I don't think they post that stat every year. In 2015 it was about 12%: https://www.ycombinator.com/blog/yc-demographics

But that doesn't really help answer my bigger question, which is why is that number so low?

I did find one stat showing about 20% of US businesses with employees are female-owned, which is itself troubling and leads to more "why?".
