Hey y'all...Seriously, I've been having this running through my mind.. maybe it's been discussed but this is on a diverse objective.
Why is it that we tend to have alot of men inclined and addicted to gambling than women? Is there any mystery guiding that?

Men have more courage to face the risks they will face, one of which is from a financial perspective, gambling is more popular with men, some people hope that by gambling they can double the money they have in a short time. Different from women, they are more detailed from a financial perspective, although some are extravagant because they like shopping, but they are not so interested in gambling because they are more concerned about the risks they will face.

Courage is very positively connoted and should probably not necessarily be used in the gambling environment. Maybe I am too focused on the semantics and rhetorics here, but when we talk about gambling and why it is a men's thing, courage, like courage to do good, to intervene on the streets when someone does something bad, isn't the true reason why men gamble more. I think men also have a talent to suppress the root of the evil and compensate for it by things men shouldn't be doing. Women in contrast would rather talk about an issue and not seek for compensation that harms them even more. This is not to be understood as a basic rule, more like a pattern that does allow for deviation from the norm.
