In a Twitter discussion on Sept. 5, Rosa-Maria Ryyti (Miss Universe Finland 2015 winner), argued Bitcoin's risk factor made it more appealing to men.
She was responding to a query by analyst and Cointelegraph contributor, Filb Filb, who asked followers why the Bitcoin community was overwhelmingly male.
"Women are more risk-conscious in general and often go for a 'slow & steady' investment strategy," Ryyti wrote, adding:
"The current general perception of Bitcoin in the msm makes it even less probable for the average women (and men) to get involved."

Well, that settles it. Bitcoin must be bad then, because anything that isn't exactly equal for every race, gender and age is by nature evil and must be condemned. Bitcoin must be made illegal or at least so highly regulated that nobody wants to use it. All males who own a bitcoin must give half of them away to a wahmen until such time as they own the majority of them, kind of like how divorce works. If you don't agree with my bizarre radical Communist ideas like this, I'm going to savagely and constantly disparage you in the name of tolerance.
