Re: How do we get the women on board?

It is my belief that the majority of bitcoin users are males. Females, please prove me wrong through the poll.

Moving on, assuming that my belief is correct, the question is how we get them on board?

Let my first state that I think there is a difference in what would attract men and women to bitcoin. Men are more attracted to the avante garde aspect and the technological aspect, while women are more concerned with which technology works best for them now.
They want shinies, they want fast transfers, they might won over by ideology, but probably not the ideology of libertarianism. They want to use the system that their favorite site uses, and they want to use the system their friends use. This by the way probably describes how mainstream males think too.

How about we assume instead that what we are seeing is a sampling of the gender bias existing in the larger IT-culture population and try to avoid generalizing women as wanting "shiny things".

Please explain why there are no women here.

If by "here" you mean "as members of the bitcoin" forum and by "no" you mean "seemingly less in number than males". I thought that was pretty clear. Bitcoins probably overlap strongly with a larger community which is predominantly male. A non-random sample of that group is likely to be also male (perhaps even more biased).
