Well, I read the chapter headings and read some of the beginning comments and quickly realized that this entire paper could have been boiled down to a page or two at best.
The reason for its length and the "research" poured into the effort was solely for the pursuit of a degree. What a massive waste of time, and the author didn't learn much other than than how to execute a writting assignment
The same approach could have been aimed at car enthusiasts, boat lovers, coin collectors, and book club geeks.
The fact that mostly men are attracted to this hobby is simply becuase we are wired that way. My wife loves music but choses to focus her attentions differently. There is nothing elitist or anti-mainstream about this hobby. The more the merrier.
