I don't think they are ready to build a family. It was just a result of how early they are open into relationship and that resulted to early pregnancy and marriage.
They have no option but to just continue it together with their chosen partner or else they'll be living alone with their baby and will grow with a single mom.
But we see how women empowering themselves through various skills and businesses that they are succeeding.

Women actually have limited access to resource and perhaps this is among the reasons why they are lag behind when it comes to entrepreneurship. there are series of barriers that women face when it comes to starting and growing their own businesses but women have been making great strides in the world of entrepreneurship in recent years. There is need to increase the representation of women in positions of power in the business world in order to reduce the gap. One thing that could be done to support women entrepreneurs is to increase access to funding. I know in some countries including my own, there are some initiatives in place to help women secure financing for their businesses but more could be done to level the playing field.

Moreover, having more women in leadership positions especially in the business industries could be beneficial for our economy. It could help to normalize the idea of women as business leaders and also serve as a role models for other women who are looking to start their own businesses. This would definitely help to close the gender pay gap.

   Regardless of what you stated, we still have women who are married and yet still successful in their careers and business. If you are a women facing entrepreneurship and parenthood make sure that if you have a partner that you be clear on getting as much support as you can. Also get clear on what your objectives both in being a parent and an entrepreneur. Make a list and what is your definition of being a good parent. Also make a list of what is being a good entrepreneur. When you get in the middle of the stress on either side you can look back at your list and seeing if you are meeting your own qualifications.
  People have this notion about females and trust me no matter how progressive we become this will not change. People think - beauty and brains in a female rarely co exist. If she is pretty she has to be dumb and if she is intelligent she has to be a an average looking girl - is the first impression people have. I think there are a ton of women entrepreneurs and probably more than male entrepreneurs, honestly. We just don't consider them "real" entrepreneurs because they are owner/operators, self-funded, and don't have profit maximization as their number one priority. And because often their entrepreneurial activities are focused on supporting their families (rather than building a big company/being rich), they are not seen as "real" businesses.

Maybe it only happens in your country, but that doesn't mean it also happens in other countries. Because if we look at the causes, there are several things that prevent women from becoming successful entrepreneurs by leading large companies and one of them is the limited time available when a woman has to take care of her household every day. Even though this can still be circumvented by hiring a maid to take care of the household, the role of a mother must still be in the household.

However, I only see this in a broader scope and perspective so that there is no longer a big difference between women and men in matters related to entrepreneurs. This means that a woman can also lead a company and become a successful entrepreneur like other men as long as women have more time to focus in that field, because what prevents women from being successful is not enough time when they are married and building a household even though this was done together with her husband.

For women who choose to marry at a young age, they are definitely ready to build their family, so they prefer to marry at a young age, but in my opinion, in terms of pursuing their dreams, they certainly have to get support from their husbands and if given permission by their husbands, they definitely they will be able to divide their time for their family and also for the dreams they want to achieve and I am sure they can do it if they are disciplined in dividing the time they have.

For some reasons, they lose the urge to continue with their studies and that's because of the responsibility of being a married woman at a younger age.
But I've seen with the same situations that have never gave up and still pursued their dreams and achieved their goals. It's not just all about studies but also by being a working person or establishing their business which we usually see that there's women empowerment in that area.

Talking about the business side,  can't say that women are more economical. Firstly they didn't have that much resources to start their business in a way they want. And also they mostly didn't want to take risks in their lives. As most of the traders in the crypto world who are better traders are I think men. If we talk along the business side then it is also the men.

As if I talk about my family and our own relatives and take them as an example in the business field. There is not a single woman who are taking risks even in the business side. They are just stick to their home and they only work  at home. So in this case I had concluded that they didn't have that experience in business as man. Because man had examine different things outside the home and he has much experience about it.

If that's your question. This means that it is not equality or social culture that is the problem. So there is no reason why so few women are entrepreneurs through no fault of men today.

The cause is more due to the personal qualities of the woman herself, which is strengthened by what you explain and also the ease of getting support from the family. But most of the women who marry are under the age of 18 so they no longer pursue a career and lose their dreams. This is like what is happening right now in my country. because this is the reason why many entrepreneurs are still filled by men.

Now try to look at this in a more global scope by examining all the countries in the world, because this is not based on the ideas of just one person. But it is an idea that has been agreed upon by the government of each country and indeed only a few countries do, because there are many other countries that no longer see gender differences in the employment and wages sectors. This is due to a person's level of expertise which should be more appreciated with a commensurate wage or salary without being influenced by gender.

In my country things like that no longer apply because in my region anyone can be any leader as long as they have the ability to do so so equality is increasingly visible and this has been going on for a long time in my place. Everyone is treated the same and there is no bargaining based on gender, except for certain jobs such as guarding which require men to rely on them. Meanwhile, everything else is considered the same and there is no difference whatsoever.

