I don’t think it is gender specific. 99.9% of people cannot go beyond their comfort zone.
Overlanding takes you way beyond that... often. Most guys and gals will go on their organised holidays, or booking a nice hotel for 2 weeks in Ibiza to lay down by the beach. My kind of hell holiday, but there you go. Finding people who actually will go beyond that is hard.
Even among my friends. I tried and failed to get them to come with me to ride an organised tour ( with russian friends on local bikes ) in Siberia. Every single One of them who said would love to do something like that.... found an excuse not to come.
I went with the husband. We had a ball.
That is only one example among many. Where to find like minded people? And people you actually get on with? That is probably the one million dollar question. Or answer?
I met many adventurous ( like in travel) women during my trips. On bikes, backpacking, cycling ( solo across Africa, Central Asia or South America !) etc... they are out there... just not that visible. Keep looking... sometimes it is about luck, fate or karma....
Good luck!
