I’ve been spending a disproportionate amount of my income on audio hi-fi equipment for about 25 years and I can only speak from my own observations. All of the women I’ve ever known, dated or friends, thought I was crazy to spend that much to listen to music, and all in their own homes were content with smallish Best-Buy type “systems,” if they even had those. No opinions, just my observations.
Lack of Female Representation
So who can explain the near lack of females in our hobby? There are far more women discussing football than audio, by a long shot. There are a lot more women into fixing up their cars as well. I just can’t think of a hobby, other than ours, where representation is so close to zero.
