I believe it's not a taboo, like talking about drugs or religion; on the contrary, it's the lack of promotion of the culture and sport that is poker, but I believe that will change soon. Furthermore, there's a long list of champions, such as:
Barbara Enright (USA) An absolute pioneer, she was the first woman to win a WSOP open event;
Jennifer Harman (USA), one of the most respected outside of high stakes, she won two WSOP bracelets in open events;
Annie Duke (USA) Winner of the Tournament of Champions and with over US$4 million in prizes;
Kristen Foxen (Canada, formerly known as Kristen Bicknell), the current queen of modern women's poker, with 5 WSOP bracelets;
Vanessa Selbst (USA), considered by many to be the best player in history, with almost US$12 million in live tournament winnings and three WSOP bracelets in open events (PLO, Mixed Games and NLHE); 
Liv Boeree (United Kingdom), a former model turned professional, won the EPT Sanremo (the largest individual prize for a woman at the time) and has over US$4 million in winnings;
Shiina Okamoto (Japan) Made history in 2024 and 2025 by winning the WSOP Ladies Championship consecutively (two years in a row), something very rare.
Rosana Thorlay — First Brazilian to win a WSOP bracelet (Ladies Online).
Bárbara Akemi — Won the Ladies WSOP Online in another edition.
Other strong contenders in the category: Kathy Liebert, Maria Ho, Victoria Coren Mitchell, Annette Obrestad and many others.
