I don't think he is but in ff.html this actually deprecates from his point: > It's hard to argue I'm biased against female founders when I have a female cofounder myself Having your wife as a co-founder and using it to substantiate a lack of bias is like having your father in a company (much older) and using it to say 'I am not biased against older people'. Once again while it doesn't mean someone is biased it doesn't really support the point well and maybe even detracts. > And with 3 female partners out of 12, YC has slightly over 3x the venture industry average This is what I call a 'marijuana' comparison. (I am sure there is an exact term for it not what I call it). It's where you try to justify something as 'good' or 'ok' by comparing it to a much worse alternative. Like 'marijuana is not bad compared to alcohol'.
