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.

When we figure out why we fat, balding, horny old coots want exceptional stereo we’ll know why they don’t.  Oh.  Never mind.

When I went hunting for new speakers, my wife's goal was "I just want it to sound good."

This isn't an income disparity thing.  Women just tend to not care about the same toys men do.

I wish I could count the times I "got lucky" due to the fact that I did pay attention to my my date, significant other, spouse. The icing on the cake WAS my Audio system and it's ability to set the mood with realism, depth and dynamics!  Long live the likes of Luther Vandross, Keith Sweat, Sade and Barry White.😘
