Message: [QUOTE="nick619, post: 3224759, member: 204123"] To the creator of this thread: Why don't we simply take gender out of the equation? Women want to be considered equals to men after all, as they should. I personally don't care if the people sitting at the poker table are women or men. The money is just as green at the end of the day. A couple of things that stood out in this thread: -"women reportedly earn 30% less than men". I don't know how true that is, but all the more reason to play poker. We all pay the same amount for the chips and when we cash out, we all get the same return. We're equals. -The entire motherhood argument. I know a lot of deadbeat moms as well as deadbeat dads. Lets just call it parenthood and stop holding one gender as more of a parent than another. There is no double standard. I'm expected to be a great father as much as a woman is expected to be a great mother. -I read somewhere in this article about men at the table flirting with women and it's unwanted, etc. Sometimes that may be the case, but other times women at the table are trying to use their "assets" to their advantage. Lets not play stupid here. We've all seen the woman sitting at the table with her tits hanging out trying to distract the men at the table. I've also seen the same woman crying about how men are always flirting with her and she is not an object. You can't have it both ways, people. -marketing in poker. This is probably the only thing I agree with out of your entire post. Absolutely there is far more marketing towards men, but can you blame them? The majority of the audience poker attracts, as you know, are men. But there are ads out there that have a really good looking man posing with cards/chips/money/trophies. They're just far and in between. Perhaps they need to change their approach. Anyways, I much prefer online poker. Online poker has no faces or genders.....or women with their tits hanging out trying to distract me. [/QUOTE]
