Most of the serious meditation people I've run into have been men. Is serious meditation actually gendered in this way or do I just have a skewed sample?

Men have more “free time.” It’s pretty popular among single, childless women of equal socioeconomic status.

Yeah, as the other commentator said then I'd expect this to be reflected in all other hobbies that eat up free time, which is definitely not the case.

If men are over represented in a few hobbies, they must be over represented in *all* hobbies? Time isn’t the only factor, just 1 of many.🤔 🤷🏻‍♀️🙂
