Agreed. In fact I would argue two things at least historicaly in the US:
1) Men tend to take risks more than women.
2) Women tend to focus more on family than men.
Additionally, I would add, that it's likely that the bulk of businesses owned at any given time in history, counting part-time businesses have always been owned by women. Indeed the great influx of women into the work force in the late 19th and early 20th centuries had to do with industrial processes undermining their businesses!
