Hii!
Just wondering if there are any fellow girls on here who are into Bitcoin mining, trading, etc. It seems it's mainly guys. We are roughly 50% of the population of this planet yet I can't find any girls who are into Bitcoins, anywhere.

Everytime I try to mention Bitcoins while hanging out with girlfriends they always look confused and change the subject, yet they're not "dumb girls", they've been to Uni, spend a lot of time online, have paypal acc's, online banking, etc. Why are they so reluctant to hear about Bitcoins?

Did you tell them they can buy shoes with bitcoin ?
And many Bitcoin owners are freshly virtually minted millionaires ?

I'm guessing only a few % of bitcoin users are girls. Look at the girls around you, I have spoken to many girls about BTC and some of them knew about Bitcoin, or knew people that used Bitcoin, but never really wanted to learn more about it. I think that the current marketing of Bitcoin isn't targeted to women, women think it's too complicated and are more afraid of risks.

WOMEN ARE MORE AFRAID OF RISKS. Spot on. We don't handle risk and uncertainty as well as men do, we like SAFETY, we are just wired this way, goes way back. Probably has to do with motherhood i.e.making sure we are capable of keeping babies safe or something.
