Why Do Women Inventors Hold So Few Patents?
Since 1977, women have quintupled their representation among patent holders, yet they still hold “an extremely small share of patents,” according to a new paper by the Institute for Women’s Policy Research. Four decades ago, 3 percent of all patents listed at least one woman inventor. As of 2010, nearly 19 percent of patents did. Overall, more than 81 percent of patents include no women
Even among filings that include women, fewer than 8 percent of patents list women as the primary inventor. In those cases, the patents are most often for technologies associated with “traditional female roles, such as jewelry and apparel.” Researchers attribute the patent gender gap to a shortage of women in science, technology, engineering, and math fields—and by extension to the dearth of women who earn degrees in these areas, compared with men.

Everyone knows why. Women don't have the brains for STEM. They become useless social workers and english teachers while men create wealth and raise our standard of living.

--------------------------------------------------------- this discussion reminds me of a discussion about who invented baseball , basketball , the fire mans helmet or the stoplight . Next up will be the woman that invented the table FORK . Most progress and invention was initiated by men and that statement is in no way a statement of hate towards women . Its simply a statement of fact . But hey , if women can invent and explore , thats ok , let them get to work .Exploring the Contributions of Modern Women InventorsHow many decades have our society been pushing women ahead of men and yet this reality hasn't changed.
