That sounds like a nice thing for you as a potential investor, but it's not very nice for the female founders.

  But it is, because it means the market will correct the problem quickly - unless there is actually some differential outcome between genders.

    It doesnt if the differential comes from systemic sexism. If female founders underperform because of external sexism then vc that fund female founders will also underperform. This is why it is important to fight sexism even if it costs more. Sexism/racism/etc are not self-correcting under market forces.

      Yes, that's a entirely plausible and unfortunate outcome - in which case the market would not be able to correct it.
