<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Just Carl, post: 744965, member: 4552&quot;]Came up not long ago. From the many, many coin shows and coin shops I go to I&#039;d say about 90% are men. And of those, about 80% are probably over 60 years old. This is about the same proportion of men/women that I&#039;ve seen at gun shows, knife shows and card shows. At computer shows it is about 50/50. At dog or cat shows around here it is usually about 75% women over men. At most flea markets I have estimated that from 7AM to 9AM it is about 80% men, after that it becomes 50/50. If you are in college you would also see about 75% men over women in Physics, Chemistry, Math. For some reason I&#039;ve watched this over many, many years. </p><p>The problem today is the internet. You really have no idea who is male of female with the buying and selling of coins. For all we know 90% of all the members here could be female and just don&#039;t say they are. On ebay I&#039;d say anyone selling coins and stating they know nothing about coins but want to sell this coin, is a female. And that is usually far from the truth too. </p><p>At a recent coin show of about 80 to 90 dealers I noticed only one lady and she was with her husband as dealers. I was there for close to 2 hours and never saw another female. That was odd for that show since it is usually the only one that women attend around here. </p><p>For some strange reason women just want to <b><u>waste time </u></b>doing laundry, washing dishes, shopping for food and clothing for the entire family, dressing kids, helping with thier homework, cleaning windows and miscellaneous other wastefull subjects. When, as us men all know, are no where near as important than our hobbies. </p><p>And with this reply I may well soon be hospitalized.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
