I'm female and my co-founder is also female. I bring the design and the marketing; she brings the tech. We didn't apply this round because we're already edge case candidates and a conflict with the schedule made us pretty much a non-starter for winter.
We're older than the average YC applicants by a couple of decades and we have partners, kids, dogs and mortgages that complicate things slightly. My co-founder has primary custody of her school-aged son and absolutely cannot relocate to SF for three months. I can go though, and would be delighted to; my husband would be equally delighted to hold down the fort here. Unfortunately, I have an immoveable commitment in February, so the winter schedule just wasn't going to fly. We're going to apply for the spring instead, and we're looking forward to the process.
