I wasn’t suggesting that you did make a moral claim. Your comment didn’t really address the concern that sexism at large is effectively causing sexism in the VC industry. If sexism towards female founders in the intended market is a major risk factor (I don’t believe it can be considered major, which is up for debate), then it’s a VCs opportunity to cut through to the core of what makes the _business_ and its _products_ viable... not simply to pass because the market won’t like a female founder as much as a male founder. But then that’s what a VC should be doing anyway. So founder gender and any perception of market bias towards that should become an increasingly insignificant factor in the funding process.
