“Minority” in this context does not mean having a smaller population. Minority means a group of people that have been historically oppressed or persecuted.
Women are a special kind of minority because even though they make up the majority of population worldwide, they’ve faced oppression for centuries.
Another example would be white people in South Africa—even though they are a minority as a percent, they still aren’t a minority because they don’t face oppression.
Women are the majority of all people. Billionaires are a minority.
Minority does not equal good.

No, minority doesn’t mean that. The phrase you want is disenfranchised groups.
