I would like to add another reason: men are often the family's breadwinners. They need high-paying jobs. They will turn to gambling simply because gambling is like a job. They can make a lot of money quickly, and yes, they can accept the misfortunes of loss. Suppose a woman has to take care of all the money in the house. I think they will also see gambling as a place to make money. They will also be addicted to gambling like men.

Gambling will be an entertaining game for people with abundant financial resources, but sometimes also a job for those who want to earn quick money to cover living expenses in the family, but risky—very high loss.

Sure, they’re are a lot of women who get addicted to gambling but I disagree with your point about a woman seeing gambling as a way to make money if they’re the breadwinner of the home.
There are a lot of women who work hard and manage their household finances without having to resort to gambling to make some money.

I think people who see gambling as a job in order to earn money and perhaps get rich enough to cover one’s living expenses are delusional. You don’t get a steady weekly or monthly paycheck from gambling. For that, one would have to get an actual job.
