I agree with what a couple of people said.
Most women
A) Are afraid of sharks
B) Are more danger-conscious (scared of drowning)
C) Hate the idea of having to wear a wetsuit (which they think they look bad in)
I think those 3 things play more of a role in the lack of more women in diving than any "intimidation factor" caused by more male divers. Most women have a greater concern for safety than men, we tend to throw caution to the wind and charge into things with bravado. They are also very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very..............................................................................................................................VERY conscious about the way they look. And it's hard to look good in a wetsuit unless you are jessica alba and they are custom made for you.
