Impact of Gender in Search

Slightly political question, but I've been talking to my wife about search for a while and it's an area where she's pretty interested. She's planning on pursuing an acquisition at this point and is more than capable, but is curious about the gender dynamics. I figured this community could have some helpful insights. Can anyone share stories about searching as a woman, any unique challenges or opportunities that have come up? Are there industries or types of businesses where the dynamics are uniquely challenging for women to step in as new operators? Last I checked the numbers, there were much more men in the space than women, but for those who are open to share I (and my wife) would love to hear about your experience.
