one album?

I knew many, many women that listened, and had there own stereos, in the late 60's and 70's.

They even had big record collections, and some even had real-to-real tape recorders.

Why did they disappear?

What changed?

Yeah, Whatever.

Look Darling are you OK with this $5k power cable?

Yes, sure sweetheart are you sure it's going to do the job?

I also knew lots of women in the 60s and 70s. NONE of them had any interest in a system, or wasting time sitting still, doing "nothing", just listening to music.

And here in 2023, just like the OPs post in 2015, just like the 60s and 70s, I still don't know a single woman who has the slightest interest in "doing nothing but just listening to music!!!".

My daughter listens to music very intently, usually on headphones or on the little bluetooth speaker I got her (Audio Pro C3, which is quite good sounding).

She prefers to listen to entire albums, as albums, and dislikes jumping from song to song.

She is 16. Just an anecdote, but no one told here to listen this way.

preposterous, gross generalization.  
“Why are 99% of audiophiles sexist and sexually unappealing to women?”

There. I can do it too.

My experience with women is similar to kids, they like music but are ok with listening on Alexa or even a phone speaker.  I can't understand it.

So if you don't appreciate the quality of the sound, any sound will do, then the system gets judged for aesthetic value and rejected in favor of things you'll see in Architectural Digest.