  Gender inequality is one of the greatest issue in so many nations and it’s sad because truthfully there shouldn’t be disparities as regards gender and their quality of impact. For me the same level of effect either positively or negatively a man can have in an organizational setting is the same to the level of impact the woman would cause. The same law should apply when it comes to the entrepreneurial space. Technically, a universal study has proven that women tend to have better entrepreneurial ideas than the men and even if a survey is carried out, we get to discover that women also have in them the zeal of independence.
    The world is evolving and we as the inhabitants should evolve with it. We should welcome the development that women can also do well and even better than some men in the labour market. They can go out of their way to learn a variety of skills just to see that they’re grounded in the economy. Its very much easier for them because if with the skills they acquire, coupled with certain inert knowledge as to interacting and establishing relationships with people, we discover that it’s very much easy for them to win clients into their business space. In all, they shouldn’t be neglected but rather should be embraced and guided through in the times where they may face difficulties and see how the economy will be maximized

Iceland is the global leader on gender equality; it tops the global gender gap rankings, and it has done so for fourteen consecutive years. Meaning it has the least gender pay disparity in the world. People may still say the gender pay gap is a myth. But it's not a myth; it's a reality that's stubborn and pervasive. Likewise, gender equality. It's worse in many other countries, like Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, etc. Even developed countries haven't achieved full gender equality, so we can imagine the situation of women entrepreneurs. All the above data that shows the difference solely because of gender difference is unfair.

In terms of opportunities for entrepreneurship, currently women are no different from men so it is very natural for them to be supported by their families and people around them. Because to become an entrepreneur we actually have to be supported by our own abilities so that we can compete with other entrepreneurs in the same field. And usually women who get more support from the family and people around them will find it a little easier to develop in their entrepreneurial field.

Well said on this. The views stated here are outdated and I'm not even sure why they should be discussed for so long. Time has proved how women can dominate the same field men traditionally do. Additionally, it was the result of the negative and discriminating cycle that pushed women to make a change and break the norms set by outdated culture and views of society. Women have proved how they can work and provide just the same as men can nurture and express. Such a toxic mindset about these gender norms should be completely thrown out now as it not only affects women but also men and anyone fighting for their gender rights and expressions.

Right!! Currently speaking, gender has nothing to do with it. This is so outdated to argue with. Entrepreneurship is about mindset, passion, and determination, and those are the qualities that are not gender-specific. As time passes, women learned to break the patriarchal cycle. There may still be existing gender disparities in workplace but they have continuously prove that with the right mindset and support, they can thrive in entrepreneurial sectors traditionally dominated by men. 

I remember my professor in college, she's actually a woman but for the discussion as well to connect to the topic of our subject. She said that " woman are subjective while men are objective". Which triggered a lot of people which she rely on information based on the behavior of woman and man. Both genders can actually do the thing in economy, even men need assistant just to handle things which literally from women. It could be the other thing women asking assistance from men. it's just they are used to men acting like the boss but the truth is anyone could be the boss. We're already at the age of where everyone has freedom to do things they like, follows their passion. Just leave the negative classification of men and women. Imagine you're years of experience and skills but doesn't give you the high paying job which suitable for you because you're a woman? Nuh uh. It would literally depends on your performance.

Isn't it funny how society segregates people by gender? Entrepreneurs can manage, strategize, and achieve regardless of gender. Skills, passion, and dedication matter. Skills, enthusiasm, and dedication define a successful entrepreneur.

Yes, many businessmen are men, but does it mean they're better at business? Or does it represent social norms and expectations? Aren't we interested why women are associated with discipline and men with strategy? Why stereotypes? Why these boxes?

Everyone can be an entrepreneur. Everyone. Passion, dedication, and skill rule this field. Having drive and vision makes you an entrepreneur, regardless of gender. Why hold onto these obsolete ideas? Shouldn't we move past them?

It is truly helpful to have support from family and the people around us, especially in the sectors that are usually not able to receive such support because of social constructs like entrepreneur women. The support will surely boost their confidence and allow them to believe in themselves more that pushes them to show the world how good they can be.

When it comes to entrepreneurship, it is not discussed whether a man or a woman is good at managing it. Because if that is our basis, it will appear that only a few women are good at managing businesses because most of the businessmen are men. But, of course, it doesn't depend on that. Because, after all, entrepreneurship is for everyone who is open to it.

That means, male or female, as long as you are open to this category of business, you are welcome here in an industry like this. If we look and observe literally, it is more disciplined in these times if the person in charge of the money is a woman, but when it comes to strategy or marketing strategy, the man is more, so now it is a good combination to have a woman and a man together in a business.

Having support from other family members will certainly make it easier for women if they have the desire to become entrepreneurs because women are very good at managing finances. In the current era of technological development, it will make it easier for everyone to open an online shop. Of course this can be an option for women who want to be entrepreneurs and also continue to take care of their family members. Of course this is very profitable for their partners because they have additional income.

A woman can become a great entrepreneur if she gets enough support from her family. We women mean housewives who will work at home and take care of the family beyond that but we don't care, but if women are given enough opportunities then women can move forward a lot. 

Entrepreneurship is not only about men, women are entrepreneurs now as well as men. There are many simple businesses for women that can be easily done by women. A woman can start any online business or offline business if family supports and encourages her.  Nowadays people shop mostly online so if a woman can open a clothing store and if that clothing store provides online and offline buying and selling facilities then I think that woman will achieve success in no time. Women are timid in nature and if encouraged and supported they will do much better than expected.
