Entrepreneurship is a field not specified for on gender they can both involve and alook make good profit it does not require you to be a woman to be a successful business person likewise to men too every gender is perfect in entrepreneurship so long as you know it's principles, obligations and what it takes.
This is the same thing I ask whenever I see a seemingly sexist comment or suggestion in relation to business or entrepreneurship. What has sex got to do with business if the proper things are adhered to? Nothing. Except in countries where corners are cut to please the other sex or physical strength is demanded to cut through heavy duty, otherwise both male and female are equally endowed with the same brain capacity. In the real sense of it, I don't think it should be a competition of sexes. Rather, male and woman should compliment each other.

I want to start a discussion highlighting some points I read online regarding women as compared to men in entrepreneurship and the chance of success.

Quote

Men and women do not prepare for the launch of their business in the same way. The number one preparatory activity for women is specific training (43.3% versus 31.8% for men). Men are looking for potential clients (45.8%) and writing a business plan (42.5% versus 34.6% for women).

Market research is carried out by about 1/3 of men and 1/4 of women.

Women entrepreneurs are much less experienced than their male counterparts: 37.5% have less than 3 years of experience versus 25.7% of men.

82.5% of women start businesses alone (compared to 69.8% of men)

Men consider that they are more entrepreneurial than women (84.7% of men against 72% of women)

Men have much more confidence in the future than women (48.2% of women vs. 64.7% of men)

Men are clearly more confident in the success of their company than women: 72.4% versus 65.3

There are far more unemployed women than men among entrepreneurs: 25.9% versus 16.9

Women are 3 times less likely than men to have already tried the adventure of creating a business: only 5.3% of women had already created a business against 18.4% of men

As a result of the difficult economic times, do you consider that there will be more women entrepreneurs competing with men in this field which it so looks like they currently dominate?

While I want to be optimistic and say that the hard times temper the best people in the industry. It's worth noting that the odds are stacked against women too. The fact alone that most of them couldn't get the pay grade they deserve let alone be given jobs above clerical work is insane and is something that I see is what causes these people to go unemployed before starting their own business. Plus you also have to take into account that women most of the time are given more house responsibilities than male, which leads them to lose their jobs cause between caring for the house, the husband and the kids, going to work and then starting your own business, they won't have a life to live anymore.

I hope the system changes to be more favorable to everyone who wishes to make a name for themselves but it's misogynistic and capitalistic you couldn't really fight your way through unless you exert every ounce of your strength and will power to your craft.

Another thing is what we call the know how, it is something that requires a person with good qualities who also has the spirit of conducting the business affairs. A good business person is also expected to be a risk taker

Most entrepreneurship is men and we rarely encounter women, this is because the nature of women is preferring to enter the comfort zone and does not want to experiment, they will continue what is common or learned, such as cryptocurrencies today, most of the project leaders are men.
I found at the World Economic Forum that female entrepreneurs have increased worldwide from several surveys that have been conducted. Business ownership is still dominated by men.
In developing countries, entrepreneurship is also on the rise. According to the World Bank's Female Entrepreneurship Resource Point, between 8 million and 10 million small and medium-sized enterprises worldwide have at least one female owner.

Can't we just stop dividing the people based on gender, sex, religion, ethnicity.
People are people and the entrepreneurs are just entrepreneurs, it doesn't matter if they are men or women.
Women have many qualities and they can be successful in many fields. Men are more confident and love taking risks, but the times are changing. I know about statistics showing that the average level of testosterone in men is dropping every day, so the modern day men aren't as masculine, confident and energetic as their predecessors. We live in a more female-centric world than before, because of the mainstream media, feminism and the welfare state. I'm not saying that this is something bad. The times are changing and we might be witnessing more women entrepreneurs in the future(which isn't bad at all).

I think the thing that makes women not many who become Entrepreneurship is because they are very careful, they will only do it based on their experience and what they learn, maybe most women are more thorough than men but Entrepreneurship needs skills out of the box and of course risks so that women avoid it.
There's a term called Male Idiot Theory coined by an American cartoonist that states that boys or men tend to do riskier things even without recognizable rewards at the end so it says things about the difference between men and women plus there's still discrimination in the workplace, men will trust men to lead them more than women.

Well, we can say men do make some mistakes when it comes to their decision-making process. We can't deny that they are guilty of some of these behavior. They are more risk takers, I guess. But with women, they want an assurance of what they do next. There are pros and cons with such behaviors, they may get lucky of such decision though.
These conditions can be subject to a man just as a woman can be subject to them. In the field of business, mistakes are likely to occur, whether at the level of planning or implementation. What I mean is that women do not enjoy privileges compared to men in this aspect. The difference lies in that the experience that a man may enjoy based on the position he enjoys in traditional societies may enable him to obtain more opportunities and facilities than women. Other than that, both can enjoy the same opportunities .

Honestly in todays time, we can say that the equality has been there and the problem about the subject of women vs men has started to be off and not sensitive topic anymore.

It's because whatever men does, women tend to do it and that's just equal. But I think, that it's not all about competition but many women won't be a housewife material anymore.

They can do whatever we do and being an entrepreneur, they can do that as well and those that are struggling will do whatever it takes for them to survive.

So, if we see more women shifting into being entrepreneurs, it doesn't really matter IMO.

