I think we are talking about folks we know, right? Obviously women are still beaten into submission or lit on fire until they stfu in many many other countries, so I am obviously not talking about those folks.
I am not the exception within the group of people I know. I am sorry for you if you don't have a group of successful, educated, ambitious, highly-compensated women for friends. They really make my world a better more exciting place to live. To each her own I guess.
