The overriding characteristic I've noticed of these rare individuals (i.e., female audio enthusiasts) is that they typically don't like tinkering. My experience is that there is more of an attraction to the "bottom line" (i.e., "just tell me what it takes", which is also more a common personality trait seen in younger "Gen Zers"). I've noticed these individuals to be avid readers of audio magazines and online articles of the type which contain few or no measurement plots. You know: audiophile magazines...
I have noticed however that when self-identified females do join in conversation on audio forums, the discussions tend to become more civil and perhaps a bit more friendly than usual--albeit punctuated by a strange and peculiar form of online audio tinkerer's "man-splaining". 😉 I don't hold out a lot of hope of seeing a lot more females around in the future. The guys actually wind up running them off quickly.
It's a shame. I've noticed that their presence tends to bring a certain clarity and civility of conversation, along with more openness and positive learning experiences.

Well said, Chris
Women like music, play music and go to concerts, so why do so many businesses ignore and discourage them?
Not just the audio business ignores female customers: just walk into any car dealership, any brand, with your female partner and see how the sales people treat them. A couple of years ago we bought a new car: to whom do you think the staff directed all their questions?
Encel Stereo in Melbourne, which closed many years ago, was the only stereo shop I found which didn't treat women as invisible. Among other things, they considered that women had better hearing so should be involved in listening and purchase.
