Problem with Romney's claim as noted in a CNN blog:

While Romney's claim is true, it lacks important context. Of American jobs lost between January 2009 and March 2012, 92.3% were lost by women. But the statistic does not reflect that men constituted a much larger chunk of the job loss pie in the year leading up to Obama’s inauguration. Romney’s claim also does not reflect that job loss for women began in March 2008, almost a full year before Obama took office.
