My wife set up an ARR stack, because she didn't like downloading individual episodes. It's not that hard.
The point is that your wife is in the minority. The vast majority of people wouldn't consider torrenting, let alone *arrs. People with a greater willingness to tinker and learn technical stuff are the ones who'll consider it, and that group is overwhelmingly composed of men as of right now.
I'm seeing 3:1 male female from this source, but I figure data collection on torrent users is tricky: https://marketsplash.com/torrent-statistics/
Anecdotally, that makes sense. If you were to look at piracy overall, however, I wouldn't be surprised if that ratio was closer to 50/50.
