“I’m pretty sick about the way a lot of these women have been completely taken out of these businesses that they’ve built.”

undefinedWomen chief executives are held to higher standards than male leaders, Bumble Inc. chief executive Whitney Wolfe Herd said Tuesday at The Wall Street Journal’s Future of Everything Festival.

“It’s unfair and it’s wrong,” said Ms. Wolfe Herd. “I’mundefined pretty sick about the way a lot of these women have been completely taken out of these businesses that they’ve built.” Ms. Wolfe Herd, who founded the dating-app business in 2014, said she had felt the pressure of being a rare female CEO in America.

“I have been under such a microscope,” she said. “So much scrutiny. The snooping around of looking for something at all times, I mean this will paralyze a woman emotionally, and it’s really wrong.” A number of female founders have been ousted from their businesses for various reasons in recent years.
