^ Extremely low %, gonna dig it up one sec.
Edit: Found it, wrote it last year so the numbers aren't current. Also the math ain't perfect, but the gist holds.

Now, to address the question you posed, at the highest levels of play, it is EXTREMELY rare to find women acting on their own initiative. Here is an example taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World's...aires_2014:

Quote:

A total of 1,645 people made the 2014 billionaire list, represented combined wealth of $6.4 trillion. Of those, a record 268 were newcomers, surpassing 2008's 226 newcomers. The list included 42 female newcomers. One hundred people listed in 2013 failed to make the list. The number of women on the list rose to a record 172 in 2014, up from 138 the previous year. However, only 12 of them were completely self-made without the help of parents or spouses. Overall, 66% of the list was self-made, 13% achieved their wealth through inheritance alone, and 21% through a mixture of the two. The combined wealth of the top 20 rose from $714.5 billion to $838.6 billion.

Let's break this down!

Out of 268 newcomers, only 42 were women. 42/268 = 15.6% of newcomers were women. Further, only 12 were self-made. Contrast this to (268 newcomers - 42 female newcomers) = 226 male newcomers *average of 66% of the list being self-made = about 150 self made men (it's actually higher because the 66% is brought down by non-self-made women from previous years).

Even with the higher post-secondary education enrollment rates and all the scholarships and entrepreneurial programs specifically designed for women, they still don't have the right combination of guts, drive, and smarts to play at the highest levels.

However, I think the main reason women won't make it to the top is that their biology itself doesn't want to. I recommend reading this highly insightful post by The Reactionary Tree. It's full of gems that can be applied to more than one area: http://www.rooshvforum.network/thread-43...#pid921157

Women use coercion and persuasion over men as a means to get things done. This is the anatomy of female power. Women have always avoided positions of authority because with being in a position of authority comes responsibility and accountability. Women have a strong aversion to responsibility and accountability. You see this in even the most mundane social interactions like, "where should we go for dinner?"

Double edit: Just want to say that the main reason libtards get their panties up in a bunch over this is because they confuse equal opportunities for equal outcomes.
