isn't that kind of what you are doing though?

Women are very interested to talk politics in other arenas.

Do you mean arenas, as in CP? can you really be sure this thread has less participation than any other thread? Is this a political thread? Or more like a criminal court case thread?
Obviously you are basing this on a hunch since I'm assuming you haven't conducted a formal male vs female survey of the posters in this thread.

I think you have part of the answer, but women do appear often in other threads.

depends on what you mean by often. Each thread often has at least one female contributor. Has usually been a very small percentage of total posts though.

I'm afraid they don't feel welcome to join these conversations.

I'm very curious as to why? Are you directly or indirectly blaming the posters in this thread of having an anti female bias? Or maybe you're just pointing out that women don't feel welcome because this thread contains quite a bit of complex legal discussion and jargon. In fact I'm not sure I feel comfortable posting in this thread. Is there any reason to suspect that any poster who doesn't post is doing so based on their gender?
If women are uncomfortable I'd be curious to know why. Are they afraid of not defending the victims? Are they afraid of sharing an opinion that goes against the grain? And why do you notice they are absent from this thread only? Why hasn't anyone expressed concern that women aren't posting in the Better Call Saul thread? Or the BvS thread?
