Not a female here, but one reason to have a list is that people are always looking for a relatable role model. As a women you would want to avoid looking at these CEOs as role models. You should have a list of reasons why you're avoiding them and bring it up when somebody else non-critically tries to put them on a pedestal.

EDIT: on the other hand as an immigrant (really my only "discriminated against" feature) I wouldn't search for immigrant CEOs as role models, so I'm not sure if it's worth it to look for women role models as a woman.
