      Merriam-Webster disagrees with you. People have referred to women as a political minority despite their numerical majority for a very long time.

      Women are undeniably a minority when it comes to being represented in politics/media in general. It’s only in recent history that women have had any meaningful presence in terms of representation in those regards.

      They’re a minority in terms of representation because of said disenfranchisement.
