I don’t really care if billionaires are men or women. Their meat will taste the same either way once we cook them.

Do we know that for certain?

Only one way to find out

What a weird combo of stats to pair in a headline. I don’t think they meant it but it creates this weird kind of false equivalence.

No one is self-made. Without customers or employees your business will fail

Wealth is just another dick measuring contest, for some men. I think it makes sense why women might not be as interested in something like that. That doesn’t mean that women don’t care about money or being successful in business, only that many women might measure success differently.

Really really doubt that there are fewer female billionaires because “they aren’t interested”

Not everyone cares that much about becoming a billionaire. Or, maybe many women are just more interested in marrying a billionaire than acquiring the wealth themselves.

Like Kylie Jenner? Give me a fucking break.

No billionaires are self-made. Somewhere along the way there is always exploitation of others.
