Polls suggest half of Wales ' next crop of MPs could be women, achieving gender balance for first time.
Bethan Sayed , who stepped down at last Senedd elections to spend time with her newborn son, said women could be better supported by their parties if general election dates were set in advance.
Ms Sayed said political parties that relied only on candidates would find it harder to encourage women.
Reform UK said they did not consider anything in candidate selection other than "is this person the best choice to represent the party?" Conservatives and Liberal Democrats were also given the chance to comment.
Reform UK say positive discrimination should not play a factor in society where everyone is equal.
