Message: [QUOTE="basse, post: 2454555, member: 122584"] A shocking amount of sexism in this thread (veiled and unveiled)... And I am male, for the record. It's pretty obvious that there are far far fewer female players than male players. Thus, you will also see far less female top players. Of course, one can easily dig a little deeper, and come up with all sorts of societal reasons as well. Obviously men are brought up to be more competitive and aggressive, as well as encouraged to pursue math-oriented interests. These are all qualities that would be helpful in poker. That said, I still think that it's largely a numbers game. There seems to be an increasing female interest in the sciences and math, maybe this will translate to more good female poker players in the future. [/QUOTE]
