Haruko Yasuda关于Women Riders · Industry Diversity的点评

'The gap is bigger than expected' — I nodded quietly at that line. I've lost count of how many times I've been told 'women aren't suited for motorcycles.' But facing the problem head-on and talking about it is the first step toward change. Toward a world open to everyone who wants to ride. An article that raises its voice like this is genuinely reassuring.

"Bigger than expected" is a vague phrase — I'd like to see the actual statistical source.

That lingering old mindset also shows up in things like the limited range of women's gear.

Never really noticed the industry's structural imbalance until it was pointed out — too close to it to see.

They say MCN tackled it head-on, but I'm curious how much actual data is behind it.