Today's times equality has been there so men vs women has started to be off or non sensitive topic maybe. But why we still priorities women because the hurdles they face. Being a women entrepreneurs face hurdles like patriarchal society, social barriers, attitude of creditors, lack of opportunities etc. Women from developing countries are mostly experience these kinds than developed countries.
I dont see that there's already no talks about gender in terms of some key aspects where it would really be still able to generate those kind of discussion or argumentations when it comes to this.

It cant really be avoided that there would be debates in regarding gender which is something a very common one since there are things which cant really be done by women or
just really that appropriate for those masculine and not for those feminine.

This would really be a never ending debate in relation to this thats why its not really surprising  that there's always a look down on women on different aspects.

I think it's great that women can be entrepreneurs because they bring a different approach when doing business. The ideas from entrepreneurial women are great because they can always offer different perspectives that men may not sometimes consider when doing business.

By having entrepreneurial women they also offer opportunities for other women in the workforce field. Hopefully one day my niece may also be an entrepreneur and give other women opportunities in the workforce field and make a good life for herself.

Its been part of the culture or somewhere in beliefs that men or male are superior in all sorts of things which i cant really deny it on because we men are risk takers and adventurous and having that physique which

is suitable on different conditions which we can really rely upon rather or comparing to women but in some sort of key areas  where women could also do on what men could do.It is really just we cant really just

trust up on what would be the result but in todays technology and accessibility then women are really indeed that capable on doing things and it is really just men cant really just
trust up on whatever actions that they are tending to do.

The adjective entrepreneurship what difference does it have?  Let's start there, today regardless of gender it is fashionable to say "I want to start one..." and when you ask or read they say "a restaurant" for example, lol and then?  What is the novelty?  The innovation?  People forget that entrepreneurship basically has to do with innovation, not with starting a tradicional business or project.

Then it depends on what you intend to start, without a doubt that their qualities as individuals, that is, their attitude and aptitudes determine success, regardless of gender.

We live in times of change and accepting individuals for their intellectual and physical abilities to the extent that they are necessary to achieve ventures or get businesses, is what matters.

In any case, there is still a long way to improve, but each time the possibilities better for the reasons mentioned, at least that the case in my environment.

women pursuing careers at this time include everything, because there are no more discriminatory rules. not only in business in the world of politics they are even superior to men in some places, although we cannot deny that women are different from men in rights and responsibilities
There’s actually no competition between this two gender, we only create this problem and honestly the society changed a lot now and we are now in a time where women are very strong and very independent, we should not see them as a small one. Women can do well, it’s just a matter of commitment and perseverance because if Men thinks women can’t do things they are doing right now, probably he can’t just accept this fact that women is different now. Let’s respect everyone no matter what the gender is, let’s just focus on the situation and not on the gender.
why men are so domineering, this is actually because men have a big responsibility on his shoulders to his family so it is an obligation for him to work and pursue a better career for the happiness of his wife, children and relatives

in every country different rules that the government applies to women but for my own country there are none, so that between women and men have the same rights and there are no special rules, and the impact of the equal rights can be said 35% of macro businesses have been carried out by a woman and most women running micro-enterprises it is 40-45% higher, but basically in business and work men dominate because 70% of women in my country prefer to be housewives
this is my personal opinion by looking at the environment around me

Even today women are given more rights than men. As long as they have the ability and ability to take on the responsibility, they can do anything that we men can do.

The topic of equality, in my opinion, no longer seems to be a matter that is discussed by many people these days, as it used to. Women can do politics and men can become housewives if that is their preference and desire.
The equality between men and women is no longer an issue and is even accepted by most of men nowadays. In fact, if you have a responsible and business minded partner in life, that would mean another advantage because you will grow and prosper together faster than you could imagine. So at least you should also show support to your woman because being an entrepreneur also means risk and brings failure once there is no proven strategies to be used.
When it comes on choosing your wife material or characteristic then its up to you whether you would really be that aiming on having those kind of qualities or just sticking out with those basic skills or something like

that but its true that you would really be having that kind of advantage when it comes on choosing a partner which does have these kind of knowledge and skills towards business and other stuffs correlated to it.

It is really just normal that people would really be having that gender inequality kind of impression most of the time but we could really see that women could  really make out things on what men can do.

I am happy to see the changing era, where now women are free to pursue the passion they want without the need to be limited anymore.
In my opinion, regarding any job, there should be equal opportunities regardless of gender, there should be no discrimination in any work.
As long as the person is able to do his job well regardless of his gender he should be given the opportunity to prove it. Today with social media
we can easily find successful businesswomen to be role models for other women fighting for their dreams. Even though the woman is married
and has children, I don't think it's a problem if a woman wants to run a business and pursue her dreams. As long as the woman can manage
both family and work matters, it shouldn't be a problem. Then for men don't be afraid to compete with women, as long as the men do their best
and do everything seriously,  then they shouldn't be afraid to compete with women.

As a result of the difficult economic times, do you consider that there will be more women entrepreneurs competing with men in this field which it so looks like they currently dominate?

Women has dominated several sectors of the economy where men once dominated. I believe strongly that success is not gender based it is a combination of determination and hard work irrespective of gender. By statistics women are more likely to survive more than men during difficult economies and in our present society women tends to get more opportunities than their male counterpart because most of those sectors are trying to balance up the gender ratio
