That % isn't really surprising considering the patriarchal history of the world. You couldn't possibly get to 50% unless you over-represented women in the near present or adjusted notability standards. However if it were 17.47% for current times, that would be a significant bias that needs to be addressed. It still might not hit 50/50 given reduced opportunities for women still today, but it should be moving ever closer.
