Abstract

Entrepreneurship is often thought of as a male-only activity, and as a result women tend to be less successful than men in starting their own businesses. This phenomenon is particularly widespread in China. The environment for female entrepreneurs is not open and inclusive. Despite this, there is still a tendency in some mainstream media to use words that describe men to describe female entrepreneurs, such as using words like conquest, risk-taking, domination and control. The objective of the study is to find the image of female entrepreneurs in Chinese newspapers and public’s perceptions of these women. In order to address the research question better, this study will use content analysis to answer the question. The results of the study revealed that both men and women are the same at a personality level and have the same abilities, and there is no situation where a particular gender will have a particular advantage. In this modern society, female people are gradually playing an indispensable role in the society, so we should be sensible about the importance of gender in the workplace and in our lives.
