I have a bunch of hobbies, which range from female dominated to a solid mix of participants. However, for a hobby that has a good number of both men and women involved, there seems to be a gap in the participation and achievement levels in a way that mostly alings with gender. A friend of mine mentioned we would have to look at how men engage with hobbies.
Do you feel that the ways men and women engage with hobbies generally, but especially when they share the same hobby still differs?
My husband is like your wife. He’s very happy to find a rabbit hole to go down and will spend hours researching or working on a specific thing and is very driven.
I’m very come and go with my hobbies and more relaxed about it. I may spend 15-20 minutes on one and then move on to another.
