Where are the female Audiophiles?


Based on my limited experience, I would guess that 98% of Audiophiles are male. But 51% of our population is female. What gives?

In this age where females and males are equally represented in Universities and in the Professions, why is this still true?

I would guess that it is a cultural thing, can't be genetic can it?
Is it different in other parts of the World?

The 2% of self-described female audiophiles are faking it and couldn't set up a turntable properly or acoustically treat a room if their life depended on it. For the ladies in the field, it's mostly about décor, collectability, etc. And I'm fine with that. It's probably a more reliable indication of the difference in the sexes' brains than an MRI scan.
