- conartist6 3y agoI understand it to be wordplay on "no means no", a well-known anti-rape slogan. In repurposing the lingo to be a statement about venture capitalism, there is a lack of respect for the need for such a slogan. I think men a tendency to trivialize that message because it scares us a bit. It's a message of rejection and shame so it's uncomfortable and we naturally to want to twist it around until it isn't threatening anymore.
