"cimbing"
What? Did you mean climbing? That's a bad example, and so are the rest except woodworking. Climbing is close to 50/50 men and women. For gaming, the male bias is only for very male-oriented games, which is is logical, obviously there are more female oriented games and those have a female majority, and then we have the vast majority of games which isn't a big majority in either way. And extreme sports are also pretty even.
Woodworking is the only one here that is close to truth, and a big reason for that is simply the male-oriented tradition of it, many women who try it get their interest shut down just because of that shitty tradition and history of "it's a man think, women can't do this".
Your post only manages to show your own subjective, in a bad way, and ignorant views of these things. I highly doubt you have much knowledge about any of these them, and if you do it's a very narrow part of that thing. Like if you only play CS, CoD etc.
It's sad that people still think this way, and are unaware of their own shitty subjectivity.
