> I've never heard someone ask the same of a founder-CEO-dad, worrying about a slightly different dirty little thought: "An expectant father/CEO will fail his company." Well, of course I don't have any way of experiencing both and comparing them, but isn't a pregnancy much more difficult for the pregnant female? No matter how many times the dad runs out to buy watermelon at 4 in the morning, he doesn't have a living thing growing in his uterus. I don't agree with the statement, "a pregnant ceo will fail her company". I might agree with the statement, "all else being equal, the person with less to overcome is more likely to succeed". And likeliness of success is pretty much what VCs do.
