The difference in gender is often affected by the politics and the environment. A number of recent researches try to explore the impact of gender difference. As the internet becomes popularized, the way people learn is changed; many now learn through the internet. The present study unveiled the different types of video guitar learning lessons’influence on impulsive behavior, instrument learning self-efficacy, applicability, learning interest and user satisfaction. Online surveys were distributed through a guitar learning website, and a data of 177 containing 75 males and 42 females was obtained. Previous researches show that females have an overall higher satisfaction and learning interest than males.However, the results of the present study showed that there was no gender difference in impulsive behavior, instrument learning self-efficacy and applicability when learning through video guitar learning lessons. In addition, the male user satisfaction and learning interest were significantly higher than that of the female.
