I do it becuase I find it interesting and its like a skill I can improve over time; the way I do it - apart from these forums - is very solitary, not that it has to be. For my wife its exactly the opposite; she finds it boring - the stars will always be there - so why both look or photgraph them - and if there is no social interaction with her friends involved - then being time poor - sorry its just not going to happen.
Pick a thousand people and give each $10K that you could only spend on one interest - how many would spend it on astronomical gear? From that number I would expect more guys than girls - it can too easily be too solitary for women to be broadly interested in maybe?
