Serious, honest question: why are we bringing gender into this?
I’ve never considered the idea of one gender being any more likely to commit piracy than any other. Is there some kind of piracy subgroup of people in Indonesia or elsewhere who claim men are more likely to pirate music than other genders, particular women?
Again, this is a serious question, with no malicious subtext. I’m genuinely wondering where in the hell this question came from, because it seems to me like it came out of nowhere.
Because statistics and demographics are interesting :)
This is true.
Cool story, bro.

This is certainly true (most of the time)!

Lol, to be fair, I wasn’t even trying to be funny, just accurate. xD

What differs from other countries? The existence or results of the survey?

I didn’t make the mental connection. Sorry.
Since gender studies is an academic field and students do be writing theses, these things will pop up every once in a while, without any specific ideological reason.
Most likely, some statistics/gender studies student/postdoc wanted to take a look into the data and this is what came out at the other end.
Maybe break down by gender could be related to how accessible technology is to genders based on barriers like sexism and gender-based hostility? A bit like how IT jobs have less women (despite things like the first programmers being women and it originally being a “woman’s job”), non-binary folk and tend to be male-dominated? You have to ask why something that shouldn’t have a gender bias is gendered. In this instance, I would be looking at why there’s a difference between Western/W.E.I.R.D. countries and Indonesia - what in Indonesia is making it more accessible to women when the reverse is true in countries known to be hostile to non-males in the technology world.
(Possibly I have way overcomplicated what I’m trying to say lol but I’m a bit sick at the moment so not easy to think through a woolly head).
That makes a lot of sense. Thanks!
Also, what’s “W.E.I.R.D.” mean in this context? I’ve never seen that acronym before.
It’s used in academia, especially social sciences to represent the demographic usually studied: western, educated, industrialized, rich, democratic.
I see. Thank you for teaching me. :)
As someone that has issues with some of the woke crap going around, I have to wonder the same. What does gender have to do with any of this?
the woke crap
Aaaaaand that’s where you lost me.
I figured that would bring that sentiment to some. It is what it is.
As someone who has issues with rigt wing dog whistles, you can fuck right off with your bullshit
Love it. Were all getting along as usual. 🤣🤣
Women. 🏴☠️
It’s all the K-dramas
My first thought too. That, and K-Pop. There are a lot of hardcore fans throughout SEA who don’t have the income required to legally access all the content released by and/or featuring their favourite stars.
Indonesian women are based.
nice womens 😄
Idk that this is just Indonesia lol.
Women be on them seas
As usual, price and convenience are the biggest reasons people pirate.
Translation: if you want a chill woman move to Indonesia…

Fixed writed it in Spanish, thx for the correction mate 👍👍
