Civilization has become a great foundation for gender equality. In most parts of the world, women have equal rights as men also do. This has helped encouraged females all over the world. Their morales to become whatever they want has been on an all-time increase since certain women have taken it as a responsibility to make sure women are appreciated all around the world as limit breakers.
Today, we live in a world where everyone is given the same opportunities from the very moment they were born. More and more individuals are being added to the list of billionaires. The funny thing is, there are even billionaires who aren’t known. The majority of these billionaires are males as we all know. A study published by CNBC in 2018 revealed that women make up 11.7% of the list of the world’s richest individuals. That wasn’t so bad but looking at the fact that in 2015, the number was 11.9% make it a concern.
Reasons We Have More Male Billionaires
Before I go further, it is important I highlight the fact that this content isn’t created to get at the women in any way. It’s just to help them understand what they are competing against and the barrier which limits them from living their best.
In the world we find ourselves gender equality has been an issue dealt with for years. It is true that females are weaker vessels but it doesn’t deny them of any right what so ever. The world wouldn’t have been balanced without the presence of women so, we should learn to appreciate them instead of seeing them as inferior creatures.
These are the reasons we have more male billionaires:
- Males are naturally risk takers and are most willing to go the extra mile compared to women.
- In most religions and cultures around the world, the males are given the upper hand (i.e. seen as superiors).
- Physically and emotionally, males are stronger.
- They make the majority of the decisions in our society today.
- Men have competitive spirits more than women do.
- Men are daring compared to women.
If you look at the reasons given above, you will realize that none of them talks about intelligence or intellect. So, don’t feel males are smarter than females.
Reasons We Have Few Female Billionaires in Our World Today
Shortly, I am going to be giving you 7 powerful reasons we have males becoming billionaires than females. Before going into them, I will like to list them out. These are the reasons:
- Inferiority
- Mindset (What they’ve been made to believe)
- Gender inequality
- Opinions that segregate women
- Religion
- Culture
- Lack of Believe in Themselves
1) Inferiority – Most females see themselves as being inferior to males. They are of the opinion that males are superior. This has really affected the competitive spirit women have since it creates a thinking that just men can make it that big.
2) Mindset – When it comes to success and acquiring wealth, your mind plays a major role. Remember “whether you think you can or you can’t, either way, you are right”. If you don’t condition your mind to solve problems and achieve more, you are going to be limited. What you believe or have been made to believe will determine whether you will be successful or not.
3) Gender Inequality – Even in some constitutions, there are laws that do not protect the interest of females. Although this originates from the religion and culture of the people in that part of the world. Some say “it’s a man’s world”. Snap out of that mindset if you want to become a billionaire one day.
4) Opinions That Segregate Women – When it comes to doing some certain things in our society, females are seen as unimportant. In some discussions, there are opinions that women shouldn’t be allowed to make contributions to.
5) Religion – Some religions segregate females a lot. In these religions, it is believed females should idolize males. This doesn’t allow females push to become more.
6) Culture – For females to become achievers in our society, cultures which portray females as inferior must be done away with. Some cultures don’t allow women to do anything external. Female education is even prohibited and they are only attached to making sure the home works.
7) Lack of Believe in Themselves – Believe is one reason why people make it. If you don’t believe you can, you never will. Females should learn to believe they can achieve more. They shouldn’t conform to the opinion of society, religion, culture. Once you believe in yourself, you can become just anything.
